Weight Loss Challenge


It is more like a get back into shape challenge.
My girlfriend and I decided to get back to the weight we were when we first met several years ago. We have 12 weeks to do it. To show off our success, we have planned a girl's trip to the beach.
Wish me luck!
I have to admit; last night, I had a Coke float and pizza. Not what I would call a running start!

Blog, Blog, Blog


I'm home! I have so much about which to write...Easter, my parents with 3 kids, my Grandmother and her ageing, vacation activities, time with my husband, coming home to kids, and a weight loss challenge.
I have my work cut out for me. Stay tuned...

Good Manners


While on the phone with Don tonight, Cole asks, "Um, Dad, may you please, when you get home, play Hot Wheels tracks with me?"
He is really listening when I preach to him about manners. Go figure?

Vacation!!!


Don and I are leaving for Sedona, without the kids, tomorrow...so, if you are wondering why my posts are not posting...that's why.

Grateful Sunday & HAPPY EASTER


I am thankful for all things Easter. I think this is my favorite Holiday of the year. I do wish I had planned more "Christian" Easter celebration. I truly tried, but it just didn't happen this year. Well, I do still have the rest of the day. I think we will make those Easter Story Cookies.

More about my Easter to come...why it's my favorite Holiday, and why it was so hard this year to make it a proper celebration.
