I've spent 4 long years getting my 'food act' together... and last fall when I 'lost it' so to speak, when my thyroid took a turn for the bad again... and I gained 40 lbs in what seemed like a heart beat...

  • Just remember...

    Thursday, June 28, 2012 | An Inspiring story

    When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, When 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers.

    When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
    He then asked the students if the jar was full.

  • POOP HUMOR

    Sunday, May 12, 2013 | A Funny story

    All the organs of the body were having a meeting, trying to decide who was in charge.
    The brain said: "i should be in charge, because i run all the body's systems, so without me nothing would happen."
    "I should be in charge," said the heart, "because i pump the blood and circulate oxygen all over the body, so without me you'd all waste away."
    "I should be in charge," said the stomach, "because...

  • Liquid Sunshine

    Thursday, April 4, 2013 | A Positive story

    It's April 4th 2013 and it's been a day fun of Liquid Sunshine (that would be rain to many others).  It's been so dry here, it is for me a welcoming thing. I still am waiting for a call for an interview and Lord knows I'm being patient, but in the meantime I keep myself busy with things (anything) to keep my mind occupied, as well all know and idle mind is a troubling mind and I'm not allowi...
