good, not perfect...that's ok!

Making plans for the weekend. I am taking the Gsons to the drive in and then a sleep over. Bird Park in the morning with them. So it won't be much of a workout. I will probably go for a long walk out by my daughter's house when I drop the boys off. The boys want me to make hotdogs to take to the movie, so I will. Then some popcorn (healthy) and then maybe a few tootsie rolls. We'll se how in control I feel. If I just take a few I can't eat too many. I love the drive in. This time I am taking my car and we are going to stay in it. The only kids movie at the drive in is The Tooth Fairy. I guess I could force myself to look at The Rock for about 90mins.

I got in a good walk on the treadclimber this morning. Very sweaty. I didn't feel like walking in the dark by myself. My walking buddy has been sick. Hopefully she will get back to it next week. Food has still been pretty good. Not perfect, not suppose to be.

So glad that I have had a good week this week. Starting to feel human again. More like myself. Keep the mood and the food real....

    I liked it when my kids were small and I had an excuse to go to the G-rated movies. That actually sounds like it would be a lot of fun and The Rock isn't too hard to look at, is he?

    Yeah, I think I might have to take my daughter to see that & force myself to look at him as well. ;)

    Enjoy the drive in! We don't have any left around here & I hate that my kids may not experience that.

    Best wishes,

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...
