Sober October Day 19 – Rest
Another day down, another success I'm actually writing this considerably later in the day than normal. Not that it's late... it's actually still before 6 am Keri and I had plans to run together this morning at home. It's the full moon and we try to make it a point to run together each month … Continue reading Sober October Day 19 – Rest
Sober October – Day 18 – Sorry That Was a Big Gap
That was a big gap. My bad. We spent the weekend celebrating Keri's birthday. Like I said in my Instagram Post, we will leave her age up to interpretation 😉 . Every year for her birthday, I take Keri to St. Louis to go shopping for clothes. This year was no different. Now I Don't … Continue reading Sober October – Day 18 – Sorry That Was a Big Gap
Sober October Day 14 – Don’t Blame Meat For What Sugar Did

Waking at 0400, write for approximately 20-25 minutes, feed the calves, then head out to work. I've changed it up as I am now parking right at work and … Continue reading Sober October Journal: Day 7

Sober October Day 2
Mama and fresh baby born this morning! Day 2 complete No sugar for 48 hours. I'll be honest... the first day was much tougher than the second. Going on a date night without getting any dessert was extremely tough for me. Eating dinner at one of our favorite BBQ spots last night, the waitress kept … Continue reading Sober October Day 2
