Super Angie...Zwift



My husband got himself and the boys a ZWIFT account. This is pretty awesome.  Now instead of just watching a movie while on the trainer in the basement, they are doing awesome courses all over the world.

Rick has also been doing ZWIFT running.

Do you like any programs like this?

Too bad there isn't a ZWIFT skating. lol

Super Angie... God has a plan

Do you ever stress yourself out thinking "what if"? I do. All too often actually. I worry. But I firmly believe God is in charge, so I always go to Him. And he always says the same thing. "Angie, I have a mission for you. Don't worry. I'm in control and I have this covered".  Over and over. He let's me know what my mission is and that he will take care of the rest, so long as I focus on my mission.

But like most mortals, I freak out and get anxious. He never fails to comfort me, "Remember, I have a plan. Be patient".

Today I saw some amazing things happen.

My oldest son got back his test scores and HE PASSED THE NATIONAL EMT TEST! Yessss! It's official. Dallin is now an EMT.  I have watched Dallin go to the Lord in prayer and ask time and time again what his mission on earth is, and each time, he has moved in the direction God sends him. This is just one of the many things God has prompted my son to do.

Another amazing thing is that I got a small job. It's not much but it is something I've been praying about and God has just been saying "Have patience...it's coming. " Today it came.



If you find that life is too much right now, turn to Him in Prayer.  And then sit and listen. He will answer you, I promise!

Super Angie... writing

I love writing. I mean, look at my social media and you can tell..I really like communicating. I'm not a super social person but rather, I'm a communicator...I like to communicate online. I'm not sure that makes any sense.

Anyway... I've been doing stuff online since the late 80s. Yes. I was a Compuserve girl. Not AOL (although I did like getting all those free AOL coasters, eh, I mean DISKS in the mail). But really. Prodigy and Compurserve and those message boards is what I liked. I would chat everyday with people all over the US. We'd talk about skating. Gordeeva and Grinkov in particular. I remember once, some dude (who was a professional photographer) sent me a gorgeous framed pic he took of G&G performing in STARS ON ICE right after Daria was born. Amazing.

In HS (early 90s) our school district had a inner web chat room for students. I was asked to work with the district and kind of be in charge. I guess that's when it all started going down hill for me. Just kidding. I loved chat rooms and I still do love chatting online with friends and family.

Later I started using yahoo message boards. In fact that's how I met my husband Rick. I'll tell that story another time. I was on an adoption message board for a year. I still have a rooster Christmas ornament someone from that board mailed me. Amazing the generous, kind people you can meet online. I also got many acting gigs from message boards.

In 2001, I was on a skating message board and I met a bunch of really fun skating fans, some of whom were going to go to the 2002 Olympics. We decided to meet up at the games in Salt Lake City. We actually met up the year prior to the games and attend 4 Continents Championships. I often wonder if I could locate those people now on FB. Hmmm....







Super Angie...unboxing

There is a strange fascination in watching people unbox a product they get on the mail. I'm guilty. I've watched famous skaters on Instagram unbox everything from makeup to sport drinks.

My husband recently has gotten into Unboxing. He LOVES training. I mean, like really loves to train. He wakes at 4am to run and then after work he does a bike ride. He also likes to lift weights.

He recently got SWIFT for him and boys. They seem to really love it. Anyway, here is a fun video of Rick unboxing the Stryd Footpod.  Hikercize- Stryd Footpod.

Do you like watching unboxing videos? Maybe I'll make one. :)
