Hey guys! 👋😂 Just stopping by to say HELLO to everyone! I’ve been MIA… and just when I thought life was finally going to mellow out a little, it said, “Oh, you thought?” 😂🤦‍♀️ Things have officially reached a whole new level of CHAOS, but I wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. I’ll be popping in every now and then because, well… life is lifing ONCE AGAIN 🙏 I’m still trying to hold it down on the fitness side, thanks to my amazing coach, @Aaron Wong . 🙌 So much grace, Aaron! 😂 I just want you to know that you are seriously the BEST. Thank you for keeping me accountable even when life is throwing me curveballs from every direction. I barely made it to the gym last night, but guess what? I MADE IT! 💪 And I gave it everything I had. These days, just getting through the gym doors deserves a participation trophy. 😂🏆 I’ve barely been home because my mother-in-law is now in hospice, and she has 11 kids and 7 who are flying in one by one from overseas…. my uber driving experience continues.. . 🚗✈️ I finally made it home this morning and crashed until 4 PM. YES… 4 PM. 😳😂 My body apparently submitted a formal resignation letter. But honestly, we’re just taking it one step at a time and getting through each day as it comes. ❤️ And then, in the middle of all this chaos, one of my sisters-in-law showed up with the BEST surprise, fresh seafood from New Zealand that her husband literally DOVE for to bring back for us here in the U.S.! 🦞🐟🇳🇿 AND New Zealand chocolates. 🍫 AND meat pies. 🥧 Y’all… I LOST IT. 😂😂😂 Forget everything else for a minute…. PASS ME THE MEAT PIE! 🤣 if you’ve ever had a NZ meat pie.. you know wussup 🤤 Anyway, sending lots of love to everyone. ❤️ I hope you’re all doing well, and I’ll be checking in whenever life stops body-slamming me long enough to breathe. 😂 One day, one workout, one airport pickup, and apparently one meat pie at a time. 🙏😂❤️

🥹 When You Realize They’re Actually Listening!! My mini me proudly walks over to me and says, “Momma… you want to see what I made for lunch?” Me: “Sure, what you got?” She proudly tells me: “I have my protein, my carbs—white rice—and my veggies.” 🥹🎶 MUSIC. TO. MY. EARS. Because she didn’t say, “I made eggs, rice, and kimchi.” She looked at her plate and recognized protein + carbs + veggies. And I’m over here like… WAIT. YOU’VE BEEN LISTENING TO ME?! 😂😂 Sometimes you wonder how much your kids actually absorb when you’re talking about nutrition, fueling your body, building balanced meals, and making better choices. Then moments like this happen. No lecture. No “you should eat this.” No Momma putting the plate together for her. She made it herself. She understood what was on her plate. And she was proud to show me. 🥹❤️ I’m STOKED. It’s one thing for me to work on my own nutrition and fitness journey, but seeing some of those habits quietly rub off on my mini me? That hits differently. Mama proud moment. 💛💪 :::

The Mister is officially back at the gym now that he knows he doesn’t have a meniscus tear, and apparently that means the gym stories are back too 😂. He came home telling me he actually helped a lady who was struggling with the leg press machine. Now…this caught my attention because the Mister doesn’t exactly walk around the gym volunteering as customer service 🤣. So naturally I asked: “Why do you pick and choose who you help? What does someone have to do to qualify for Mister Assistance?” 😂 He said, “I don’t mind helping people who aren’t stuck up or snotty. She was just trying to work out and the machine got stuck, so I showed her how to use it. She thanked me.” Me: “Well…I guess you would NEVER help me because I have a permanent f*ck-off face at the gym.” 😂 He starts laughing and says: “No, I’d help you. You don’t look stuck up. You just have a serious face like you came to WORK OUT.” Whew. Apparently I made the cut. 😝😂 But of course the story didn’t end there. For those of you who have been around Skool for a while, you already know the Mister loves giving our regular gym characters nicknames. Well, apparently a new character has entered the building. He tells me, “This girl walked into the gym like she was Cindy Crawford.” 😂 And immediately I had to defend this complete stranger. Me: “WHY do you always have to be a dream crusher?! What if her whole fitness goal is to walk into that gym feeling like Cindy Crawford?! LET HER LIVE!” 😂😂😂 He just started cracking up. Listen…if walking into the gym like you’re on a runway is what gets you through the door and keeps you coming back… Walk like Cindy Crawford, baby. 💃😂 Confidence first. The gains can come later. 💪😝 And apparently every Tuesday I get a new episode of The Mister: Gym Edition. 🎭🤣

Took my daughter in for her routine braces check today, and Dr. Baum had us cracking up! 😂 He started by explaining that if we happened to see his staff sniffing the highlighters, not to worry — he accidentally bought scented highlighters. 🤣 Apparently, kids have been walking in and questioning whether the staff are “getting high off the highlighters.” 💀😂 So now Dr. Baum feels like he has to make a disclaimer! Of course, I had to tease him and say, “Maybe you should just tell your staff to do it more discreetly.” 😂 He started laughing. Then, right on cue, I actually saw one of the staff members sniffing one and heard: “OHHHH… this smells like nacho cheese!” 🌮🧀😂 I LOST IT. 🤣🤣🤣 Just a normal day at the orthodontist… apparently scented highlighters are now part of the experience. 😂 Sometimes you just have to appreciate the random little moments that make an ordinary appointment so much more entertaining. ❤️
