The Year...

I hope its the year we win the super bowl...We got here, and now have to keep this ball rolling...{ into the end zone] Its great to cheer once again, and be happy when the game is over and we have the winning score. We have this great young quarterback, and some real heavy duty players on the team. Announcers are lauding our playing skills, and expecting us to win games. So nice to hear once again. We are good fans and stick with our guys no matter what...Its finally paying off. GO PACK!!!!!!
Its gonna snow again sometime today. While I think of spring, and flowers, and a vege garden, Old man winter rears his ugly head, and puts me in my place. It doesn't defeat me though, no way. I know for sure that spring will come. The days will get longer, and the sun will be warm on my face. Tiny buds will peak through, and and small animals will come out of hiding. The house work will become secondary to being outside in the open air...As you can tell spring is one of my favorite seasons. Gives me the knowledge that everything is renewed. Life goes on and beautiful things will be seen again. Bad news be damned! I'm ready for the good feelings that come with spring and summer...Late ta

Just for Today

Just for today..I will be happy I,m alive. I will look at the good things in life, and not the bad. Just for today I will hug my husband, and sing to the breeze. Just for today, I will call a friend, and just listen to what she says. I will take a walk, and eat my vegetables. Just for today I will appreciate those that love me and tell them so. I will not judge them in anyway. Just for today I will not swear or get angry over little slights. I will laugh at the mirror and not be mad at what I see. Just for today.....I will look forward to doing it again tomorrow....Late ta

Is it necessary?

I'm watching the news, again hearing about the tragedy. The murders of those people and the wounding of the senator. Its obvious to me that this young man is crazy. It sounds like he has been this way for some time. Too bad no one felt it important to say something...Again we look at it, after the fact. I blame no one except this young man for what he decided to do though. He made that decision and went through with it. I WILL say that politics as usual, needs to change. It has gotten so nasty, and so cruel, that we no longer hear the real facts. We no longer hear what the candidate has to offer to help run the country. All we hear is nasty innuendos and threats. Yes, threats. How can we expect our young people to process this information? To feel good about our country? To want to be part of it all? Many politicians act like small children in their fighting and name calling. I'm so tired of it, and think changes need to come. SOON. I don't want to hear anymore about liberals or conservatives. Whos good and whos bad. Some where.... there is a center that we can all come to, for the good of America. teach our young, how good things can get done...

Going forward

I'm going to try to do better this year. I have a tendency to start things and get all excited, but lose interest real fast. This year I really want to do better. Exercise to make my body tighter, and healthier. Eat right, and less, so I lose a few unwanted pounds. I'm taking one day at a time, just like I did with my other vices...Just because I'm an older, doesn't mean I have to BE OLD!.
That great gal Betty White, is having her 89 th birthday this year. She is also still going strong on that new tv show. She gives me hope, that its possible to live to a ripe old age, [ did I say ripe?] if you take care of yourself...Ripe might not be the best analogy. After ripe comes rotten....lol I used to think giving up things I liked, was a bad thing...Ive found that some things I liked, were BAD FOR me..Theres rewards for giving up the bad things...and usually, this is replaced with good...
So this is my plan, and I hope this time I can actually keep it going for ever....New year, new me and new hopes....Late ta
