Back from MHE surgery, recovering well

Morning!
Well! Tuesday saw me at the hospital with my husband, in preparation for all the thingees in the yellow circles about my femur removed.
In a nutshell, the surgery went text-book perfect. I could have probably found a more-local doctor than whom I ultimately chose, but I wanted a surgeon for whom bone […]

Diet and weight loss motivation - coming right up!

Morning,
One of the most difficult things to instill within regarding dieting and weight loss is a constant, never-say-die motivation. After all, it’s the motivation that keeps you on the straight and narrow path towards getting healthy and losing weight….and it’s the motivation that stops you from inhaling 3 donuts when Krispy Kreme comes […]

Less than 24 hours and counting!

Well, in less than 24 hours, I will be at the hospital, being sliced and diced for the condition on my right femur. And let me tell you, it cannot come a moment too soon!
I’ve managed to arrange everything while gone. I picked up a pair of 35 pound dumbbells so I […]

‘Enchanted’ beat out ‘Beowulf’ by a football field

Morning,
Well! I might have mentioned a few days ago how I was going to play hooky and escape from the daily Mom demands. My husband was taking care of the kids, and I decided to watch Beowulf in 3d. And I lasted a whole! 8! minutes!
My gosh! The gore! […]

Life, coffee and character - a great read!

Morning,
I just came across the following from Maggie West. It’s terrific!!

….It’s rather difficult for me to ignore anything that is written with life’s obvious “I could of [have] had a V8″ implication in the message.
In keeping with the “giving thanks” topic for this week, I have chosen this “little” insight to post. As […]

What I’m thankful for

Today is Thanksgiving!
I just returned from bundling the kids and husband into the van and visiting my folks up north. We had planned on going to the local Chinese buffet but imagine our surprise when we discovered it had the audacity to be closed! Thus, instead we droveto the local Korean restaurant […]

5 Days and Counting - The Gift of a Day

Morning,
Well! 5 days and counting until the slicing and dicing. And it just can’t come a moment too soon!
But in other good news, today is a positive day for me leg-wise; I woke up feeling rather refreshed and capable. After designing my FabFitMom affiliate tutorial, I went off on my […]

6 days and counting - breaking your boundaries

Morning,
Well! 6 more days and I shall be sliced and diced and hopefully have my leg problem resolved.
That’s the good news.
The bad news is that I’m fast running on empty with regards to all of this. I find myself besieged with emotional roller coasters…and sometimes just want to give myself permission to […]

Self-defense and being knocked flat on your rear

Morning,
Yesterday I had my last class in women’s self-defense, and let me tell you, it was utterly eye-opening to the extreme.
I’d like to urge everyone reading (men and women alike!) to take a self-defense class (mine was given by our local police); the common-sense taught on how NOT to become a victim in the […]

Life is a 4 Letter Word - I think you spell it L-O-V-E

Morning,
I first came across this poem back in 1986 - enjoy!
Life is a four letter word……..
I think you spell it L-O-V-E
It’s really as simple as that……
No, I don’t really think that I can totally describe love
but I do know some things about it.
Seems to me that in order to be in love, you have […]
