2008...so far

Well 2008 has zoomed by and we are almost through with February! AGH!

Bella is doing very well in her ballet/tap class and loves going to her "dance class". She is also doing the Tumble bus at school and loves that too. She just loves to stay active and is full of energy. Juliana is loving her hip hop class that she is taking in preparation for the Rokettes drill team in the fall of 08. That'll be a crazy busy time for our family.

Walt is doing much within the job arena and looking forward to the new changes in his life in that area. Still a nut and keeps me on my toes with his cryptic phycho babble and endless phone calls to me at work asking me: "what are you doing?" DUR!

I am trudging away at the workouts and weight thing and have finally realized that I need to get serious about the EATING thing and cutting back and making changes or the weight is NEVER coming off. I'm so miserable it's nuts, but evidently that's not enough to motivate me at all. What is my problem? Well I'm giving myself this coming weekend and then Monday I'm drastically changing the way I eat or else. it's becoming a matter of life and death now. Gotta get the cholesterol down and keep the heart from gonig kaput. okay I'm telling myself it's a matter of life or death. LOL!

Well More to come on this journey...

Why so Hungry!?!

Okay so I re-started Weight Watchers last week and I go for my 2nd weigh in tomorrow and today I'm back at work without access to the goodies I can just reach for and eat at home. I'm so hungry. AGH! LOL!

I'm really going to work hard at this and give it a 150% effort, but man it's hard right now. I know I must go through this to get the weight off and eventually I'll even out and feel not so hungry

So anyhow I thought I'd type my feelings so I'd have record of what I'm feeling at this moment. LOL!

Another New Year!

Well here we go again, in one fail QUICK swoop, the holidays and the year are over and we are in January 2008 and start another year over. AGH! Man the older I get the faster they seem to just zoom by.

It's like the older generation says, life goes by to quickly, take the time now to stop and smell the roses and spend time with your children and just enjoy life today is your last day on the earth. It's a very daunting feeling of how quickly all of what you work for can be taken away from you in an instant without you even knowing or having any control over the situations.

With all that is going on in the world today, if you don't take the time to enjoy life, children, smell the roses and what not, when will you? NEVER?

All I have to say is we are now in 2008 and I remember being a kid thinking that the 2000 years would never get here and we might not see them...WOW! How things change!

Happy New Year everyone, stop and smell the roses and enjoy this year and may it be prosperous for each and every one of you!

A Love Poem For My Husband!

I wrote this for my husband, Walt, for his birthday, 10/7/06, he loved it. :-)

Love

I have an aching in my soul
It makes me long to be in your arms
I have an aching in my soul
It wraps me like a blanket when it’s cold.

I have a feeling in my heart
It tells me it’s forever
I have a feeling in my heart
It tells me it’s nothing to sever.

I have a wanting in my head
It says don’t be afraid
I have a wanting in my head
It says let your feelings be said.

I have a longing in my bones
It sends chills down my spine
I have a longing in my bones
It makes me tingle inside.

I have feelings all throughout my body
They make me feel all sorts of things
I have feelings from my head to my toes
They make me feel all gooey inside.

These feelings can only lead to one meaning
These feelings can only mean one thing
These feelings what can they mean?
These feelings are my love for you.

My love for you goes deep down into my soul
It will never end, it will never die
My love for you goes on till the end of time
It will forever live; it will forever make me smile.

I have an aching in my soul
I have a feeling in my heart
I have a wanting in my head
I have a longing in my bones.

I can’t describe to you the depth of my love for you
It makes me feel things all throughout my being
I wrote this poem to help tell you how I feel about you
I wrote this poem to tell you what my love for you means.

Hopefully this poem is successful
Hopefully this poem says what it is suppose to
Hopefully you understand how much I love you
Hopefully you feel it too!
