- Please notice that my "Theme" is educational. Well this is the garden I have planted in my front yard. Given that we have this new "Theme" feature - I felt compelled to pick a theme and carry through with it. I was going to give a seminar on gardening. However, since my idea of gardening is to go to Target, buy a bunch of really pretty plants (...

I was browsing through past entries of mine in search of inspiration, to remind myself of that girl who was motivated and wasn't afraid ... and I found this one I wrote back in early November of last year.
I just wanted to repost it and share it with you guys. That day I learned something. I can only hope I can slowly get back into that mindset where I am open to learning ne...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

it doesn’t matter how long you’ve been sitting in the darkness; the second you turn on the light, the darkness disappears
I read this yesterday and the tears just started rolling down my face. I've really secluded myself these past two months. I put on a face for those around me, but really, there's been a war on the inside. It's a long process, relearning how to be kind to...1 Recommendation6 Comments -
For the next week I am committing to writing my food journal here .. I need to do so to accurately track my calories and be accountable for what I am eating. When I first started losing weight I did this daily ... it was the commitment to myself and provided me with much information. I found out I definitely had an emotional component to my overeating and I learned my trigge...1 Recommendation5 Comments

Mom told me that in Fla. 50,000 people showed up to vote yesterday. So, I asked my caseworker if he could take me to vote and I did it today, on absentee ballot,only took 7 or 8 minutes. Go Barack Obama! I am so psyched that my friend Hele may be voting for Obama even though she is Republican. Woo hoo! The guy that read me my ballot took a pic of me with my ballot. I'm so vain. I know I think...1 Recommendation5 Comments

Well, that was a wasted weekend as I slept away BOTH days. Every once in awhile my need for sleep becomes so overwhelming that it renders me almost paralzyed for a few days as I totally crash out. Physically, my body becomes extremely weak, my muscles like jelly. I lose all consciousness as I fall into a sleep that is so heavy & deep that I'm almost certain I'm clinically dead for som...1 Recommendation9 Comments

I had a wonderful experience this week. I give/teach a class every 2 weeks on "Life after Birth".
I have been teaching this on going class for almost a year now and do find it so gratifying and mutually enriching as the teacher , a good teacher, learns most from their students ! Most weeks I know everyone enjoys the class and I do see the results as my students attitudes and ...2 Recommendations7 Comments -
MAXED OUT is a documentary on America's credit card debt and the financial debt of our country. It is an excellent film.I highly recommend it. On the other hand "
Weekend Wedding" was a stupid movie I tolerated. Also, "The Other Sister" was funny and heart-warming about a mentally challenged girl striving for independence and the clashes she has with her mother. Juliet Lewi...1 Recommendation3 Comments
