Alright, I’m going to bring out my inner nerd this week because I finally finished the “A Court of Thorns and Roses” (ACOTAR) series – at least the ones that are published. I hear more may be coming. First, this is not a series I would have necessarily picked up on my own. The “Romantasy” […]

So, I know I just wrote a blog about Dobby a few weeks ago, but we’ve got a milestone coming up in a few days that warrants another post. 🙂 Dobby’s “Gotcha Day” is October 8, and this year marks SIX full years with my best boy! Seems absolutely wild that it was already that

Thank you all for thinking of me on my birthday earlier this week! Year 30 was a pretty great one, and I have high expectations for year 31. The only thing I really wanted for my birthday this year was to spend the day with Dan. Since my birthday usually falls around the time harvest
On a hopefully much lighter note than most of the other stuff you’re seeing on social media currently, I’d love to give you a little pupdate on Mr. Dobby. Last week he had surgery on his leg to remove a fatty cyst that was growing on his joint. As many of you dog owners know,

I tried something new again this week! Believe it or not, but I’ve lived in South Dakota for a majority of my life and I’ve never been to a rodeo before. I even lived a mile away from the rodeo grounds when I was little and all through high school – but it took me
Big news! If you’re reading this, you may have already noticed, but my website has gone through a big makeover since my last post. I’d like to introduce the NEW and improved Swimming Through Life website! I’ve been working really hard over the last two weeks to get the new site up and running and

This week, I’m here to tell you all the reasons why summer is the best season of all: Haha totally kidding, I do like summer, but I don’t like the heat. I’m not so secretly looking forward to some cooler fall temps. However, once I look past the blistering heat, I do enjoy summer activities.

I want to talk a little bit this week about self-discipline – especially when it comes to exercise. People tell me frequently that I’m crazy for working out as much as I do, or that I wake up before the sun several days a week to make sure I get said workout in. Like I
