I’m a lot late to this as I’ve been thinking about a word for the year & mercy of all things is popping up

I know that I expect way too much out of a broken body & it needs mercy, permission to rest & recharge so that I can continue.

I realized after Monday at the Y that I feel better physically, mentally & spiritually AFTER exercising.

I nee…[Read more]

Very long! Greenville has set a date of March 15th for Randy to start work at their location (he’s working for them already here in Waco). We want to get the house on the market by the beginning of March. That means that all cleaning out and painting has to be finished by mid February so we can get the new flooring done by the end of February. Crazy times!

We had a completely sick household last month, too – feel your pain. Hope you both feel better soon!

I have been so absent in my life lately. I know that sounds weird, but it’s my truth. I got wrapped up in a stressful job that basically sucked the life out of me and consumed me. In October, I made the difficult decision to walk away from a pretty decent paycheck in order to get myself back. I’ve taken the last couple of months off but plan to…[Read more]

<p style=”padding-left: 30px;”>We had that same exact situation with my father in law and the woman he married after my mother in law died. I have to confess that I did tell her off one day. She was “telling stories” about my mother in law that were total lies. Unfortunately for her, the story she decided to tell me that day was one that I had…[Read more]

First and foremost, wishing @nikki-massie a speedy recovery after her surgery yesterday!!! You are in my thoughts!!

To put it bluntly, I have been a total bitch lately (please excuse my language). Telling people what’s on my mind and am at the point where I am sick of always doing for others and neglecting me and I am actually telling them…[Read more]

Robin, no apologies since many of us have dropped the ball (so to speak) and haven’t been active in posting. Wishing you all the best during this transition period and stop yourself when you feel overwhelmed and take several deep breaths very slowly in and out to help release some of your tension.

Hubby is sending in his acceptance letter today for the job. Packing and purging feels like it will never end.

I’m liking Good Measures. Not much weight loss due to the mild case of diverticulitis. The foods that need to eat for recovery are ones that make me gain. BUT! Working with Good Measures has kept me from gaining! I haven’t lost but I…[Read more]

My word is going to be  confident . I need to trust in what I’m doing is right.  Confidents that my choices are important.

I’m here & trying.  Life has been so challenging since 11/3 ( hubby had RNY with issues & a week in rehab) between hubby, wee one relapsing with cutting & the eldest with her issues, THEN realizing my mother in law is at her mortal end but just won’t let go (I’m too bloody much like her I fear).  Personality issues in a hobby of mine left me feel…[Read more]

Hey @nikki-massie!!! I miss all of you too!! Today we arrived in NOLA. Was hoping the weather would be better than Upstate New York, but for the whole time we are here, it’s going to be in the 40’s and 30’s and for the most part rainy. Oh well, we’ll have a great time anyway!! Unfortunately, I won’t be able to do as much food planning since we’ll…[Read more]
