27 hour Birthday!

On my birthday, we had a whirlwind of a day!  Finished our last day of school in the morning and by 2:30 pm we were in the airport all checked in for our flight to Phoenix to begin our 8 days of vacation.  Because it's a 3 hour time change from ATL to PHX, my birthday indeed lasted 27 hours...and I loved every minute of it! 
Having missed our normal dinner hour while in flight, we went out to celebrate, once we landed.  Needing to find something convenient to where we were, we settled on Ruby Tuesdays.  They brought me a plate of cupcakes at the end of our meal...two carrot cake and two Red Velvet.  The carrot cake cupcake I had was delicious! 
Poor Alex was suffering from exhaustion and a stopped up ear from the landing.  Tim, exhausted as well, fell asleep on the way to our hotel, The Wigwam, and didn't even remember getting on the golf cart for a ride to our room from the parking lot even though he was alert enough to walk over to the golf cart himself. 
Needless to say, we all slept well that night!

"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

3 in 30 Check In: Minor Technicalities

Having a great month...getting things accomplished and finding myself excited that the newness of 2011 hasn't worn off yet is so awesome. Closets are all cleaned out but mine...getting to the last one of six feels great and I cannot wait to rummage through it. As for making it to the Y three times...thanks to our ice and a minor back injury , that hasn't happened, but I have a chance tomorrow and Saturday to make it there at least twice this week.  So looking forward to it, even if I walk a little funny getting there. And, there are plans in the making of a new endeavor for me to use a newly acquired skill to bless others.  Baby steps of hope in the right direction. And, I've had a chance to think ahead to next month's goals...can't wait!  Thank you, God, for a wonderful week!
