First off I would like to thank everyone in the military and their families for giving such a great sacrifice to protect our country. I have two cousins in the military and being that I live in a military town (we have five bases here), lots of friends and acquaintences who have served. So THANK [...]
Back down to 186 this morning. Oh please, oh please let this be the last of the birthday fiasco! My neighbors threw me a surprise birthday party last night! Complete with chocolate cake and ice cream. I had just a tiny bit of the cake and some strawberry ice cream. I LOVE strawberry ice cream. [...]
Last night, hubby and I grilled some chicken and corn on the cob for dinner. It was the best meal I’ve had in a LONG time! We used the Jack Daniels Spicy BBQ sauce on the chicken. As hubby said “I think this was better than the Chinese we had yesterday!” and I agreed. That’ll [...]
Running outside has broken out my freckles in various places…mostly on my face, though. I am as white as all white get out. Dh thinks I need some tanning before we go to Mexico, but I don’t really ever tan…just burn. What’s wrong with my blindingly white legs, anyway? I have always been sooo anti-tanning [...]
I went to bed early last night (9:30) armed with Nyquil and my super secret nasal spray that saved me during the flu last November. I don’t like to use it often, but when I can’t breathe due to a stuffy nose, this stuff always gets the job done. I slept great last night; I [...]
I can tell it’s TOM at the end of this week because I basically want to eat everything in sight. I keep thinking about these deep fried spicy wings on a Down Home with the Neely’s episode that I saw a few weeks ago. Ugh…what I would give for hot wings. Every time I think [...]

I made my world famous apple pie this weekend and had an ever-so-tiny slice of it for breakfast this morning. I know, not the greatest breakfast, but I wanted that pie! Just now, an e-mail was sent out about free Krispy Kreme donuts in the kitchen.
Man, oh man. I want that donut. But no.. I [...]
Yesterday was awesome! Ok, so, the weather was fantastic so DH and I went to Garden of the Gods and decided to try and run the 5k route to see how much we could really do. This is the same 5k route that the Komen 5k will be doing in September. We finished in 36:30 [...]
So I feel like the scale gods have given me a second chance! I finally got the courage to step on the scale this morning - 194.0! I didn’t gain anything! This is truly a miracle. I was prepared to see a few lbs gained, but hey, I’ll take this. To top it off, today [...]
So with the beach in 14 weeks (97 days according to hubby), I went to the gym to run. This was a big deal for me, as I forgot my gym pants at home so I had to go home first and change. Usually setting foot inside my house is death for me in terms [...]
