I went to High Point, NC this past weekend to visit my Mama.

Mama does not have Internet. She doesn’t even have a neighbor with unsecured wireless (oh, yeah, I tried)

Therefor, I had time on my hands to ponder.

I was reminiscing about this so-called journey to becoming a badass. I mean, looking back at the posts… isn’t this blog mis-named? Maybe it would be better titled as: TStorm Fails Every Day ?

I mean – I’ve got to kick this shit in gear.

So it’s on. (again)

I’m amping up my commitment to becoming badass.

I’ve divided up the areas in my life that I will make a commitment to “cleaning up”

Food
Going to follow the Paleo diet. Video on CrossFit Coastal’s post inspired me. This also means I’ll have to cook. I HATE cooking and grocery shopping — so this is going to be painful. I’m going to journal my food entries here.

Volunteerism/Do things I don’t wanna do
Let’s face it. I’m not spontaneous. I hate change. I procrastinate, then do things that I’M ALREADY GOOD AT.
Well, no more. I’m going to take myself out of my comfort zone every day. Like, try out for roller derby. Volunteer at a soup kitchen. Mow my own lawn and stop playing the “poor me, my husband’s deployed, will you do it for me” card. Go into that scary biker bar in Hampstead and order a Paleo drink.

Church
Not just go to church – but get involved and make being the Christian Jesus wants me to be a part of every thought/action. Make attending church a no-brainer for the week’s schedule. God has done so much for me. I need to stay present and totally aware that I’m in His grace at all times. I also am going to start planning the next short-term mission trip!

Marriage
Be a better wife. I’ll have to google my way through this.

Pinch Pennies so I can be more Generous
Save $. Stop crazy spending. Have more cash. Then, give more. Period.
I started by donating to Zeke’s Fight Gone Bad campaign. Mine is here.

Dog Training
Phizz is about to go to school just like Mommy. At this school, Phizz learns that Mommy is the ALPHA DOG.

Fitness
Get Fit as F*ck. Amp up workouts. Do as RX’d. (and watch my posture throughout the day)
I’ll be posting my workouts on here

Meet more people
Not just meet people – but get to KNOW them. And learn from them. Hidden gems everywhere!

Who’s with me?
