Last hump day in March

Good morning! Wed already. Time does fly. I have good food days the best few days. No food comas and I have been walking, walking, walking. H20 is much better. Scale didn't move this past week, but I feel better about my choices. Clothes are fitting better. Spent yesterday out at my daughter's. She made a wonderful dinner of WW taco soup. It was so good. Then a skinny cheesecake. YUM. I had left over WW burrito for lunch that she made. YUM! The kids were adorable. Everyone should be greeted the way I was greeted yesterday. I have gotten some house cleaning jobs this week. It's hard work, but it pays the rent. All in all I am feeling more positive and less anxious. I have spent everyday in the FHC doing "homework". I was looking at census records yesterday. Trying to read that old fashion handwriting is something that will take practice. I am getting comfortable with going there and asking all the questions I need to. Staying busy.........life is good! Keep the mood and the food real...............

    I've always said there's no greeting like a dog can give you...hmmm, sounds like adoring grandchildren should be added to that list!

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...
