sights and tastes of Maine

prettiest Maine sign in the state was on the way out

Anglers had more desserts than entrees. The blueberry pie was good. ;)

Saco KOA had a tie-dye t-shirt activity for campers.

Saco KOA also had the best and largest blueberry pancakes ever.

This made me smile.

We spend the morning in Searsport relaxing and getting our plan together for the trip South, toward home. We then made our way over to the local flea market and found some treasures. There, we found out a good lunch spot. Anglers...where the menu holds more sweet than savory items.

After a late lunch and a blueberry pie to go, we headed to Saco, our final stay in Maine.

Saco held much fun and a little rain as we settled in for the night. Staying there was worth it for the breakfast the next morning...blueberry pancakes!

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. I have come to realize that those that take precious time to invest in me deserve better from me. I need to adhere to the direction given on any flight I've ever been on that goes something like this: make sure your own oxygen mask is properly secured before helping others.

My choosing clean eating, drinking enough water, and exercising on a daily basis is how I put on my mask first. Am I perfect at meetin...

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 di...

Go. Be. Do.
