dress your age

It is a beautiful day here in the desert. Only a high for 80 today. I got up early and walked and biked to work this morning. The knee is doing better. Much better. Official weigh in is today. 188.6 lbs. Up like a pound and half from last week. I am ok with it. It's down from yesterday. So I am moving in the right direction.

Going to catch a ride with my son and go out to do a school thing with my 6 year old Gson. Reading Under the Stars. Sounds fun. Dinner will be out there. My daughter sounded great on the phone this morning. She gave me a real good recipe for a WW brekkie casserole. I think I might try it Easter morning. She is watching the scales like a hawk. I told her to relax or put the damn thing away. Best thing I did was to put my scale somewhere that is hard to get to. Thanks Shelly!

My camera is broke. So no new pictures for a while. Dang it! I guess 49 year old women should not wear overalls. Camera fell out the breast pocket when I bent over. Besides, my kids laughed at my outfit. I need no more proof then that......I looked ridiculous. Message received!

Hope everyone is having a great day. HUMP DAY. I can't believe it is already Wed.

Keep the mood and the food real............dress your age.

    I love overalls. I know I look rediculous in them, but I love them!

    Sorry about your camera! Hope you get a new one soon.

    Have fun at the under the stars thing. Sounds interesting.

    I should listen to my own advice and stay away from anything with numbers - scales, fat monitors, tape measures, dumb bells...oh wait, that one I can handle!

    Sorry to hear about your camera. But dressing your age? What is that anymore?!?

    Have fun with your grandson tonight - I'm sure he will be so happy to have you there for his school event!

    Not dressing your age sounds like fun! I've never owned a pair of overalls :)

    A 49 year old woman should wear whatever she WANTS to wear!!!!

    Besides, if people expect us to dress our age, next they'll demand we act our age!

    Well, I don't think it's the fact that you're 49. I think it's that you're over 10. I don't think anyone over 10 should be wearing overalls. ;)

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...
