Domestic Violence

13 Jan

I got up way early this morning, my hips were hurting me and I just couldn’t get comfortable. Since Comcast took all but 8 channels away from us unless we buy one of their new digital boxes there isn’t much on in the morning except for news programs. I can’t stand watching this news any more, especially in the morning. There is way too much depressing news on, not a good way to start the day.

The only thing that I could find one other than news was Jerry Springer, which I never, ever watch. My nephew was on the Jerry Springer show a few years back and informed us on just how much it is all just a bunch on nonsense so I really don’t see the point of watching it knowing it is all fake. Besides being fake, it is all about people fighting with each other which really jerks my chain. How can they promote all of this physical violence and not expect the general public to act the same way and think that they will get away with it. In the real world when you assault someone you go to jail!

 

Putting Them Down Once and For All

29 Dec

New Year’s Resolutions have never really been my cup of tea. But this year I am diving in, head first, with the promise of putting down the smoking of cigarettes that I have been participating in for way too long. The price of tobacco products has just gotten crazy and I’m tired of paying the high prices for something that is totally unhealthy for me. Wish me luck!

 

 

Christmas Cheer

24 Dec

I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas!

Our plans include a short visit with family Christmas morning and then an afternoon at home cooking a nice Christmas dinner and baking some cookies. I have been baking cookies every few days for the past couple of weeks and they never last more than one night! So my vision of having a big plates of assorted cookies on Christmas is just not going to happen. But I will have some kind of cookies on a plate tonight – and then I will have to stop baking for a couple of months while we all go on diets to lose these extra 10 pounds we have gained since Thanksgiving!

 

A Body Wrap For Me

18 Dec

Something that I have always wanted to try was a body wrap. I think I’ll have to start hinting to my husband that for one of the up and coming holidays, such as my birthday, mother’s day and our anniversary, that I would really like to give these cool body wraps that you can use at home a shot and see if they can help me with the few added pounds that I have put on these past few years.

I know that a woman of my age is expected to put a few extra pounds on around the mid section, but I don’t like it one bit and would really appreciate getting back to my original weight this year and preferably before summer when I will be going out in public in my bathing suit.
