Ok, so last December I called myself out and committed to lose 10 pounds. I haven't updated at all but I did want to let you know that I didn't lose 10...I lost 20!!! :) Yay!!!

So sorry you were crying and having a hard time Saucy. If it makes you feel any better, at least you aren't in my situation. I'm getting a divorce. My husband has a girlfriend in another town who apparently doesn't know he's married and now he's admitting that he's been seeing other people throughout our marriage and back when we were dating. Nice, huh?

Life sucks. I have been crying for days. My friends have gotten earfuls. They are probably sick of me. I even cried while talking to a client about my life.But I think I am done. But now it seems my husband is the one in the dumps now. It is one of us at time THANK GOD for our kids sake.Praying things get better very soon!

Ok, so there is a sad story in the news about a cemetery in Chicago digging up graves and reselling the plots. But what's equally disturbing about this story is the fact that it's an African American cemetery. WHAT??? I'm so sick of the double standards in this country! What if there was a "white" cemetery? OMG...all hell would break loose! There would be lawsuits and you better believe Jesse

One of the most difficult jobs as a parent is protecting our kids. And protecting them from child predators is ranked #1 in my book.As the mother of a female elementary school child I am often confronted with the "spending the night" issue. It is NO! A big fat NO! Too young. I talk to her about others touching her and who should and shouldn't and when it is appropriate (like at the doctor for an

I remember where I was when the masacre at Columbine took place 10 years ago today. What an awful tragedy that changed so many lives forever. My thoughts are with the students and teachers who were killed and injured that day. My thoughts are with the students and teachers who luckily stayed safe that day but will forever be affected by the emotional scars. My thoughts are with the parents

Ok...I am beyond irritated and I'm going to use this blog to vent before I drive my husband crazy! :-)My father-in-law and his new wife are going to be in for a rude awakening when it's time for them to receive gifts from us again!Let me start by saying that for some reason, a few years ago, my in-laws (when they were still married) stopped sending my husband, their only child, a gift for his

OMG...it's a miracle! I just read an article on Yahoo titled "States consider drug tests for welfare recipients". Well it's about darn time!!!If I have to take a drug test to get a job and contribute to welfare, then by God, the recipients of that welfare need to take drug tests too! I'm sorry, but this deserves a big fat...DUH!!!

There are so many things that are disturbing to me right now but this is downright unbelievable.There are suicides and murder-suicides happening at an increased rate in our country simply because people cannot afford to exist. And at the same time our government is giving financial institutions billions upon billions of dollars in a bailout, the big-wigs of those corporations are getting paid

Recently I wrote "Taking One's Life" . Today I found out how he killed himself. It was raw. Shocking. I won't share. They think there may have been some drug use involved that lead to him taking his life. In addition to a history of depression. It has been on my mind all day.I have been working today and keep seeing his name all over the projects I am working on. Notes he wrote in the system. His

So I am listening to the Bob Greene/Oprah webcast and she keeps talking about January 20th and drinking. I am not easily catching on to what she is refering to. She said it many times but never said the event. She assumed everyone listening knew what she was talking about. I eventually figured it out after some thought and especially after she said she expected all her viewers to raise a glass

So I listened to the webcast that Oprah and Bob Greene held the other night. I took notes and thought i would share them with you.1. Rate yourself in the following areas to see where you life is not going so hot and that may be what is causing your weight gain. Give each area a + or -. Once you rate each area, focus on making each area a +.HealthCareerFamilyFinanceFitnessFriendships/

Well, I joined Facebook and hooked up with some old high school girls. I won't even say women because they don't deserve such a title.They have not changed one iota! They are still high school girls stuck in 10th grade.They are acting catty, cutting up each other, saying, "Hey Bitches" as a greeting and so on. The part that gets me is I somehow got included in an email conversation on FB about

I absolutely LOVE fireworks...the real ones. The personal version that you can buy at some roadside tent or some warehouse with an obnoxious "Fireworks" sign bigger than my house...yeah, don't like those so much. You see, I am from the north and personal fireworks were illegal where I lived and in my opinion, for very good reason. Now I live in the south and it's a whole different story. I don't

Wow.I'm not even going to go into all the details about this. All you have to do is Google Wiley Willis and you can read all about it. The bottom line is he arrested a woman, Angela Garbarino, for drunk driving, she was uncooperative during booking, and he beat the hell out of her. You can see him roughing her up on the police video, he turns off the camera and when he turns it back on she's

The other day my boss called me at home. He had been trying to track me down for a few days. We played phone tag. I kept thinking why doesn't he just email me or leave a message about what he wants. I mean we rarely talk on the phone unless it is important info about a project I am working on.When he finally reached me he said, "You may have heard or read about this already, but J passed away

Ok, I really don't understand what my problem is. I'm overweight and out of shape and don't do anything about it. If I try to do anything at all, it lasts for about 5 days. The thing that gets me is that my kids are the most important things in this world to me and the thought of something happening to me and not being here for them brings me to tears in an instant. So why on earth don't I take

My sister-in-law (SIL) worked for a small town for a few years. Every year they collected toys for Toys For Tots and distributed them within the community. And guess what? Every year my neice got a new bike and many other toys from it. In fact, I am pretty sure they got their Wii from it as well.My MIL mentioned they wanted her to buy Wii for my neice that Christmas and how she thought they were

Due to a series of events in my life recently, I have finally given in to my doctor who for 2 years has been trying to get me on anti-anxiety pills to make life easier for me. They are the wonder drug and I am sorry I waited so long!Anyways, that is not what this post is about. It is about the funny thing my husband said tonight.He was giving me a back rub as we watched TV and I told him about

My daughter had a school friend over to our house on Friday for the first time. Now, we have known this child for a little while before they became classmates from various activities around town. Once classmates they became fast friends. We visited their house once and this past friday was our turn. So she rode the bus home with my daughter. All was good for the first hour. Then, we sat down for

It is no secret if you know me that my hubby lost his job 2 years ago (as sole breadwinner) and we are now starting our own business and going in debt every day because of it. We are well aware that we are upside down and hope that one day our hardwork will pay off and we will flip right side up and skyrocket!In the meantime, I am doing everything I can to reduce monthly expenses.

OMG...Craigslist drives me bonkers!!! Or should I say, the people on Craigslist drive me bonkers!I have a toy listed on there right now for $20. This toy is literally like new, the only difference is that you don't have to fight to get it out of some ridiculous packaging. Someone emailed me saying, "I would be interested in purchasing it for no more than $15" and she wanted me to drive about 45
