Trampoline Love Making

Wednesday, October 31, 2007 23:09:13

First, I have had two fairly good days of exercise and eating. Only exception would be the 4 oreo cookies that I ate last night. hubby is to blame because he bought a pack of them yesterday and last night everytime he started to eat one he would ask "are you sure you don't want one" and of course after he ask me that ONCE...I felt the need to have one or 4 with him. I realize that eating 4 oreos is not THAT BAD, however, it is that bad if you have had all the foods, drinks and snacks you need for the day.

Exercise included 30 minutes of walking daily along with some hand weights, situps, reverse situps, yoga stretching and calisthetics. OK on that front.

Second, to the title......have you ever made love on a trampoline at night with the night air being your only cover and the stars your night light??? If you haven't......let me suggest you add that to your list of things to do before you die!! Everyone knows I am a lover of nature and that I do not like my body being inhibited by clothes, however, I do realize that under most circumstances I do have to wear clothes. THERE is nothing like the feel of the night air being your clothes and the stars shining upon your and your lovers body and the bounce of the trampoline under you. NOW, I don't suggest you do this if you live in a condo or apartment complex. But I was fortunate enough to live in the country and wide open spaces or the city with a large back yard and trees for privacy. Make this a priority in you and your lovers future. I guarantee you will find true pleasure and happiness.

Today is our second day off and it is COLD here in the mountains of North Ga. The next few days promise more of the same. But, what can I say...it is almost winter. Enjoy the moment we are in....I am getting ready to go outside and rake up some leaves and burn them and just enjoy what sunshine we have at the moment.

Blessings to everyone for much happiness in your lives. If I could share my happiness and love for this life with you would be a pleasure for me. Chargail

Doe in Heat

Wednesday, October 31, 2007 23:06:08

I have been totally entertained this cold sunday morning by the deer. First, two babies were out rummaging thru the leaves looking for any left over corn kernels from yesterday. The babies are this year babies and they have little bumps on their heads where the horns are starting to push through.

Then, a doe in heat has been running zig zag across the woods "which is my back and front yard" giving 2 bucks a run for their money. It is hilarious as you can see the focus in these guys eyes....heads down, noses flared....trying to get some of that action. What is really funny is watching one of them try to cut across the yard in anticipation of the direction the doe will take and then she will turn in the opposite direction, those guys have some powerful stopping gears. KUDOS to her, she is making those boys work for the prize.

The Cloris Leachman story....I had a radio talk show when I lived in Southern Indiana back in the mid 70's and that was the reason for the interview with Cloris. She really is delightful and is very personable. Like so many others she has that outer "celebrity shell" that once you break through you will find a real human.

I have had a couple of days of excellent eating...no overages on the almonds or sweets. I did have a couple of lite beers both Friday and Saturday night, NO BAD!

1/2 cup oatmeal for breakfast w/bacon bits and 1/2 english muffin w/rf peanut butter & honey

I have ate tons of veggies like collards, cabbage, rutabagas. Lots of oranges.

The only meat has been "canned breast" made into a salad with celery, red grapes, green onions and FF mayo. OH, and my meat substitute, which has been black beans w/garlic & onions and I even put in some wheat pasta "spaghetti" and I might add.....IT IS DELICIOUS!!

Got some walking in yesterday along with 30 minutes of hand weight workouts. Then about 10 minutes of yoga style stretching.

Today is another opportunity. Blessings to each of you for warmth (cold here in NW Georgia), health, happiness and peace in your lives. Chargail

Cloris Leachman & Oranges

Wednesday, October 31, 2007 23:04:08

I had mexican for lunch yesterday and it did not taste as good as I thought it would....the restaurant is a great one, however, I just mean I had been craving mexican so I indulged and it really wasn't worth the extra fat & calories. Lesson learned!

I bought fresh collards, cabbage, rutabagas, sweet potatos, bananas and "my best loved" oranges. I have been straying too far away from the veggies and so I bought fresh ones and cooked some of them last night. I plan to hit the veggie plate hard for a couple of days.

I love oranges, especially when you cut a hole is the top and squeeze and suck the juice out.....OH MY GOODNESS...such sucking pleasure.

Every time I see or think of oranges I always think of Cloris Leachman. Quite a few years ago I did an interview with her when she was in Indiana filming a movie. She is quite the woman that you saw on "Dancing with the Stars". She told me how the hotel she was staying at had to agree to provide her with freshly squeezed orange juice each morning....not from just one type of orange....no!! it had to come from 4 different types! Had they not been able to do that she would have chosen to stay else where. Now, in case you don't know that is having CLOUT! She is a very nice person and we had a wonderful time chatting and exchanging "boob" stories. When I see her today and see how vibrant she is.....I wonder....is it the oranges.

Off to work and getting physical activity in. Blessings to each of you for happiness and peace. Chargail

Good times

Wednesday, October 31, 2007 23:02:12

We had a wonderful visit with our friends yesterday. We went to a buffet for lunch and I consider myself a SUCCESS because I only had a small plate of mostly veggies with the exception of a small serving of roast beef. I promise you that is not my usual way of dealing with a buffet so I am proud of my success.

They rode us all over the town and area they live in which was a real treat because they live just a few miles from the Tennessee line in northwest Georgia and I must say the leaves on the trees in those mountains were breath-taking. They live on a mountain and the view was spectacular. The beauty God has given us to view with our eyes is indescribable.

I did not get in as much exercise as I would have liked because it was rather chilly and at times misting rain yesterday. However, I did really watch my food intake and that is a major improvement.

Today will be another chance to be successful and I have already started with healthy eating this morning.

If you have not read it already you really should check out jenny-in-london's blog.....that girl rocks with inspiration.

Blessings for a successful day everyone. Chargail

Inspired

Wednesday, October 31, 2007 23:00:08

Giving credit where credit is due....ugly betty's blog has been an inspiration to me this morning. She commented on one of my post and since I didn't recognize the name I wanted to check her blog out. INSPIRATION is what I came away with. I read all 3 pages of her blog and I came away with this thought.....this girl deals with a lot in her life, however, she keeps on keeping on....true inspiration.

flasandy....tons of credit due her for inspiration. This girl has lived with major health issues for quite a while and now has to undergo a lung biopsy just when things were looking up for her.....does she wallow in the "woe is me" syndrome?? no.....true inspiration.....she always inspires me

What do I really have to complain about...nothing...except the usual "woe is me" snydrome that I have taken up lately.

Not today....no, not today...no "woe is me" day today.

Walked for about 30 minutes yesterday and had a great food day until right before bedtime and the almond monster held me down and forced way too many almonds down my throat. Going to be on the lookout for him tonight and I am taking a page from a child's book.....going to clamp my lips shut and not let him get any past those lips.

OH YES, today is day 1 of our 4 days off!!!!!!!. Blessings to everyone for peace, happiness, success and good health. Chargail

Blessed Sunday

Thursday, November 1, 2007 00:09:08

I titled this blessed Sunday, however, everyday is blessed or did you already know that?

I did manage an aerobic walk yesterday for about 20 minutes. Eating was much better EXCEPT for the late night almond attack . I love those things and I guess the best way to handle them is 1) don't eat the first one or 2)don't buy them in the first place. ALMONDS, well they are healthy, they are good for your body (these are my excuses) HOWEVER, that does not entitle me to eat half a can at a time! Butt kicking session is over.

I am holding my own today, no loss but mainly no gain. Today is another opportunity for success....I think I will take that path again today.

Blessings to each of you. Chargail

Down over a lb.

Thursday, November 1, 2007 00:08:08

After I posted yesterday I realized that one hour at a time is how I am going to have to deal with this situation! So I decided to take life that way and at the same time to chose my foods and exercise the same way. I did have a much better day of food choices, however, the exercise wasn't any better because it was such a busy day at the office. BUT, the results are in this morning and I am officially down 1.4 pounds.

I tend to think of exercise as something one does that is very structured, however, I am beginning to realize that exercise is not ALWAYS a regime. Take for instance, when the park is real busy, then my body is real busy....I am getting up from my chair hundreds of times a day, while reaching up and out getting cards from the rack or putting cards in the rack. This up and down movement along with all the stretching movements should constitute physical exercise. Especially since my office chair does not have arms on it, each time I get up I am pushing myself up using leg muscles, stomach muscles, etc. Maybe I am on to something here!!!!

I am happy with the downward movement and I am going to try to make today a success also.

OH YES, yesterday the temps were in the low 70's......today......maybe, just maybe we will see 60 . I had gotten use to the nice temps!

Blessings to each of you for success, happiness, health and peace in your lives. Chargail

Slacker

Thursday, November 1, 2007 00:07:08

Yes, that is what I am becoming . Can't seem to get my mojo going again. I have been hanging around the same weight for what seems like weeks now.

Mentally and physically I seem to have just flaked out on myself.

I am having serious brain farts here, I know I am not eating right and I start my day with the gung ho thought of TODAY will be the beginning of eating right but then by noon.....you got it!!! brain farts (they make you forget what you are suppose to be doing). I catch myself eating things that I know are not good for me .

Exercise is non-existent right now, good intentions are not worth a dang if you don't follow through.

I don't know what is going on right now except I have let other things in life take presidence over my physical being. We are in the process of bidding the 2009 spring/summer jobs.....everyone wants us to come see them for thanksgiving and there is not enought of US to go around....granddaughter (now grandson) wants to come visit for thanksgiving and we have sorta promised daughter we will be with them and don't know how to tell granddaughter(now grandson) that we won't be here....get the idea?????? Reality is beating my butt big time and I am having a hard time dealing. Everythime I think I have come to grips with this situation....BAM....it hits me again, speaking of course about the granddaughter to grandson transformation.

Pray for me as you can tell I really need it, my blessings to you. Chargail

I am a witness

Thursday, November 1, 2007 00:05:19

I have been honored in this life to be witness to the greatness of this country and the Upmost greatness of our God.

I lived in Montgomery, AL during the civil rights march from Selma to Montgomery. I actually rode with a friend of mine past the marchers on the road from Selma to Montgomery. I was actually standing on a street corner on Dexter Ave. about 4 blocks from the Capitol steps in Montgomery when the marchers walked past headed to the Capitol. Last night I was priviledged to watch as an African-American was named President of The United States Of America..............proud?????????? you better know it!!

Equality has been an elusive dream for many, many people, both black and white, native american and hispanic....now, just maybe a barrier has been broken down.

Pray for this man and this country. Many blessings, Chargail

Busy Days

Tuesday, October 30, 2007 21:00:21

Busy days of doing nothing. Wrong title??? not really!! It has been terribly slow here at the park due to the chillier weather. Great news, the temps started climbing today and things are really beginning to pickup. I don't like having nothing to do ...I like to be busy, busy, busy, busy....get the idea.

About my dancing in the office you see...my job is sorta different. Hubby and I do contract park attendant work for the USACE. We man a gatehouse that is located within the entry to the park. It is a nice office with bathroom and a kitchen area complete with fridge, coffee pot, microwave, etc. We also have a TV in the office and we only see our boss about every 2 weeks. We have a lot of free time on our hands during the slow season and that is why I have so much time to "dance" in the office or workout with my hand weights or do floor exercises, on a mat of course. There is a certain amount of computer work as well as paperwork that we have to do but it doesn't take long and that leaves me with a lot of free time to "workout", read, work on bible studies, watch tv, etc. It is the PERFECT JOB. It pays fairly decent and we work 4 days in a row and then have 4 straight days off.

Now, back to the real world....I have only been holding my own over the last couple of weeks. NO loss but NO gain. I don't think I am giving it my all to lose right now and I can't tell you why because I don't know myself. I have been sorta in a slump weight wise and it has reflected in my mental attitude. I just can't seem to get a program going that I will stick with.

NOT giving up here friends....just facing facts. But maybe, just maybe....I will get my thoughts and actions lined up together.

Blessings for success, happiness, health, wealth and peace in your lives. Chargail
