two more days

Wednesday, May 29th
How does time go so slowly and quickly at the same time?!?
Twenty-nine days into this birthday season with only two to go...bittersweet!
Today's gifts...
Grass (one day no grass, the next...presto!! We have a yard!) Love it already...but I haven't had to do anything to it yet. :)
Crickets and frogs (they are happily chirping and croaking themselves into my heart.)
Fishing with my sister and niece (very thankful the bass were hungry today!)
Playing Uno with the family...so much fun!
Last, but not least, I was able to check off something on my to-do list of things before I leave. Success is due to my wonderful sister taking the kids to eat ice cream and a few other things that an aunt does for her nephews that her sister won't...like go to the candy store in town...while I shop for window coverings. It amazes me how some things one dreads end up being not so bad afterall.

    Hi Janet...thanks for the comment on my blog. I haven't read blogs in awhile, so I read several of your posts this morning. I guess you had a birthday season....so I don't know when your actual birthday was...but HAPPY BIRTHDAY Janet Rose. I hope you will have a good year ahead.

    I see also that you have just moved! Where have you moved. You live in Georgia right? Moving is bittersweet indeed. Like you, I sat and remembered good times and bad when we were leaving our last home 6 years ago. We had so many memories after 20 years in one home! But as you said, when the family pictures come down and everything is packed up it just seems like an empty house!

    Anyway I wish you well in your new surroundings Janet girl!

    Love, Linda

#TransformationTuesday

"But God has surely listened and has heard my prayer."  Psalm 66:19 As one who has struggled with weight all of my life, seeing the ups and downs in jean sizes became my reality.  I would lose some pounds only to face a stressor in life and see them return and bring friends along for the ride.  I spent years believing lies, yet secretly hoping for a better reality.  Lies that I am not capable of overcoming my sweet tooth and that I am just not the workout type, topped the list.  I have never really lacked self esteem or self confidence; I know who I am.  However, I know from personal experience, others define me by what they first see.  Having been a plus-size lady for years, I was treated differently, intentionally or not, when I dropped pounds. My health journey to where I am today began back in 2010. It is amazing that things do not happen accidentally, even if they seem to in the beginning. Actually, as the pieces of my story have come together, this story begins w

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here.  I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta.  The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart.  I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball.  Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very disappointing), organ music to lead you to yell &q
