Nineteen days until the official first day of Fall! Wow, already so hard to believe. Just today I was looking out the kitchen window into the backyard and I saw a few leaves fall. I turned to William and told him, "I just saw a few leaves fall". He says "bite your tongue". Yeah, I don't think he is ready for Fall and to be quite honest, I'm not either. We are really enjoying our summer. During our Labor Day weekend, my honey as I like to refer to William spent some time doing some repairs to the house, not urgent repairs but things we wanted to fix, like our faucet in the bathroom needed replacing. We had recently had the bathroom redone, and by the way, it looks gorgeous. Back to the sink, yeah we used our old faucet and thought it was time for a new one, so a new went up. I like it, it matches the rest of the hardware in the Continue Reading
Weigh-in #7 ~ Success!!
This past weigh-in was a success, but at the same time, I feel it could be a false negative. I say this based on what happened last week if you recall. On Saturday morning, I weighed myself and I weighed 305 lbs, now according to my last weigh-in, I lost 5.7 lbs, which seems like a lot to me.

I’m almost scared to weigh in Saturday thinking it’ll be back up to 310, I’m having a hard time really passing into the 200s. But I am not giving up.

Back before I decided to get on a diet and change my lifestyle, I felt I was really hitting rock bottom. I am on the computer a Continue Reading
30 Days of Truth: Day 23 – Something You Wish You Had Done In Your Life
So here we are again, with another edition of the 30 Days of Truth. I am getting closer to the end. It's day 23, yay! In my last segment of 30 Days of Truth, I shared something I don't share very often, but I am glad I got feedback on it, I do appreciate that very much. It was a terrible thing to happen to me, because it not only affected my life but those around me as well, not to mention the innocent ones. But I have moved on from there, and learned my lesson, the hard way sad to say. I hope it changes just one persons mind about that subject. Let's move on Day 23: Something you wish you had done in your life. I probably wish I did a few things differently, but I think one I do wish I had done, is gone to my High School graduation. I graduated as a mid-term graduate, so while the kids were still in school, I was out of school and Continue Reading
