Who would have thought loosing 25 lbs would make such a difference? I’m not sure where I’m loosing, but things are rearranging. ALL my clothes are baggy. I threw out 3 black garbage bags of stuff that is way big. Sex is great. My back is much better. I’m walking around the lake with hubby and the dog, without pain. Life is improving.
Positives abound. Lots of food. Help with the kitties. Still no job but I’m really thinking I’m gonna have to figure out how to live without one. It’s not the gray hair or the weight. It’s just the economy. So the trays are gathered for starting this year’s seeds. I think I can sell herbs and baby plants at the farmer’s market. I need to get my Etsy store running too. Jewelry, socks, baby items, quilted items…not too focused yet, but it’s coming together.
Stayed in bed with hubby this am so skipped breakfast, but lunch was fresh pineapple, walnuts, cottage cheese, coffee and WATER. I’m cooking green beans, pork roast, orange sections and seasoned wild rice for dinner. Gotta attack the day with a plan.
Gonna light a candle, turn on some music, and DANCE! (while I wash the dishes!)
About Morning Knits
I believe in and practice positive living. I love YARN, cooking, music, bird watching, herbs, and gardening. I am passionate about YHWH the Elohim of all the earth. I believe it's our responsibility to tend that earth. I basically do my thing in a quiet, amused way. I believe in laughter, and the power of combined prayer. I am a true homebody.
I have 6 kids, all home-born and successfully breastfed. They are all grown. I'm the oldest of 9, daughter of a missionary mother who lives in Kenya, and I have a spoiled service dog and 2 rescued cats.
Right now, there is balance after yrs of unemployment. My disability was approved due to degenerative discs, fibromyalgia, and obesity. That last is hard to say. I believe we owe it to ourselves to protect our mental health. It's precious and the one thing we can control. I would rather not do my own housework and I talk too much. I bought a house in North Carolina which I ended up leaving for my husband to sell. I'm a two-time caregiver. My husband and I are separated due to stroke complications and personality difficulties.
I am in Texas now. The one place on earth I said I'd never go unless Yah moved me there and HERE I AM! G and I are sharing a small apartment and so far, things are going well.
