It’s that time it seems

Well it’s the time of year where we all start to get out our cool weather clothes.  Now is when we find out what we can still wear and what doesn’t fit anymore.  Hopefully there are several of my things that are too big now.  I have dropped some weight over the summer but as you all know all too well, we all tend to put back on a few pounds over the winter.  I hate that too, don’t you?

Do you feel it?

I got up this morning to get ready for work and it was cool in the house.  I had to turn my heat on for the first time.  Fall is definitely in the air and I’m not quite sure I’m ready for it.  Oh don’t get me wrong, I ready for the real hot days to be over but I’m just not sure I’m ready for Fall to hit.

That means that as fast as this summer went by, so will Fall and then Winter comes.  I’m not a Winter person at all.  I hate snow unless it’s on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day but I want it gone after that.  Silly huh?

He did stuff like this too

Remember me telling about the comedy club?  Well this guy was a lot like him.  In fact, for all I know, it might have been him but I don’t think so.  Listen to what he’s singing, he’s got it nailed!!! I personally would have to kill my husband if he did some of the things this guy sings about.

We went out last night

Jayce and I went to a comedy club last night.  I don’t remember the name of the comedian but I laughed so hard I thought I was going to wet my pants.  Some of the jokes he told were about being married and you name it, he made a joke of it.  I don’t know if any of you have ever been to a comedy club but if you haven’t, you really should try it sometime.  We just had a blast!!!

This is too amazing

I know that someone had to have been standing outside of our house while we were growing up and wrote this song.  It sounds just like my mother.  Oh I hope she doesn’t read this.  Love you bunches Mom!!!  Knowing her she would laugh and not be mad so don’t worry.  I won’t be grounded!

Went out to eat

Jayce and I went out to eat at an outdoor type place.  The food was great, the atmosphere was great, the service was fantastic and I was absolutely amazed that there were absolutely no flies buzzing around our food.  I hate flies for that very reason along with how nasty they are.  I noticed that there were these nice lights here and there.  What I didn’t realize was they were fly lights.

The only lights I had ever seen that took care of flies were the bug zapper things that would scare you to death when something flew in them.  These were actually beautiful and would look great even in your home.  I must admit I peeked to see who made them and then checked online only to find out the company has several fly control solutions.  The prices were pretty darn good too.  When you’re dealing with experts, you know you can’t go wrong.

I thought this was just too funny

A friend of mine sent me this and I just had to share it with you.  As soon as I read it, I thought “Now I have an excuse!!!”  I bet a lot of women who see this will think the same thing too.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.  Well poo!!!!!!!!!!  I changed my theme and lost the picture.  I’m sorry because it really was cute.  Maybe I’ll find it in my email later and add it back in.  How’s that sound?

I’ve been checking into diets online

Since Jayce and I have started seeing each other, I decided I might need to drop just a few pounds.  A woman tends to do that when either the summer is on it’s way or she has a new beau if you know what I mean.  The problem is finding a diet that I can handle.  I have a hard time with a lot of diets.  I was surfing the Internet for diet sites when I came across a Diet program that sounds like one that I just might be able to stick to.  I had never seen this one before so I checked more into it.

My weakness is sweets and snacks.  I love cookies and always have.  My mother was always making homemade cookies when we were kids so cookies mean comfort and love to me I guess.  Anyway, this program has a ‘diet personality’ page that you fill out so they can see what your weaknesses and strengths are with diets and to see if you have any syndromes like binge eating.  You can even calculate your BMI (body mass index) on the site too.  From everything I have read, this is a medically sound diet and the perfect cookie diet for me.  I get to eat cookies and still lose weight.  I couldn’t ask for anything better.

Annie’s finally seeking help!

My friend Annie suffered a very traumatic event three years ago, her house caught on fire but luckily her son wasn’t in the downstairs bedroom close to where the fire started.  She has finally admitted she needs help because of the resulting drug usage afterwords.  She’s finally checking into drug addiction counseling and I am so very proud of her. Just admitting she needs help is the first positive step to a full recovery.  She has been through so very much emotionally that she turned to drugs to stop the guilt and pain she felt as the result of the fire.

Even though she knows it was not her fault, she just couldn’t stop thinking that her baby boy (who is actually 24) would have been caught in the fire and might not have been able to have gotten out because of where the fire started.  At Realization Center LLC, they specialize in addiction and the underlying cause of it like a traumatic event.  She’ll learn new ways to forgive herself even though we may not see that she needs to do that.  I was just so very happy with her choice of treatment centers and I can’t wait to have my old friend back as good as she was before all of this!

Did you watch it last night????

Well did you?  Did you watch Dancing with the stars last night?  Oh my goodness, Shawn and Mark were incredible.  I can’t wait to see who wins tonight.  The bad thing is that means the show won’t be on again for quite awhile.  I hate that.  It’s about the only thing I watch on TV other than the news and an occasional movie.  Oh well, if you missed their dance, here it is. I thought it was absolutely perfect because it not only showed some of what she has learned through out the competition but it also showed off some of her gymnastics skills. Plus, she’s just so darn cute and sweet and it’s not an act either, you can just tell.
