Just do it

Had a great weekend. Spent the entire Saturday afternoon in the cool movie theatre. I saw Away We Go.....it was a quite, funny, thoughtful film. The 2 actors that played the couple in search of where to raise their unborn baby did a great job. Then I went to see Taking of Pelham 123. Totally different movie. Loud, lots of swearing and shooting and explosions. I liked it too. I mean seriously, who doesn't like a good explosion every now and then. Then I went swimming...it was so stinkin hot it was like taking a bath, but it was nice visiting with my friend while we swam. Sunday I went out to my daughter's early got the kids up, bathed them, got them dressed and we all fixed breakfast. There is nothing cuter then watching little kids try to crack an egg......pure entertainment! I love doing that for my daughter and son in law, they both got to sleep in. I really enjoyed church this week too, not that I don't every week.....lol

Weekend was really good food and exercise wise. Tonight is weigh in at WW. I feel lighter this week, so we'll see. If I can't just put a small dent in recovering the 3,9 lbs I gained last week I will be happy. My head has most definently been in the game this week. I think last week's problem was alot hormones, FOR SURE. I am learning that the bad times don't last forever, and neither do the good. Everything cycles back around. The trick is to ride out the bad times as best as you can. Try not to do any more damage then you have to....lol.

I am suppose to have the week off, but I have things to do, so I am just going to be here part time to get some things done. I am planning a trip to the dinosaur museum, and the IMAX with the grandsons this week, and then a sleep over with GeGe. They love it, and I love to do it. Then I am going to go out to my friend's who lost her son last week and we are going to do something fun...a movie or something. She said she needs a haha....a good laugh! I am just the woman for the job. At the very least she can laugh AT me.....lol.

I am hating this sweaty heat! I am getting up and out the door to walk before 5 am, cause once the sun is up it is just too damn hot! After it's over I am so glad I choose to get my ass up and just do it!!

Just do it.......keep the mood and food real....MAKE it a great day. Only you can do it!

    Even with that awful heat you managed to have a great weekend. Heat and hormones - what a troubling combo that is! I'm going through the humidity and hormones episode and it is not pretty. The humidity always makes me feel like I'm being smothered by a wet blanket. Bleh! Thank God for a/c!

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...
