We can always choose to perceive things differently.
You can focus on what's wrong in your life,
or you can focus on what's right.

I did pretty well with my food today. I had my shake this morning. Some days I'm finding it hard to drink two, not because I don't like them, because they fill me up so much. Which is definitely a good thing. I am not eating nearly as much as I probably should, but that's ok. There are several days of the week that I do drink 2. I try to have them for breakfast & lunch. But I drink one at 8, and then I go to lunch at 1, and may days I am not even hungry by 1. Which I don't think is a bad thing. Today, I had a peanut butter & jelly sandwich. I had some left over spaghetti for dinner. Not a lot, but enough to just hold me over so I was no longer hungry.

I picked Lexi up from church as her youth group went to the beach today. She had a great time, but got way too much sun. She definitely keeps getting redder & redder as the night goes on.

I got some exercise today. Went for a walk for over an hour. I walk almost every day at some point in the day. Sometimes right after work.
I hurt my foot, I have a huge gash in the bottom of my foot, and it's getting worse.

Today was a good day at work. Then I got in a funky mood. Realized that we are approaching the 15th anniversary of my husbands death. God, it's been so long since he died. It makes me so sad to think of all he has missed in our lives, especially Lexi. She is an amazing young lady. I know he'd be proud. Cause I am so proud of her. I don't think she gets how proud I really am of her! She is not perfect, and I don't expect her to be. She thinks I do, but I think she'll get that when she grows up & has kids of her own. I just want what's best of her!

I also started to reflect on how life has changed. The Internet has taken off, and now there's facebook, and blogging and all kinds of technology, cell phones, are not just cell phones, they are smart phones. Life has changed so much. We used to have pagers, and pay phones, and house phones. Many people no longer have house phones either. It's kind of funny how many things have changed. It's so hard raising a child today in this ever changing world.


Well my day in a nutshell!
Hope you all have a great evening.


God Speed.
