Terrible Tuesday's

Well it is Tuesday the 11th day of Sept. thus the 9-11-01 anniversary. A sad day for our nation.. I often ponder why why did this have to happen. And then I get to thinking of the next 12-12-12 day.. what will that day bring. I have many tell me to quit thinking about it. But I can't.. I think of what this nation means to me and to others of my family and what God means to me. It is a real eye opening think to stop and think of the possibilities. I love God and my family and then so on. But God come first and then my family and then career job or what ever. But most of All God should come first in everyone's life. I hope I have instilled that in my Children and I hope my family (parents and brother) understand and I hope they follow this and put God first in there lives. All so on a day like this I pray that you will not be offended at my post. If it does I am sorry and Pray that God will be Lord of your life. So take today to stop and reflect on your life.. because others ...

Hello:

Well it is July all ready and so much has been going on, We just got back from Hawaii and had a great time. I also have been trying so hard to lose weight. I have lost 21 lbs so far. It has been a battle. But I am trying so hard. I know I didn't put it on over night and I am not going to lose it over night. So I am the slow and steady as the turtle goes (Grin) . We had a wonderful time in Hawaii. That was my anniversary present from hubby, it was our 30th on June 12th.. We took the kids with us they had a blast.. Figured they wouldn't get to go any other way. It was relaxing and peaceful. The kids first time in the airplane and they loved it.. I will try to down load pictures.. But like anybody cares.. I guess my subbies I have here don't give a flippin fig about my blog here.. Anyway we went to Kauai Hawaii the island of foliage. It was beautiful.. and the weather was very good yes it did rain everyday but it was showers u could be in and not get horrible wet. The Tra...
Well it is another day in the life of Me.... I have some really good news I lost another 4 pounds this last week. I am getting so super excited. I love the B 12 & B6 shots... they are so working... My daughter lost another 2 pounds.. I am super excited for her.. Well the Easter season is upon us. I just Praise the Lord for all that he has done In my life and my Families lives.. I am having Easter at my house I think unless my daughter wants to have it at her house.. Either way it will help my mom out.. her arm is healing very well ... I took out the stitches before we went to my uncles funeral. She wanted them out so she didn't have to have a big ole bandage on her elbow.. So I got all 10 of them out.. good thing the Doctor used blue thread it was easy to see them that way. Well I am going to change subjects sorry to be so random but I have had a ruff last month with clients also the 2 months before.. Hubby is not to happy and wants me to just give up the shop and not have it...

Wow am I excited.. My daughter and I each have lost a total of 10 lbs. A piece this month. The B12 & B6 shots are helping to get my energy level up so I am doing more activity. I go in 60 days for a thyroid test to see if the medicine is working. I hope it is and that it isn't a permanent thing. I do have one sad thing to say I lost another uncle to cancer this last week. His wishes were to be cremented and to have a Memorial service. Which is this Saturday. My husband and I and my parents will be traveling 2 hours to go to the services. In January my dad lost his brother to cancer and this month my mother lost her brother. There were 3 boys in my dads family and there were 7 in my mothers family and now there are 3 left in my dad's.. him and his older brother and there is just 3 left in my mother's .. my mother and her 2 younger sisters. It is hard to see parents lose there loved ones. My grandparents are all gone and now the aunts and uncles are going. I guess t...

TGIF March 23, 2012

TGIF. I am so glad it is Friday. It has been a week. It has been a struggle. I have been on a roller coaster. Just praying God gives me Favor in his site. I am going thur some things. I just pray things get better or else I won't like the out come of this. The craft me is in a funk and I can;t seem to get past this. And the trouble is I have stuff to craft with just need the mojo to kick in so I can scrap. I need to quite having a pity party because nobody will come and I will be the only on that cares so I need to either go on or stop and let this consume me. And I don't want that to happen. Anyway Monday I go back to the Dr. and see what she says about my progress in the weight I have lost. The no regular soda thing is getting better. Had the with drawls and headache that comes with that. I am going to be researching for recipes for low fat high protein and low carbs. Have had a heck of a time talking to the nutritiousness. Seems as we can't get together and that is d...

Not sure what I am going to do this weekend.. With rain and all .. probably do laundry and just chill. Or tackle some closet that need cleaning out. Who knows..

Happy Monday March 5, 2012

Happy Monday Y'all !! It is a gorgeous day here in SI ... The sun is shining and the temps. are not to bad .. I am so proud of my self today.. I didn't go back to sleep after taking Kyle to school .. I didn't feel the urge to crawl back in bed.. Yay Me! Those B12/B6 shot I got is still working .. The energy is still here.. I get a shot once a week ... They may burn but so worth it if it keeps my energy up and I can accomplish daily task. I have had breakfast and dishes are done. Been catching up on my You tube vids.. And I am making out a list of things that need done today and a grocery list. Oi vey I hate that job going to the store for groceries. Seems I buy to much.. But don't we all . I have to cut out my coupons before I go and get my adds to know were to go for my best deals. That in it's self is a chore. The Sunday paper had 3 coupons booklets this week so it is a good week. Sometimes they don't have squat. I am also going to go thur and purge some ...

The first day of the rest of my life..

Hello all It is the first day of the rest of my life. I have decided to take control of my life. Decided to take it back. I have been a slug long enough.. I feel so much energetic today .. Due to a B12 and a B 6 shot I got yesterday.. I have been so lethargic and have had no energy and feel so bad but seen the Dr. and advised a B12 & B6 shot for a boost of energy. And it is working I think.. well I have more than I had yesterday .. I have gotten my kitchen clean and the counter tops clean and the stove clean and the dishes done. I hope with the new energy I will start feeling like getting up and doing things. And losing weight. I need to if I am to do all the fun things this summer with the kids. So many vacations and mini trips and I want to enjoy myself and not feel to tired and hurt to walk and participate and not sit and watch. .. And who knows I might get some scrapping done to like I want to do. Well break is over and I am off to clean some more. Melody
Hello Well it is the last week or so of February. It feels if my world is turned up side down.. I lost a Uncle 3 weeks ago and now I am losing another one.. Both to the dreadful Cancer.. I hate cancer it has taken do many of my family members and friends.. It doesn't get any better. If that isn't enough I have had a cough for over 4 months now.. Afraid to go to the Dr. I know I should.. But still afraid.. Then if that isn't bad enough my son is giving me fits.. I just don't know how to handle it all. Hubby is to harsh on him and it upsets me when they holler back and forth.. I guess i am the peacemaker or peace keeper.. I have always tried to keep peace in the family and not try to cause waves.. Even if it isn't my fault and it is a family member causing the trouble I just roll over and give in.. Just to keep peace in the family and to have a happy life.. Which at this point I am not happy. Oh well .. That is me the wishy washey person that I am.. anyway I am off h...

Jan.20 2012

Well it is has been a while and I have broken my resolution to write on my blog everyday or almost everyday. Bummer.. I have been in a slump.. I have a lot of things I need to do and I haven't done them.. I feel so bad.. What is with me.. Need to improve ... as my dad use to say"Shape up or Ship out"..I guess I have to many iron's in the fire as they say.. Or maybe it is ADHD for adults. Or may be laziness.. who knows..In such a funk and in a rut and not sure how to get out.. I want to craft.. but can't seem to leave the computer along long enough to actually do something.. Does anyone have that problem.. I can't seem to follow thru on anything.. And I am not liking it either.. Well I am off for now to a least attempt to do something... Maybe laundry or clean... who know's.... Well until later. Melody
