Thursday's Little Things

A great workout
The taste and sound of a crisp apple
Hearing the words,"I love you" from my seven year old
Reconecting with an old friend
Soft fuzzy socks
The smell of citrus
Lotion
These are just of few of the little things that are on my mind and I love and appreciate so much!

Flash!

Tonight myself, Taesha, Jordan, and Josh went to the Flash basketball game with my neighbor and her kids.  What a fun night it was.  It kindof makes me laugh though because it was never really about the game, Taesha was just focused in on the hot looking guys playing ball and taking fun pics, Jordan was all about playing with his big bro's Iphone and Josh was all about the treats....well and me, I just love people watching, it is so intriging and entertaining.  We all had a great time and it was fun to be with good nieghbors, we love spending time with them.  Great way to spend a Saturday night, goodnight!

the little things....

Today I tried to add a link to "the little things" my neice started and I couldn't get it to work so until I can get it figured out I will just try to do this on my own each Thursday.  So the little things that warm my heart...
a visit from my sister, listening to my great nephew tell me about movie characters that I dont know, cuddles from my dog Fritz, warm carpet on my feet from the sun rays through the window, learning that my Mom and Dad are coming home!

My Hair

Well I am here today to ask for your comments and advice on such a topic as my hair.  So I really want to cut my hair but my husband hates short hair and I have been growing it out for him for about 6 years but I hate it sooooo bad and I really need a change.  It takes so much effort, time, and money to keep up such long hair and its so much funner and easier to have funky hair when its shorter,  I love funky hair!  I dont want to make my husband mad or have him gag at the site of me so what do I do????  Please help me, I really want to put myself first here but its so hard.....

Crazy me!

Ok so I have been procrastinating this post for a while because I was not sure what I wanted to say. I am trying to express my feelings and thoughts in a way that is helpful to myself but does not make me vulnerable. I've decided that if I am honest then that is not possible so here it goes, honesty it is. Another new year and contemplating what my goals will be for 2011 is a bit overwhelming, I am so tired of the weight loss goal that just haunts me over and over. I loose weight then I gain it back then I loose it then I gain it and it just goes on and on and makes me crazy! I just want to be healthy again and like myself and my image again because these two things conflict my whole life and everything about it! I am tired of feeling like I am out of control in my life and that someone else is driving me through my journey of life instead of me. I guess I really need to make my new goals about me and finding how to put my needs first in life so I can be better for others in my life, this is hard for me because when I do this I feel guilty and when I don't then I resent others. I sound so messed up I know and I probably am but writing my thoughts down I hope is the first step in my journey to reclaim my life and find myself again. I am going to try and record my thoughts throughout my journey and maybe it will help me face my fears and commit to my feelings better so I can work on them and fix me! Well I did it, here is to my journey in 2011, I hope it works and I reach my destination this year. Good luck to me!
