Today I drove sis-in-law to the arthritis doctor in Shreveport. So here I sit waiting.
I watch people coming and going noticing that the majority is older women. Reminds me of what I have to look forward to. ha... Actually I have plenty of aches and pains already. My mind says I am still young, my body says, "oh no."
I wonder where my 20s went? 30s? ha...
They always say "you're as young as you feel," some days I feel older and some days younger. Today I feel? I am not sure! ha..well i guess I am done for today. Maybe I can be more inspired tomorrow. Depends on how I feel. ha..

Just for Fun

Well today the weather has been beautiful! It is kind of chilly when you wake up then it warms up a little for the day, then the night cools off again. Great!! I can actually wear my hair down without it getting on my nerves. I can't stand it sticking to my neck! Its just the right length to get on my nerves!! So today I let down my hair! (ha) for reals.
Well i forgot to blog till someone (?) reminded me. oh and thanks :)
So the weather's fine, let down your hair everyone and enjoy life!!! Until tomorrow!!

Well this not only the beginning of the holiday season, it is also football season!! I love, love football!!! I do not get to watch much, but love to when i can. I do not know all the details of the game, but i love it when my team wins. lol...
I love to get in there with the fans yelling and dancing around (like idiots). lol....there are those that say we are silly! some say ignorant!! some say we have just plain lost it!! but oh well!
I remember Thanksgiving at Cong Congs......football, turkey,family, football......boy what a day!!! Great memories! I am thankful for turkey and for the pigskin!! lol........ (of course many other things also)

Smile

Today I would like to vent a little about selfishness. I do not understand people that are selfish, people that think of only themselves and the many things that they can aquire if they just hold onto everything a little tighter. You know i have found that if you hold something, say for instance play doh, in your hand and squeeze, before long it squeezes right through your fingers and falls to the ground. That's the way it is with other things as well. I feel like we were put on this earth not to only help ourselves, but others. If we see others in need and we do not do our best to help them we are a sad, selfish people. There is so much joy in helping others! Knowing that you have helped lift someone's load. I pray that I can be a help to others while on this earth, pick someone up who is down. Lend a hand to your fellow man! A little compassion and kindness goes a long way. Smile at someone today!

Balloon

well today was the day when the world thought that the little 6 year old boy went up in the balloon alone. we all waited and waited and prayed, and prayed some more. Thankfully the child was found safe at home in the attic. I'm sure his parents were frightened out of their minds!
i guess no parent is exempt from the fear for their children's safety. when i sit down to think i can remember numerous times that i have been afraid for my children. the times when they just wander away for a few seconds at the grocery store, or when they are playing in the corner of the yard where you can't see them. Then there those times when life hangs in the balance. When only a miracle can save them..... i know what that is like.....I've seen when life has been restored to one you love, and i can say, that truly it is a miracle. I thank God everyday that i have been sooooo very blessed. So as i sit here and the day is almost gone... I thank God once again that a little boy in Colorado is safe and that his parents have had a miracle.

I seem to feel somewhat better this morning. I got up and ate my bowl of raisin bran for breakfast,as you know it's the most important meal of the day. Or so they say. I don't know who "they" are, but someone.... anyway. It is now lunch, and I believe I will have a turkey sandwich. As you know I am trying to decrease my "fluff," so turkey is #1 on my list of "can eat" foods.
what a great time to increase my intake of turkey. The holiday season is upon us, so there's sure to be a plentiful amount of turkey.
Yesterday my day went well, i stayed within my own "guidelines" and i walked some also. Yay!!!
well this hasn't been much, but it is what was on my mind so i guess it will have to do. So if you hear a "gobble" sound...... look around......it could be me or the ghost of turkeys yet to come!

Fluffiness!

Well some people say "you ain't fat, you just fluffy!" well these days I seem to be REALLY fluffy. I have had some difficulty since my surgery---there has been a definite increase in fluff!! Hunger so intense! it is awful! Never have i felt so out of control!! Due to my increase in "fluff" i now am dealing with some health problems also. So I am trying to decrease the fluff. I am trying to put the reigns on!! OH! so I am going to use my blog for that (a little).
Yesterday, I seemed to do pretty good I don't feel like i overate. i am going to start writing it down so i can blog it. I'm sure it will be an interesting blog! ha.....
my health problems seem to be little better, so maybe i can start my exercising again. Especially walking.
WEll my rambling today is about over, maybe tomorrow i will be more inspired. so everyone read so i can get plenty of advice.......
