A good night...

Well, I went to the new gym last night and it went very well.  I did 30min on the treadmill (interval training) and another 20 minutes on the elliptical machine.  I was dying! (ha)  It felt good though.  I sweat more than the average bear however, so I was very conscious of that fact as I didn't have a towel with me.  (They don't provide them either).  So, I made sure that my gym bag was packed with one for next time.   I did some weights, but I am unsure of the proper use of the machines, so I guess I'll just have to wait for the scheduled appointment with my personal trainer Levi.   The regional manager walked by me at one point and said very loudly "you go girl...looks like you are getting a good workout."  That made me feel good.  I figure if I'm spending my time and money, why just go through the motions of working out.  I'm going to work out hard so that I know that I did something.  
 
I went home and cooked a really good hotdish (although in my husband's eyes, there is no such thing as a "good hotdish"!) ~L~  Oh well, too bad for him!  I happened to like it.  It was something different than meat, potatoes and a vegetable.   I felt bad for hubster though.  We were finishing up with supper and his brother calls - a calving case was in process at the main farm.  I could just see his shoulders slump - he was soooo tired and wanting to go to bed.  So, he dressed back in to work clothes and took off for the main farm.  I really do not know what time he came home as I fell asleep around 10:30pm and he wasn't home yet when I woke up around 1:00 am.  Spring sucks for him, especially this year since everything seems to be going wrong. 
 
I didn't want to tell him this morning that they are predicting a 70% chance of snow and rain this weekend.   NO ONE wants to hear that "S" word at the end of April.  We really do not need a ton or rain either - especially with the flood fight going on.    Terry's home is still hanging in there with the increased releases from the dams.   (We're keeping our fingers crossed for him!).
 
Tonight is yoga night and it's my last night of teaching to my college soccer teams.   I'm going to miss their energy and enthusiasm!  They keep me on my toes, that's for sure.  
 
Have a great day everyone! 
 
Namaste'

Welcome to the Shit Show!

 I'm trying not to breaking one of my hard and fast rules - do not  talk politics or religion .  But for the love of all things holy, I cannot not   comment on the total shit show of last nights presidential debate.     America, we're screwed!     I want the chance to write in a candidate.  I think anyone would be a better option than the two we have right now.  UGGGHHHH!   I'm soooooo tired of the bickering . right vs. left.  I'm tired of the media, I'm tired of black lives matter (ALL LIVES MATTER, shit heads!), cop kiilings, riots and the disrespect and downright hatred  of the flag, of our Country!   I'm scared for everyone concerned.  I feel  the anger, the despair, the lack of consideration and respect - not only for the country -but for humanity .   I heard Savanna Guthrie , NBC Today Show, say that Social Media was the cesspool of society."   I couldn't have said it bet...

Merry Christmas!

For Christmas 2022, I had promised Blaine that I would take him to Million (aka Michael) and get his UJ (University of Jamestown) tattoo recolored.  Unfortunately the weather didn't cooperate and I couldn't fulfill my promise to him. Christmas 2023 I was  subtly  reminded that I owed him his gift from last year!  He forgets  to brush his teeth or clean his apartment but gosh darn he sure remembers if it's something he wants!  Michael was all about making it look like new again and hooked us up with an appointment yesterday.   What a day!!! We started out with coffee and egg McMuffins and plenty of conversation as we rolled down the interstate! I think his mouth was going faster than we were traveling! We covered so man y topics! We laughed a lot but cried a bit too as we remembered the farm and grandpa and grandma. After the tattoo, we went ro Scheels for a few more Christmas gifts.. a swim bag for his Special Olympics swimming gea...

A Repeat...

Once in a while I receive a request to "repeat" a blog post. This is one of the repeat posts that I hope you all enjoy the 2nd time around. It was originally posted in May of 2008. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*- Greetings Everyone, I received an email about 9 years ago from a far-away-friend that touched me to the core. It was entitled "Life's Lessons." I printed it out and tucked it away to read when I needed some inspiration. I ran across it awhile ago and, not surprisingly, it touched me as much now as it did then. So, to my friend Lee - wherever you may be, thank you for sending me something so beautiful and for thinking of me. Be well My friend. Life's Lessons Sometimes people come into your life and you know right away that they were meant to be there, they serve some sort of purpose, teach you a lesson or help figure out who you are or who you want to become. You never know who these people may be; your ...
