I am fortunate to know Sarah McBride. She is an amazing woman and an incredible advocate. She was recently on Seth Myers promoting her book “Tomorrow Will Be Different. Love, Loss, and the Fight for Trans Equality”. Check out her interview, then get and read her book!
Today is the last day of 2017. Please be safe in whatever you do. In the meantime, join Pink in Raising Your Glass and welcome in 2018.

Saying goodbye to 2017
It’s that time of year again. It’s the time of the year when we look back at 2017 and reflect on the joys, pains, and sadness of the year. Here is a collection of 2017 look backs I thought you might enjoy:
Thursday Music: Dixie Chicks: Not Ready to Make Nice

When things seem a little out of control – this week (or this year) in our country – I like to blast Halestorm’s Mayhem. I then am able to refocus on fighting the good fight.
I LOVE the Foo Fighters! I was really excited when they dropped their most recent single.
I was even more excited about this new single when, while messing around on YouTube, I found this interview about the reason for the lyrics. Enjoy! (Caution: There is some bleeped language in the interview).
Who trains Wonder Woman?
Recently, I was in a conversation with the women from my gym. The question came up, “Who is more of a badass, Wonder Woman or General Antiope, the woman who trained her?” Most of the women in this conversation said “Wonder Woman”. You’d be surprised to hear that I said Antiope. Yes, Wonder Woman had […]
I recently posted an article: “The Wonder Women Around Us: Amanda Hall-Alder, CrossFitter, and Strongman Competitor”. I’d like to make “The Wonder Women Around Us” a regular part of Blogging Blue. I know enough pretty awesome women that I could make the series all about the people I know. I don’t want to do […]
