I’m the most competitive person I know.
With the exception of Vegas.
As women, it seems we often have a hard time with competition. We’re too worried about being nice, well-liked, feminine… it reminds me of a quote I read long ago that went something like: Why is a woman a bitch and man is strong?
One of the most competitive women I’ve ever seen died yesterday at 64, just 5 years after being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease. She even coached and won the year she was diagnosed. That’s something I loved about Pat Summitt. She wasn’t afraid of being competitive and fighting to win. She knew that competitive drive is what makes you great.

We’re big pizza fans.
But who isn’t?!
When I saw that this month’s Recipe Redux topic was to celebrate another ReDuxer, I knew immediately I was going with the pesto flatbread from the walnut round up.
At least once a week some form of pizza happens in my house. Vegas would eat if for every meal if I let her! Pizza, flatbread… same difference, no? I added my own #strangebutgood twist by making it a Walnut Pesto & Shrimp Cauliflower Crust Flatbread.

I’m at a loss for what to say this week.
This weekend doesn’t seem real.
What happened in Orlando… I just can’t comprehend how someone could be so evil.
Vegas and I were at THAT CLUB just 8 months ago. We’d gone to Orlando to play in a softball tournament. Our team won second place, and that’s where we went to celebrate. We danced all night, Vegas blew out the heel on her shoe, we hung out on their patio, I used that bathroom a few times having had far too many bourbon and diets… it was so much fun.

I’m starving.
Thank you, incessant cardio.
I began my day meeting a new client, then I had to go to Whole Foods. There was one right next door to my meeting… I couldn’t help myself.
It was a new-to-me location, so I wandered aimlessly for a good while taking pics of fun things like sparkling wine in a can. I miiiiiight have purchased a 4-pack. Curiosity killed the cat.

My knee is bionic.
Or I’m bat shit crazy.
Let’s be honest… I am certifiable a little crazy. Vegas says it’s part of my charm (granted, next to her I am basically sane).
I decided that I was SICK of doing cardio on the elliptical. That thing makes me feel like a hamster. Instead, I decided to go for a run. I told myself I’d do an easy 30 mins, but it felt good so I went for an hour.

I made it back to the gym!
Funny how that seems like more of a treat when you’re injured.
I’ve ditched the crutches and settled for a limp. Crutches suck, btw. I can deal with the arm strength aspect, but the chafing! Lawd that sucked. Anyway, I made it to the gym. I rode the stationary bike verrrrrrry gently and did some back (all seated – safety third!).
It was a struggle, but I was happy to be moving around!

The move is over.
I hope we stay in this house for a very, very long time.
We’ve found places for about 75% of our belongings. We’ve hooked up the Wii. We’ve even had a dinner party! It feels like home.
