30 Day Photo Challenge

Julie and I have been teaming up together to keep the motivation train running.  We have scoured Pinterest for different challenges. We did a plank challenge and decided to switch it up a bit for October.  Instead of a different exercise challenge, we decided to make it a bit different and take advantage of technology.  Considering nearly everyone has a phone with a built in camera, we took on a photo challenge.



We are up to Day 12 now and today's challenge is SUNSET.  Looks like it might be a nice one tonight too!

Make sure you are following along with us.  We have our own hashtag on Instagram, so find us there!

Motivation And My Lack Of It

It has been so long since I have sat down to devote some time to this blog.  It's not that I haven't wanted to or couldn't come up with something to write....it's just.....meh!

Life has been a roller coaster this year....full of emotions, busyness and nothing real important.

We sold a house and built one on to my parents.  The summer was busy with trying to get things set up and just enjoy our time.

Everything sort of went on the back burner.  I got lazy and when things were done for the day, instead of going to spend even 20 minutes on the treadmill, I sat down on the couch and wasted time on the computer.  I paid no focus to what I was eating and everything that goes along with that.

I stopped making TOPS a priority, because I wasn't seeing any results and just kept dropping and gaining the same 10 pounds!

I have been more active on my Facebook page, because I can easily post a picture for motivation or an interesting article, but I want to get back into being on here....this is my place to write it all out...the good and bad and have you follow along with me....that is assume there are still "YOU's" out there following this blog.

It's Thanksgiving here....I'm going to enjoy this last long weekend until Christmas.  I'm going to have turkey, stuffing, potatoes and dessert and not feel guilty.  I am also going to focus on getting back into the routine of exercise.  I think I need to create myself another walking challenge and a roadtrip based on my favorite show.

My bestie Julie and I are doing a photo challenge for the month of October....you can follow along with us on Instagram with our special hashtag  #FaCaingPhotos.

Here's to more constant blog updates!!
