HAPPY THANKSGIVING, USA!

Posted by: delitaagain In: Updates

Today is a great opportunity to get back to posting. Happy Thanksgiving!

Yes, I’m in Colorado, Colorado Springs in fact, and enjoying it. I enjoy the West as my family came out of the West so it is always a treat to be back here. I also love my son’s family, with whom I’m staying for now. My son is serving in Iraq, and I’m getting to enjoy my DDIL and 2 grands while we all miss him together. Every part of every day is a pleasure.

I’ve walked twice in the last 3 days and the plan is to increase that. I weighed in this morning, with fear and trembling, because it was a different scale and I didn’t want to show a gain from a scale difference. Well, I showed a slight loss so that’s okay, right? Must be a true loss and not a scale difference! LOL

Today I am focused on… giving thanks! My friends and I are praying for LIGHT for our nation. Please join us if this speaks to you.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I hope you find much to be thankful for no matter where or with whom you are spending today! And, our friends in other nations, we are thankful for you, too. I hope you will join us in giving God thanks for all the goodness in our world.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too! Isn’t Colorado Springs beautiful! I was there visiting friends back in 1975, and loved it. Did you get adjusted to the altitude with your walking? Take it slow!! Enjoy the holidays. Talk to you soon - Sandi

Hi, Sandi! So good to see you! Someone taught me to drink lots of water in the 48 hours before arriving (especially while flying) and that seems to keep most of the altitude symptoms at bay. I’m sure you are right about taking it slow, though, and really don’t plan to start my real workouts until next week. It is so beautiful! Last night we had a lovely slow inch of snow. Delita
