Jan. 20, 2007 - So -- how it is going?
I'm wondering if the powers that be are feeling the pinch. I've "heard of" a few deserters... do they know that? If we all leave blogs here so we can comment... but really blog somewhere else... that probably doesn't make the count go down any.
I watch my blogs through my Google home page. When I click on a name of a blog, I don't know before hand if it is HSB or not... but as it slowly loads... I think... "Oh... this one must be on HSB." That's too bad. I wonder what happened to cause that.
Wel -- I'll update you a little here. We are all healthy and well. Praise GOD! But by the grace of God, huh!?!
Mansel is at a wrestling tournament today. His Dag and sister are tagging along. Victoria is going to video tape it today. She's getting pretty good at that. Last year we saw a lot of ceiling shots. HA HA
Today -- I'm home with the 3 littles. I think I'll excercise some then shower, then do some organizing. My dining room needs straightened... I think I'll go in there.
My weight is still slowing falling off. I'm 23 pounds away from my goal now. I was looking in the mirror and wondering if when I looked at myself, if I still looked fat. If when other people looked at me that thought... "boy she could stand to lose a few pounds". My fear is that I'll get thin, then look ugly. I don't think really thin people are attractive. In fact I think when people lose a drastic amount of weight that their faces look old and haggard. I'd rather look at a plump pleasant face, then a thin narrow, sad looking one. I'm trying to make sure my countenance reflects Jesus as I lose weight. If my goal weight is too thin... hmmm... I wonder what i'll do. HA HA HA..
I notice the closer I get the slower it is coming off too. I may have to change my ending date. But I've always said, 'I'll be happy at 150", which is above my goal. So maybe I'll settle back at that weight once I reach my goal. I'm NOT going to change my goal... but well -- we'll see... I may hit my goal -- decide if I like it or not -- then settle somewhere else. Ü
It's supposed to snow again this weekend. My kids are LOVING the sledding weather. The county dug out our ditches this summer. In fact they were doing that during one of the hottest day of the year. I drove down there to talk to them and was sweating by the time I hit the car. Whew... but I remembered thinking, "That's going to be a great sledding place." Luckily we don't have much traffic on our road when it isn't planting or harvest season. Especially during the day, when school is in session. So -- my kids drug their sleds up to the top of the hill... and we have our own private sledding run. Probably 100 feet long. Straight, smooth, no rocks, trees, or shrubs in the ditch because they scooped all that stuff out this summer. Flat and straight down hill. The only probablem is that it ends in a creek... but they've managed to stop before they hit that most times. Besides... it's frozen. The sun is just peeking up over the horizon and it's still in single digits. 9° Woo hoo..
I'm going through the Command of Christ on-line at IBLP for my devotions and really learning a lot. I'm also going through them at Church at a much slower pace. I pray that all that I'm hearing will really sink in! I think it is AWESOME how the Holy Spirit was directing my devotional life. I'm getting these commands at home, then 3 times on Sunday. NEAT!
Well -- It's around 8:00... I better go get the littles ready to greet the day.
GOOD MORNING!!

Thanks for the comments on my blog and I'm glad you are on the CMseries group too! I am really loving the incentive to read through the CM volumes as a group.
Anyway, glad you like the blog and I hope you do become a friend. So is your main blog on HSB or somewhere else?

Thanks for the comment!!!!! You hit the nail on the head. In fact, I am thinking about having it embossed on cards and passing it out at church tonight. I really needed the laugh as well as the perfect understanding that you communicated.

I didn't know you could access IBLP studies online...I will be looking into that!!
(and P.S., no, chocolate chips will never cut it if put side by side with Swiss or German chocolate....sorry! but you couldn't get to your goal weight anyway if you were over here being tempted by all that chocolate!!) |
