L.E.N.S. photo challenge: Home

The photo theme this week is "Home"...the possibilities are endless.  I pretty much feel that home is wherever my feet are at the moment.  However, being it is almost Thanksgiving and I'm going home to Indiana next week, I've chosen a photo of my home away from home.  Grandma and Grandpa's farm will always be in my heart as one of my favorite places!

                           Sunset over the farm on Thanksgiving evening 2006.


Join in on the photo challenge at "Home Is Where You Start From".  It's so much fun!

    This is a wonderful picture. What a special way to preserve a memory. It gives me an idea of how to take a picture of my home place when I go there the next time.

it's not about me

I reminded myself of this recently. It's not about me at all, this wellness journey I am on to a healhier version of myself. Not at all. Never has been, really. It is about the people who invest in me. My husband. My boys. My family. My friends. They all share themselves with me. When I am not at my best, I'm not giving them a good return for their investment. They get the tired looks, the lack of energy excuses, and the wimpy "maybe next time" cop outs.

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 di...
