Welcome

Hi. Welcome to my world.

My name is Joyce.  I am a wife, mom, employee, friend, volunteer, photographer, just to name a few of the hats I wear.

I am making some changes to my world and look forward to sharing them with you.  Currently I am working to get fit and healthy. I have been overweight for the better part of 20 years and suddenly have a desire to be healthy and take up running and biking.  Strange?  Yes, I think so too.  But that's where I am.  My goal isn't a pant size or a number on the scale.  It is simply to be able to commute to work by bike within the next month and to run a 10k by the end of fall. I hope you will join me as I go down this road.

As you may take from the title, I am a bit of a princess. I am the sole female resident in my home.  I have my husband whom I adore and 2 amazing sons.  I love my family dearly and love watching my boys grow and change and am looking forward to seeing the men they become.  I am also daughter of the Most High King thru the redemptive work of Jesus Christ.  So as you can see, I really am a princess.  I even have a tiara.

I will be adding lots of ideas and training schedule and menu plans and ways to save the most money you can for the life you want to live.  I am a coupon gal and love it. I am able to buy so much more for my family than I could before.  Who wants to pay $4 for a box of cereal?  Wouldn't you rather get it for $.75?  I sure would and I do.

I hope as you follow along on my journey I can encourage you along the way and we can both take something from this experience.

Well, it's past my bed time so I better wrap it up.  Sweet dreams and take care.
