Back near the beginning of August I wrote about my fitness and plans to get back into a good routine and health. Today I hit a couple milestones so I thought I would give a quick update. My main goals were to keep my physical activities varied and not only doing one thing. For bothContinue reading “Fitness update”

New Running Goal
It was in mid July when I guess I started running again this year after taking a long detrimental break. After the 10K race for the Valley Harvest Marathon in October of last year I basically stopped running. Getting started again was hard but it’s come along well. This year after the race I decidedContinue reading “New Running Goal”
Saving Money
Besides vacations it’s been years since I’ve purposely set aside money to save for something I’ve wanted. It’s always been much easier to somehow justify and throw it on a credit card and worry about paying it off afterwards. Luckily for the most part I don’t usually spend much money on myself, but I doContinue reading “Saving Money”
BlogJam 2015
When I first found out about the BlogJam conference that was being planned for Halifax I was very excited. Reading about many of my co-workers who travel to WordCamps and other conferences related had me a little envious. Just the lead up to the conference is what lead me to discover the new WordPress meetupContinue reading “BlogJam 2015”

I had just hit my weight loss and fitness goal and set some other goals for myself. Looking back I’ve made good progress on my three other goal areas:Continue reading “One Year Ago”
Things Not Working? Change It Up!
Last week was the first week at Automattic that I was starting to feel stressed and a little burnt out. This weekend I took sometime to try to figure out why, because nothing had changed. Reflecting back it seems like it was a combination of things. Luckily all the things are in my own controlContinue reading “Things Not Working? Change It Up!”
A New Person, New Attitude, and New Goals
Seven and a half months of hard work and change have finally paid off. This morning when I weighed myself I’ve finally hit my goal. My weight is now 178 lbs which means two things, I’ve lost a total of 80 lbs and my BMI is now in the healthy range. See where I wasContinue reading “A New Person, New Attitude, and New Goals”
