Monday, Monday

There is a part of me that hates to see Monday morning roll around. Back to the grinding stone one might say. However, there is actually a tiny speck of my inner self that actually looks forward to Monday morning. It is kind of like being granted a fresh start. I seem to need a lot of fresh starts.

I woke up this morning to a rain-washed, fresh-smelling new day. The sun is shining and the grass is green again after almost dying from the intense heat and dryness of the past several weeks. What a perfect day to start my makeover!! The diet is in full force and I am committed to walking more than just three times a week.

Someone on another blog asked a question about novenas. This gave me the idea to start a novena today to aid me in my quest for better health and fitness and I am asking my blog-world friends to keep me in your prayers and thoughts this week as I begin my journey. Will you join me?

Peace and Blessings!!!

Long Time No Blog

I have debated whether or not to even keep my blog since I have not been very productive in the blogging area, but I am going to give it another try. I am sure I won't be blogging everyday, but I will try to be a little more timely with my posts.

The first thing on my list today is that I am starting a serious diet. I plan to chronicle my dieting adventures. I have put on weight over the past several months and I am not sure why. I have not changed much in my eating, so I am thinking it could be due to the fact that I am getting older. I don't know. Anyway, I am going to have my yearly checkup in a few weeks and will discuss it with my doctor after he finishes yelling at me for gaining weight. I am fairly active. I walk three miles at least three times a week and chase my little daycare charges around my house and yard on a regular basis. I am thinking I need to do some exercising other than just walking. I am not sure what I will try - maybe yoga. I am not sure at this point.

On another note - The last time I blogged, I wrote about my then unborn granddaughter. Well she arrived on July 5, 2009 and is the most precious little thing. I thought I would share a pic with you.

These precious little girls (my grandbabies) just found out that they are going to have a little sister. She is due to arrive in the middle of July. Their mom had an ultrasound today and everything looks great!!

Just For Laughs

This is my granddaughter Campbell. She was laughing at her sister and mom making a gingerbread house. Don't you wish you could get that excited over something so simple?

Going Green - Dryer Balls

These are 100% all natural wool dryer balls.

Will reduce static clean and make your laundry softer.

I have been making the above dryer balls for gifts, but have had so many compliments on them I have decided to try to sell them. They really do work well and are so much better for our environment than conventional dryer sheets.

$3.50 each or three for $10.00.
Shipping and handling is $2.50.
