Ten on Tuesday

  1. For some reason Blogger doesn't like my computer and won't let me upload photos the last couple of weeks. So while I've taken pictures of life, I can't share them with you. This makes me very sad.
  2. I am now leading two Weight Watcher's meetings each week and looking forward to adding more in the near future. I'm enjoying them so much. Funny how much these meetings remind me of my classes - it's all about inspiring people to be their best... I already love 'my' members so much and am so thrilled to see them succeed.
  3. I think it's amazing how God provided a job for me before I even completely lost my job at the store. The overlap was a bit much - but now that I'm down to only working WW and the Memory Box blog, I'm so glad I never had to go without some income. The timing was PERFECT.
  4. Savannah and I got home last night from five days in Canada, visiting Corey and her daughter in Canmore, Alberta. The weather was glorious and the company was superb. It was so fun to see our daughters get along so well. We shared lots of laughs over old high school yearbooks, ("How could you ever date a guy with a moustache, Mom?) ate lots of great food, watched tons of movies and took lots of walks. It was a wonderful weekend. If I can ever get pictures to work again, I'll share some!
  5. Asia and the boys had a fun guy's weekend while we were gone. Asia hosted a poker night with his buddies and won first place for the first time ever. They really don't miss us much when we're gone.
  6. I put a pork roast in the crock pot this morning to have pulled pork sandwiches for dinner - but when I got home from work around noon, noticed that it wasn't hot. The knob to set the crock pot was stuck between the low and high setting, which apparently doesn't turn it on at all. I had to toss the whole thing. Ugh. I hate wasting.
  7. I still need to get out into the yard and get my flower beds cleaned out... hopefully next week I can make that happen! I still want to buy some bedding plants - got to get them before they go away and all that's left at the nursery is the old scraggly half dead plants!
  8. I'm reading this right now. I'll let you know if it lives up to all it's promises.
  9. Yes. I'm still walking. Tonight was the 154th day in a row I've walked.
  10. Happy Tuesday, friends. Happy you're here. I think anyone who still checks my blog is a loyal and wonderful friend. Smooches!

Getting to know you Wednesday

So it's been awhile. But I thought hearing from ya'll might cheer up my little snow encrusted Spokane self. So today, if I get at least 12 comments, I'll randomly pick one and send that lucky commenter any CD from Your Music . Whatever you want. So today, in light of mid-winter doldrums, I want you to answer the following three questions. To escape mid-winter doldrums, I like to: My favorite winter memory is: I know Spring is coming when: Okay, friends. Now it's your turn. Go to it.

The floodgates have opened.

So, I was doing pretty well managing my emotions. I kept telling people that I had processed a lot of my grieving over Tejan's departure back in January - when we were so close to saying goodbye... and so that must be why I wasn't feeling overly emotional about it this time around. I hadn't shed any tears. Hadn't choked up in that strange, overwhelming way where I feel like my whole head is filling up with fluid and my throat is so constricted I'm just sure I'm going to die. Nope. I was doing just fine. And then I went out to dinner with some girlfriends. And while I was a little socially inept because I'm a kind of overwhelmed and not really wanting to talk too much lately (perhaps in subconscious fear that I might touch on a nerve that would cause my aforementioned steely resolve to crumble) I thought I got through the evening fairly well. I didn't tear up - or need tissue for any fluids defiantly leaking from my facial orifices... until I made the a...
