Exhaling


 A blaaa of a day....
 

 
Well well well...I've finally hit a blaaa day..These kind of days are when I so wish not to be a woman....Chuckles...but that I am and that I must deal..I feel a lil better than earlier...I went soak in my bubbles there for about an hour and it sorta helped...but the emotions linger a lil...I know it will go away in a  few..but..jeepers while they are here is tearful...and can also be mean..especially when some love to push the buttons...But..I've made it so as those ppl have no access to those buttons.. 
 
I hear the thunder out..it's just begun to rain again...I'm waiting for the lights to go off again...every day there is thunderstorms and lots of rain..and every day the lights go out for a moment..it seems to be this way all over the place...just thankful no damage here as of now..
 
During the week we made a trip to see my eldest son..it was so good to see him..and he even cooked a small meal for us...I know he missed us too..and enjoyed us being there...I know I may be a pain in the butt when I give him a call a few times a week in the mornings..but..he is my son and no matter the age I have to hear him once in a while....Later in the week a girl whom I went to school with lost her eldest son in a car accident...my heart hurt for her so much...to loose her child no matter the age.....when my nephew died at the same age my son is now...it just ripped my heart out...I know we have no control over anything really...but..I'm a Mom and my kids are my heart...
 
I have to stop talkin about this..it is making me cry..and I surely don't need any more added to my already crazy mood...Let me talk of my diet..which is going fairly well...no big noticeable thing ..but..I've managed to loose almost 10 lbs and have kept it off...still a ways to go..but..I've set a goal for myself...my middle son is making his Confirmation this coming school year and I want to be at least 2 sizes smaller...so wish me luck..
 
 
Short for me...but..thats how it goes sometimes....And hey the lights stayed on...smile..
Have a great and safe weekend and always remember to give thanks to the good Lord for all things ...for even thru blaaa moments he is there...
Love to all

 Feeling ...Showing....
 

 
Time..man surely feels like so much time has past..but it's only been about 3 weeks since the kids are out of school...we' ve been busy as bees lately..which is good..just can't believe that I'm actually keeping up with it all...lol..
 
Joining the gym has been great...I actually got in the pool one day with the kids..I'm not much into the water these past years..but decided to try it out..one of the days they were having a water aerobics class and I got my butt in there and joined in...it was really fun..even though I was like totally slow in the cross pool activity..lol..I'm serious..there were ladies like 20 yrs my age flying across..and here was my old slow butt way behind lol lol...but I didn't give up...now with the rest..I managed to keep up with...Smile..and the exercise equipment inside I'm surely taking use of...my 15 yr old and I both..and let me tell ya..my muscles hurt big time...but hey..no pain no gain huh...like I said before...I actually lost about 5 lbs..woohoo...now its to keep it off..ummm..lol..
 
Oh and father's day was really good...no big shindig...we all went to church together and then out to eat some yummy pizza...which I must say I was so proud..I ate my salad first then only 2 slices yippeee...lol lol...then together shopping...Then comes today....which turns out to be an even better day....I mean I never laughed so much in my life...again we were all together and just so full of joking around...we made each other laugh so hard that our bellies hurt...and not to mention..I have like the weakest bladder you ever seen..so I had to check that once or twice lol lol..my 15 yr old has been saying quite often that this is the best summer..so much better than last year...it makes my heart happy to hear him happy..and all my guys..And you know it's not that we are doing anything really spectacular..just spending more time together...heck I've even joined in on the video games..which is surely a sight to see..just a fussing at that TV...at them lil characters lollol..
 
Only one thing...my eldest ....I miss him...First summer he doesn't come home...job is on campus..better job than the summer one here..but still my heart misses him...But..I am so proud of him!!!...I think this weekend we will make a trip to see him....
 
OOO yeah...I have to tell about church yesterday...Our Agape singers sang the song "How Great Is Our God"...and that song just touches my soul...I was so proud to be able to do the sign language to it...My hubby told me that he could see how much I was moved by it...it showed in me as I signed it...but at one point I looked out and I saw a couple sitting in the front..and the female had her hands up in the air...she was singing and praying with all her heart...it made my heart fill up even more...I just knew they must be visiting with their family...that they were not Catholics...for I've never seen anyone else do that in our church...Even after the song was finish she kept her hands up in praise...and I noticed a man behind my hubby just starring...I felt sorry for that man...for he was missing something that she seemed to have...Smile....
 
On that note...I'll bid you all a great week...and remember How Great our God truly is!!!!!!
 
Now some beautiful and wise songs....

 And then there is Good....
 

 
Back back back again!!!..lol..
So before I start with some of the good things happening..I've got to say a few more not so good...awww....well..I failed miserably at my diet...Sad..lost a few lbs..and bang..back again..I just hate it..that's about the only thing I truly hate about myself..is this weight...it's my own fault..but still..not liking it...So funny..when I was younger..it was my height..being a female and 5'9 was not such a great thing..but....it doesn't bother me anymore..I guess I used to allow others to make me feel ashamed of it..but no longer..That's their problem..
 
Anyways...the good thing is..I'm not throwing in the towel yet...we've joined a health club..wooohooo!!!..."Treadmills...exercise classes...equipment to help all parts of the body...swimming pool...and woohoo..a whirlpool..yippee..My kids are totally excited about it...and shsss..I think I'm more excited than they are lol lol..
 
Oh did I mention...that summer has began..lol..yeap..school has ended..I don't know who's more excited about it..them or me lol lol..Last summer...we didn't do to much..it was like too hot..yea..I'm spoiled lol..but even though it's already starting to get that heat here again..we are planning things to do..to keep busy and try to get some weight off and keep it away ..I've enrolled my lil one in a day camp..we'll see how that works..and then there's the religion camp which even my middle son goes..he helps out with the lil ones..who knows..maybe this time I'll help..ummm..or maybe I'll just have a lil extra time to spend at the gym....lol..either way...we are going to get our butts out and about...
 
Last weekend..was so peaceful...we headed off to this little candy cottage..where there's so much yummies..it was a sweet lil place..we sat and ate ourselves some ice cream cones...(shss..you didn't see the word ice cream lollol)..it wasn't so much the ice cream but the time together..even hubby commented on how nice it was to do this together..and my middle son talked about it during the week..how much he enjoyed it...We just took some time to be a family..even just going browse at the store...The eldest son came home with his gal for a few days also and we spent time together..we had a BBQ...and talks..it was wonderful...And yes..it's the same girl that I surely didn't want around in the beginning lol..but..this old mommy has learned to keep her self..and besides..she is also trying..she seems to really want to be with my son..even when he broke up with her..she never gave up...so I'll just keep my eye on things and my faith in God...and in my son..
 
It amazes me how my changing... has made a change in my family...don't get me wrong...there are days we fall.....but..those days are fewer than before..and I also know it will be an ongoing thing for the rest of our lives...but..with God's help I will not give up..I've also realized that it can't just be a saying of change..or a change in attitude alone..it has to be a true change inside..in the heart ..in the soul...and that is what happening in me ...I know anger still resides inside...but..Love is there also..and smothering it up...Smile....
 
Well..there you go..a lil update on my life...guess..I'll go and play a lil more on the puter..and finish up with my cloths washing..and get the guys to cut that grass..I tried cutting it the other day..and wow..I've come to the conclusion that a 43 year old woman just can't do what she did when she was in her 20's lol lol..so I'll leave it to the guys...lol..
 
PS...Today is the start of hurricane season for us...so if you would please..include us in the prayers of protection..please don't think me selfish...for asking..for I know there are many who are suffering great disaster at this moment..and I do pray for them also...but I know prayer is strong when done by many...Thank you...and I wish you all a great day..and God Bless all...
