Couple Things...

Got through the day. Oh, and I feel some old age creep up on me. Seems when I rise in the morns, , body is STIFF. As I warm up, just like a '58 Chevy, I'm roarin' down the road. However--being more consistent on exercise may help. I'm stuck on the Lose Weight Train. Found out, a man once close to me, has shed about 60lbs. See, guys can lose weight by missing out on a hamburger, while we girl look at a hamburger and gain five pounds. Anyway, I don't even want to discuss it, except I did drink the 74 ounces of water. The trek to the bathroom proved that!

I received kind words from a woman I've never met, except for exchanging a few words on a Social Network, about my one and only self published book. The book itself is 11 years old. I'm amazed it still touches folks--well, really, that anybody is touched at all. Just nice. Humbling.

Good thing is, I'm off tomorrow. Boss wanted us to start using up our vacation. So for my 15 minute POKE test--which is what I call my Coumadin Check- I took off the WHOLE day. I do have to get get a tire, continue hunt for cheaper house/car insurance, plus other stuff before I head to get POKED. I just know I need a day off, while other people work. The sleepin' in, with a herd of cats, as a blanket will be nice.

The next man I date oughta be a vet. .

So tonight, on Dancing With the Stars, Michael did a very good job, Donny brought the house down and poor Mark--he had multi-partners due to Lacey's health. And on the girls' side: Mya I have yet to warm up to and Kelli whined just too many times for me, and maybe America. So if Michael isn't one of two booted off: it will be Mark and Kelli.

Stay tuned!

Gather 'round..

It's Monday. Downed my 74 ounces of water. Shoulda just stood outside with my mouth open. Rained ALL day. At least my yard looks lush.

Made it through with a try on a new attitude. That all o' this is just temporary. Gotta keep it all in focus--since I do need bi-focals, we'll see how long that lasts! :)

Us Iowa Hawkeye fans still hummin' about their last, literally seconds win, while Us Dallas Cowboys fans are hummin' about our Boyz' win. We also ask WHERE has Miles Austin been? In two games, he's stats surpass that of Roy Williams who has played in 17 games. Stay tuned to that.

However, with the rain, I still got the trash by the curb, a cat ready to curl and the remote ready for me to punch to Dancing With The Stars! I so get off on this show! Oh, and the Blue Bell Cookies n Ice Cream is gonna help too. So 'cuse me while I go root for Donny Osmond, Michael Irvin and Mark Dascascos!

Let's DANCE!

This Monday

Yea...yea...yea...Cowboys lost their inaugural regular season game in their Billion Dollar Bungalow last night. I am heartsick. My Marion Barber came up hurt towards the end of the game as he rumbled toward the end zone. Tony. UGH. Three interceptions. He's not superman, maybe to Jessica he was--but in the real world. At least he ponied up to it. But still. Dallas dominated and lost.

* sigh*

OK. Enough of that. Finally tonight: DANCING WITH THE STARS. You know I'm all over Donny Osmond, yet I'm kinda liking the Iron Chef guy. I wanna know if Mark can do something else besides point at food.

Stay Tuned.

...and Go Cowboys! I still love ya!

Check In

I sipped all my 74 ounces of water today. Forgot my lunch this morning, so I splurged on a grilled chicken sandwich on a whole wheat bun. Tasty.

As I sat at work today, I thought of the story I should finish. I am quite pleased by it. Then I may delve--finally--delve in to the middle age love story, that's been on my mind since I was in my 20's. I realized how being middle aged NOW gives me a better insight to the story. My story has always stared Whoopi Goldberg and Danny Glover. No "The Color Purple" here--yet a love story with a happy ending--plus nobody dies. :)

In the meantime, it's back to pet the cat while I inspect Mark Dacascos of Iron Chef and soon of Dancing With the Stars. Ya know, I've always been a Donny Osmond fan, yet there's something about Mark. I look forward to seeing him do something more than point at food.

Did you drink your water today?
