good Monday morning.....spring break baby

Well I had an awesome weekend. On Saturday I went to the Aloha Festival. I did have some sticky rice and spam....and some noodles. But I did pretty good. Then on Sunday I spent the entire day out at my daughter's house. Has a great time with her and the kids. Dyed my hair a faint red, love it. I walked 2 miles and seemed to do well, but then I couldn't go to sleep cause the damn knee ached so bad. Same thing today. I got up this morning and took a car load of my little old lady friends to Mexico so they could stock up on their medication. We crossed at Yuma, and everyting was good, nothing scarey. I had a fun time, and laughed my ass off. But, I didn't get any sleep last night, so I am so tired and don't feel like weighing in tonight. I will go 1st thing in the morning. I had an upset tummy all day. I think I will do ok, but last night I kept eating those Healthy Choice fudgesicles when I couldn't sleep. I hope I didn't screw things too much. I had a great time with my sweet 84 year old friend friday night. She cracks me up. I am feeling really great lately, positive, and full of hope. Thanks for all your inspiration. I have been drinking the Exfuse drink, and I can tell a differance. Hope you are all having a great Monday also. Life is GOOD!!

    Dana, so glad to hear things are good with you. You talking about your little ladies makes me think of my great aunt and grandmother, they always told the best stories and always had us laughing. Glad you like you're new hair color.

    sounds like you are keeping busy :) Popsicles can be very addictive ;)~ But I guess it's better than a tub of ice cream ;)

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
