Greetings on a very stormy afternoon. Kinda like my life for the past 9 years!! We've had a barrel of rain, the plants are loving it...I haven't been out yet because I attended worship yesterday at 5 p.m. and was privileged to hear Dr. Ed Young in our NE campus for Second Baptist. WOW AND WOW AGAIN.
He is a remarkable pastor, strong inspiration, so steeped in the ministry and one to watch closely. He never looked at a note, his gestures and body language are magnified and it was a treat to hear him on Easter weekend! And, so, that started my celebration. Prior to that, Penney's and Wallyworld (of course)...don't you live there part time also? Thought so!
We've just completed income tax (I hate it). Probably going out again..the rain's over and I'm itchin' and twitchin' to run for a while! My body's been 'on hold' for the past couple of days. I'm .3 of a pound from breaking another 10 pound barrier! I was ready for it yesterday, but discovered, I can't have it my way.
It's interesting when Michael says, "what do ya want for dinner?" My reply goes something like this, "it's all kinda the same and my eating is not for pleasure any longer...it DOES NOT MATTER TO ME!!!" And, the interesting part, that's all true. Foods food now...I'm eating to live rather than living TO EAT!
Hallelujah and giddyup!!
Have a tremendous week and get some rest! I get a fill on Wednesday...no, not the car...my PORT in me!! After it's over, let's see what a difference it makes! K?
On March 12, 2009, I was banded with the lap band. I lost a total of 46 lbs. and after one year, gained it back. Frustrated, fat, and aggravated, time marched on. As a 'senior' now, my realization of the true meaning of life has come clear. I did not retire wealthy, I retired. I have time, no gold...it's time to reflect from the inner self out into the world.
About Me

- Humble, Texas, United States
- Retired educator, retired freelance photographer, retired life. I loved the classroom, laughter of the students, small successes that made them glow and the feeling of 'family' among faculty. However, job done and on to new things. Life was on 'cruise control' until March, 2004...and then, there was a halting screech, lung and heart issues and physicians galore. But, I beat the odds and HERE I AM...STILL HUFFIN' AND PUFFIN'!!! Let's see where this leads.....
