Wishing I Was Some Where Else

What to know a secret?? I don't want to be at work today. I want to be home painting my kitchen. I want to be shopping for the baby shower. I want to be any where but here. But here I am am! So I will make the best of it. Things are still humming right along. I am eating much better. Less over eating. Eating good for me food. I am loving what I put in my mouth. Not lying in bed all the live long day. Feeling engaged and present. I walked about 2 miles with my buddy then I rode the bike to work. THEN I got on the treadclimber while I watched The Closer. Another 45 mins of hot, sweating fun. Need to push the H20. Drink up!

I am getting so excited for the shower and my family coming. I don't really have anything planned. I feel relaxed and calm. For now. I am going to enjoy it. Anybody know I good sweet and sour meatball recipe......Anyone......TJ? We are going Hawaiian for the shower.

Best get to at least looking busy. My body is here but my head is planning fun! Keep the mood and the food real...............

    Don't you hate when work gets in the way of life? I feel that same way today - would rather be anywhere but here!

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...
