Have a Happy Thanksgiving

I'm on my way to Myrtle Beach for the weekend so no post tonight.  I plan on eating a lot and paying for it next week at the gym.  A male friend of mine asked me if I was cooking a turkey I said no, I've never cooked one, don't know how and really have no desire to learn.  Maybe one day but right now Mommy's turkey works and if I find a need to cook a turkey I prepare Cornish hen or a whole chicken.  Poultry is poultry right?

I will try to post once while gone but my mother doesn't have Internet (who doesn't have Internet these days?).  Maybe I can "borrow" from a neighbor.  

Until then...

Eat

Drink

and be Thankful!

Can I Get a Do Over?

Tell me all of this gets better.

I’ve been absent because I’m trying to figure out WTH I’m going to do with my life. Unfortunately I keep thinking: “can I get a do over?”

So, since I can’t get a do-over. I’m learning how to deal with it all. This is it! or is that, This is it?

Dang, life has humbled me the past two years but I’m still here. I can't get a do-over so I'm trying to figure out how to do-now.

Let's see what I come up with.

Yes, the blog is bright red now. I'm so bored with the templates available that I decided to be in your face...how I want to live my life now.

One More Time

Ok...

I didn't get a whole lotta feedback, I'm sure I lost readers from my many hiatuses c'est la vie.

I'm gonna give it one mo' try since I do adore writing and it is such an outlet for me.  I'm going to do some things differently and shake it up a little more.  I'll let you know my plan in a few days and then get started.  The only thing I ask of you is give me more feedback and tell me if you are reading, and what you want more of...then share with your friends!

See you in a few days.  I have to go shake some more thoughts and ideas out of this big ole head!

Being a Heathen Is Hard

It's a good thing I'm not Catholic because I'm sure I would have secured a place in hell by now just from failing Lent promises.  I'm trying and He knows your heart right?  Let's see:

• I'm doing pretty good on not complaining and excuses.  If I feel like complaining I just turn off the phone and go sit in front of the TV.  Yes, I know...I said I wasn't going to watch TV during the week but I've been a little bummed lately.  Hold habits die hard.  I'm getting better though.  I at least don't watch TV 2-3 days a week so that is progress.  
• Chocolate.  I haven't had any and I really do want it, however it is amazing how your appetite changes when you don't eat certain things.  
• Meat and seafood.  I ate it on one Sunday because Sunday is supposed to be a free day and I felt guilty.  I then ate it again this week when I went to a friend's for dinner.  I was so busy avoiding chocolate that my brain didn't even acknowledge the chicken in the pasta until I got home.  When I got home I was so annoyed.  Oh, well...
• Prayer.  I'm doing better.
• Exercising.  Well, here's the thing.  When I'm bummed out I don't exercise and I've been bummed out.  Luckily, I've changed my eating habits and I've lost weight so it's all good but I need to get back to the weights.  

The funny thing is I received an email from my church that they just started a 40 day of fasting on Monday.  I said, no thanks I'll pass.  I'm not rushing to the end of Lent or anything but I will enjoy sushi again.  

On a brighter note, I have been successfully dating!  Can you believe that?  Second and third dates with the same man actually!  He even paid for dinner without any coaxing from me and is very, very easy on the eyes.  

I love Spring!  

What's new with you?
