You know, I don’t think I’ve ever really introduced myself to you all! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted so I thought I’d share some random and maybe silly facts about myself.
I HATE lima beans and ham. But I loved my Grandma, so I would swallow them whole with milk when she made them for dinner because I didn’t want to hurt her feelings. Same with beets. If you put beets in your milk, it will turn it purple! That’s my favorite color too.
I got heat stroke one summer about 7 years ago and can’t seem to tolerate the heat anymore.
I’m a Mom to Ryan (27), Savannah (17) and Shey (14).
I’m in the process of planting a garden. So excited to grow our own food. Need to set up a compost next.
I love to snow ski and ride horses but don’t get much time to do either.
I have a fear of spiders, but started following Gretel and Bea, the pet spiders on TicTok and now my arachnophobia is SUPER confused! They’re Regal Jumping Spiders and I think I love them……???
My first job was as a picker for strawberries at age 11. That’s when you got your SSI card, with your first job. Let’s just say my handwriting has improved a lot since then.
I have Tarlov Cyst disease.
I won a BBQ at my Dad’s company picnic raffle. I was 4. He entered me into every raffle he could after that. I won every time.
Growing up we moved every 1-2 years so by the time I was a freshman in high school, I was on my eighth school.
I’m a licensed respiratory therapist and a nationally certified Pilates Teacher.
I LOVE footwork! On the reformer, on the Cadillac, on the chair, I don’t care! I could spend an hour just doing footwork.
I often tell my clients, oooh! This is my favorite exercise. They have begun to tell me, “Gretchen. Every Pilates exercise is your favorite exercise.” Hmm…….they’re not wrong!
I do better with espresso than coffee.
And I look forward to the NFL’s Draft Day every year!
