Aren't we marvelous!

Just checking in real quick. I have been super busy the past couple of days. Had my Gkids over last night so my daughter could go get a pedicure. We had a great time. They just keep getting better and better.

Had my therapist appointment yesterday. I am happy with the way things are going. I am feeling less anxious and more in control in where my life is going. I am staying off the scales for now. Food hasn't been perfect. H20 has been awesome. Have really been walking extra far the past couple of morning. Close to 4 miles this morning. Rode my bike into the wind this morning and my legs are feeling it. Feels good.

Over the past few months I have read about all my fellow bloggers struggles and triumphs and some heartache. I am amazed by the strength of the human spirit. Aren't we all MARVELOUS!

Keep the mood and the food real.........Thanks for your examples

    I'm a big fan of coaching (therapy). Glad you felt your session was worthwhile. I think most of us can benefit from an unbiased opinion and a new perspective from time to time. I just wish services like these were more accessible.

    You are, in point of fact, very marvelous.

    Glad you are well --
    Aren't we all "riding into the wind" sometimes?
    Feels good to look back when it's getting done.

    I know YOU are for sure, Dana!

    Sounds like you're on an upswing!

    I agree with Roxie ... it's beneficial for all of us to have someone to load off on and get feedback.
    I know the 3 of us suffer from "crazybrain" at times.

    Whenever I read you I am reminded to go drink more water! Thanks! I need to get one of those new fancy bpa-free water bottles and just fill it in the morning and afternoon and take it with me wherever I go.

    Glad things are going well and that you are focusing on overall health..inside and out. Sounds like you are doing a great job!

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...
