Last weekend, I participated in the ACT (Autism Care & Treatment) Today! for Military Families 5k/10k in Fiesta Island (Mission Bay).  I did the 5k last year and I really like the cause that this event supports, so this race was a must-do this year!  This time was a little different, I completed the 10k (my… Continue reading ACT Today! for Military Families 5k/10k

Costumes were encouraged and… Continue reading The Super (Hero) Run

50 Things I Learned From the Military Spouse Wellness Summit

Last week I attend a wellness summit for military spouses.  The best part about this summit?  It was completely online!  Score!  No need to worry about childcare arrangements, I could listen to each speaker right from the comfort of my couch...or bed.  Each day (for five days), the links to presentations of two different speakers… Continue reading 50 Things I Learned From the Military Spouse Wellness Summit
