I am getting better at it, thanks to yoga, but it is still a battle most days. for the Week of February 28-March 4/11- Spending Time With Family Edition. I also seem to expect things sooner than is reasonable sometimes which also isn’t good. My hubby often has to remind me to slow down and just be for a while.

This weekend while we are in Vancouver, I am going to take my hubby out for a great dinner to thank him for all of his support with this family stuff. Just like Money Ning mentioned, we can splurge sometimes without it ruining our goals. It just requires balance. How do you manage your family finances? Any tips to share?

As thankful as I am for these days off, I rarely celebrate the day how our four fathers would have liked. For me, it’s the first weekend of March Madness. The federal government, which I love so dearly, gives us 10 pre-selected holidays each year.

I am 5’2” tall, average build with a natural hour-glass body, have wide shoulders for a woman, and have a naturally high muscle mass in my legs and arms thanks to my Irish and German ancestry. The Body Mass Index thinks I should weigh between 103-136 pounds to be “healthy”, but I am ultimately aiming for 135-140.
