God Gave Me You

I am not a big fan of mushy love songs. As soon as they start, I change the channel. This one was different.
                                           Blake Shelton – God Gave Me You
I’ve been a walking heartache
I’ve made a mess of me
The person that I’ve been lately
Ain’t who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

[Chorus]
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I’ve lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you
The first time I heard this song it ALMOST  made me cry.   Okay, so maybe I did shed a tear or two.

I couldn’t help but think of my failed marriage from many moons ago (which I NEVER really think  or talk about anymore). Mainly because I know that this is the type of relationship this song is talking about, I got a little jelous, then  pissed but then I couldn’t stop thinkng of my sons. This is when I got really emotional.
GREG & CHRIS 14 years ago

This song perfecly describes how I feel about the two loves of my my life, Greg and Chris. I have always been so thankful for them, they bring great big smiles to my face and warmth to me heart. That’s pretty special, especially since they are teenagers now and they still have this effect on me. I don’t know how I would have made it through everything without them. The joy they bring me is indescribable. I have said it before and I will say it once more, they made me a better person.
My heart breaks for those who turn there backs on the one placed in their lifes to help them through this journey here on earth.

San Francisco in a Day

I have loved San Francisco ever since I was a kid. I love the cool air, the ocean-side views, the food, the stores, the many different and unique neighborhoods and so much more.   I especially love walking around pier 39. This is usually where I go when I hit the city.   The smell of the salt water, fish, clam chowder and the freshly baked sour dough bread that does not taste better anywhere else on earth makes my heart skip a beat. I make the short drive over to the city by the bay every chance I get. Luckily my not so little anymore cousin loves San Francisco just as much as I do.   When deciding what to do with our one full day together this past Monday, there was only one choice! This trip did not go as smoothly as all of my other trips to San Francisco but it was still fun and totally worth it. Traffic was crazy so we decided to take the Bart part of the way in. We had to try two different Bart stations and three different parking lots before we were able to find a spot to

Weight Loss Challenge: Week EIGHT UPDATE

For the third week in a row I have maintained my 9 pound weight-loss . This would be great if I only wanted to lose 9 pounds. The good thing here is that my daily activity and food intake are good enough to balance and maintain any additional weight-loss which means I have established some good habits. I am keeping my calories at a reasonable amount and my intake though out the day is pretty balanced. Here are some of my typical breakfast recipes . Natures Path Organic Instant oatmeal with 1 tsp. Ghirardelli Double Chocolate Hot Cocoa= 254 Calories I was not too hungry this morning and when I wanted to eat more a few hours later I had a banana. You could easily add fruit, milk or juice to beef up this breakfast. Shakes and smoothies are a staple in my diet. They are yummy and quick!!! Here are two different recipes I use regularly: 1 cup of Almond Milk 2 scoops Visalus Shake mix (I think any protein powder will do) 1/4 cup Mixed berries (sometimes I do as much
