Biggest Loser at the Gym

Okay, we weighed in on Wednesday night for the next round of the Biggest Loser. I will admit that my weight was 408 pounds. I am pretty scared about starting this time because the first time I did it I had already lost about 30 pounds and didn\’t have a recovering achilles tendon and aContinue reading “Biggest Loser at the Gym”

Blessing of the Day

Lori and Megan encouraged and challenged me to write a blessing of the day down every night so that I can continue to see God working in my life. So, I am trying to figure out the best way to do this. I may keep a journal offline and then put a post at theContinue reading “Blessing of the Day”

A Long Time

Sorry it has been so long between posts. I have just been very discouraged with the \”weight loss journey\” since I have successfully put back on the 107 pounds I originally lost along with an additional 5 pounds. The other day we went to York Steak House and I was showing the train set toContinue reading “A Long Time”

Fact versus Fiction Pt 2

A week ago I was sitting around thinking of my relationship with mom. Mostly about the fact that I would get so frustrated with her because she wouldn\’t fight for herself. I was willing to come along side of her and help her fight but she had to be the one to want to makeContinue reading “Fact versus Fiction Pt 2”

Fiction and real life

Okay. I don\’t know if anyone is reading this any more and I don\’t blame you as it is usually a lot of time between posting but if you are reading this you know that I am a HUGE fiction reader. In fact I just arrived home from a 2 day \”Baxter Family Reunion\” thatContinue reading “Fiction and real life”

Today and Tomorrow

Starting today?

It has been a very hard last year and 1/2. I have noted a lot of things going on so I won\’t go into those again but I know I haven\’t really posted in awhile so I thought I would just drop a note. Monday I was given permission for full weight bearing on myContinue reading “Starting today?”

Blessings among Sadness

Well, I am sitting here on a twin bed in my living room 5 day\’s post op from having Achilles Tendon Surgery. There is basically no pain in my foot but it has not been easy. I did not wake up well from anestesia (spelling) and then have been home and have had to haveContinue reading “Blessings among Sadness”

Not sure how to title this post…

What to blog about? I guess I am going to blog about how I am struggling. Struggling with understanding why God continues to ask me to say goodbye to people that are special to me and not allowing me even some of the dreams that I have had in my heart since I was aContinue reading “Not sure how to title this post…”

Breaking Heart

Wow, 2009 started off very hard with the diagnosis of cancer for Penny. If you don\’t know exactly who Penny is she is part of a family that I have known since I was 15 years old and who, in the last 20 years, has adopted me. I spend most of my holidays with them,Continue reading “Breaking Heart”
