sorry......

I know it's been too long.......I have started a weight loss (life change) journey.  I have lost 20 pounds since July.  I have been to the gym at least 4 times a week for 3 hours.  It is kicking my butt, but I am loving the results.  I have also been watching what I eat.  It's not an easy journey, but I know in the end it will be worth it!!  I will keep updated on my journey............does anyone have a weight loss story they would like to share??

OK

So, I skipped, yesterday.....my husband says I need to write more.....I did get irritated, this morning, with people who can't use a turn signal.....and people who have to drive 5 miles UNDER the speed limit.  And what is with the completely stop before turning??  And why do slow people choose to drive in the left (fast) lane......

Annoyed!!

No One is visiting or "liking" my blog on facebook......:-(

My Absence

Sorry folks.  I have not been able to post regularly like I would like to.  Unfortunately though, much like all of you I'm sure, I have to pay the bills and thus I have been working like a mad man lately.  Such is the life of the not-so-well-off.  I promise to return soon and add more of my rantings and incoherent thoughts for those of you who have been keeping up with me.  If you want me to be able to post more often and not worry about the day job, then please spread me around like yesterdays peanut butter to all of your friends and don't forget to click on the adds!!!

Fly Like a ......... pt.2

While you are airborne, your little bubble of air seems to be expanded to the sky around you, almost as if you are godlike, soaring over your domain.  Things on the ground look so peaceful, removed from all the hustle and bustle of everyday life.  It is then that you sigh a breath of relief knowing for that moment, even if just ever so briefly, you are not burdened by the things that seem to mount upon your shoulders, giving you a sense of freedom.  It's as if, for that moment, nothing really matters.  Of course that all ends when an upset child begins to wail their unhappy song bringing you back from your peaceful daydream and back to the realities of humanity and all of it's flaws.  As your flight progresses, you know the time is rapidly approaching that this little getaway from reality will be ending.  The pilot states over the intercom that you are on final approach and you will be landing shortly to return to the land of shoving and pushing.  During your decent, you notice out your window that things on the ground are getting larger ever so slightly but fast enough that if you look away for a brief moment those objects are much larger and can now be distinguished as cars and houses.  It is then that you being to long for that sliver of time that is forever lost when you were staring down at the beauty of the world around from your throne high in the sky.  As your plane prepares to land, you now must harness yourself in and make all the necessary safety preparations to keep you warm and snug in your seat.  At the moment before touchdown, you can see the runway appear below you and rush past just before the plane touches down giving you a jolt as if it were letting you know that life must go on as usual and it is now time to wake from your daytime slumber.  When finally on the ground, the roar of the reverse thrusters pushes you forward as the pilot tries to get the reluctant plane, that also seems to not want to return to what may be considered normalcy, to slow down and stop, bringing you to the gate to which you must depart, ending a journey of escape and tranquility.
