Ok, so I've been away forever. Life is busy and diet and exercise is like no where in sight. Sometimes the never ending story can get the best of you. Then you want to try again. So I'm back with desire and no motivation. but we'll see what happens from here on out. I think I'll do a monthly journal. Like a fresh new start every month.
So.........here's the beginning of June (a little late, but still June).
It was so very hot here today, went shopping most of the day........had to find an outfit for my niece's wedding on Sunday. Went for a 1 mile walk yesterday and did 10 miles on the exercise bike. so................it's a start. Hope to get more miles on the bike in tomorrow.
Off to bed.
Later,
Rivergal

hello sweets,
so great to see you back posting..i have been so bloody busy lately i havent been able to send my search party out when my buddies go awol.
cant wait to catch up with you and see what you have been doing while you have been MIA.
hugs bell :)

Hey there!

Do you think a groundhog would make a good pet? :)

Glad to see you back! Have a great day.

Hey Bell, I know you have been one busy lady lately I saw when I was sorta catching up on your journal. But I know you still think of me even when I'm MIA and you're busy. It's good to hear from you.
Corrina, thanks for dropping by, it's good to be back or take the time to get on here and post anyway. Not sure about the groundhog. It would probably be sweet when a baby....and may be a good pet, but they do get rather big. whereas my prairie dogs remain little. So, I'm afraid I'm no help there. You could try one and see how it goes. You never know.
As for my day...........It's been HOT!!! I want my Spring weather back!!
Nothing good here to report on eating and exercise.......I've been lazy with DH.....just laying under the A/C and watching dvds.

Quick report of my day.........nothing exciting happening here. I spent the day putting wallpaper border on boards getting ready for the festival this coming Sat. Put up some cabbage from the garden in the freezer. Never done that with cabbage before so I hope it turns out good. Daddy picked green beans today so I'll be cooking them tomorrow for supper. I love having fresh stuff from the garden. But we really need the rain. We've had lighting and thunder the last couple of evenings but no rain coming down.
Off to bed............goodnight.

Today was a bummer. Thought it might rain us out of the festival but then it didn't and you would know.........festival was a bust. Left earlier and really wished it had rained.....we need the rain so bad here. So......now just praying it comes tonight and tomorrow. The clouds are really gathering but you know how that goes........clouds, lightening, thunder, but no rain........Hoping this evening is different. Heading to a birthday party for my niece........she's the big 30. Ohhhhhh wish that were me having my 30th. I'd take that age again. Knowing what I know now would be great too.
Later,

Really hope that the rain comes, River!!!!
what would you change if you could go back to being 30?????
Hope you are having a wonderful weekend my friend,
Sorry that the festival was a bust!
hugs bell :)

What would I change if I could go back to 30?. Well, let me see...........I'd move out and have my own house here on the land instead of living in the same house with Mom and Dad. I'd still want to be right here but not in the same house. Then I'd keep the weight off that I'd lost back then. I'd take better care of how I spend my money. And the rest I'd leave the same. I have had a good life........I am blessed in so many ways. So.........the most important things I wouldn't change. But I'd like to feel and look like I did at 30. (I think 30 was a good year, OH NO........I'd rather have 32. that's when I looked and felt good, all the weight gone!).
Oh, well, we can't go back but we can make the rest of our lives even better!!!!!

Today is just a lazy day......do need to get the washing done......after I go to the store to buy the stuff to do it with. lol Gonna make fat free, sugar free homemade cherry icecream tonight.........can't wait!
Later.............
