    Celebrate the Joy of Reading with Library Card Sign-Up Month

    September 10, 2021 / No Comments

    If you enjoy reading, there’s no doubt you probably have a library card. From the time both my kids could walk, we spent many hours each week at the library, especially in the summers. One summer my daughter even volunteered as a library intern and loved it. We are fortunate to belong to the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Library, which allows us access to books and other resources at 21 area libraries. Another summer, we challenged ourselves to visit as many libraries as we could and planned excursions around the visits. A few months ago, I interviewed an intelligent young lady in our community who is on track to read 200 books this year–and she’s only…

Celebrating 23 years! Celebrating 23 years!
I am in shock today. I started the Metabolic Reboo I am in shock today. I started the Metabolic Reboot program six weeks ago because I was tired of feeling sluggish, anxious, and not having my clothes fit right. I was working out six days a week and restricting my calories and it wasn’t working. By partnering with @susanballardfitness, I began working with an accountability coach, tracking my macronutrients, and adding in more walking, lifting weights, and resistance training. I’ve lost a few pounds, but more importantly, fat is turning to muscle and I’ve lost ELEVEN inches without starving myself! I am beyond grateful and have more energy than I’ve had in years. #healthyliving #metabolicbalance #susanballardfitness
It was about a year ago that I made the decision t It was about a year ago that I made the decision to leave my job as a magazine editor. I had worked as a freelance writer for the publication for 10 years, and then as editor for three. I always thought that would be the pinnacle of my career. But I was exhausted, stressed out, and never had a break from the deadlines, even when I was on vacation. I took a leap and decided to focus my efforts on my own writing and podcast. I am more fulfilled than ever, am about to take my podcast weekly, have the opportunity to create digital courses on podcasting and true crime writing, am more than halfway through a tough revision of a suspense/thriller novel, am publishing a contemporary YA novel in the next year, and much more! Yes, I am busy but it is on my own terms and I have complete creative control over everything I do. This never would have happened without the support of my friends and family and the strength to believe in myself. If I can do it, anyone can!
