Special Olympics Bowling A Big Success!!
Life is so full of blessings….one of which is having BuddySlim to come home to. A place to feel comfortable and not to be judged or criticized. A safe haven to share stories and hear others stories and journeys. Somewhere you can just be yourself 
I’m so blessed to have become a Big Sister to Katelin. She is “considered special education” and let me tell you this girl is SPECIAL. She has touched my heart in a way I can’t explain. I’m amazed at the love her parents have for her, and I feel with enough encouragement and support Katelin will find her way through this journey in life. It won’t ever be easy for her, but with some guidance, and lots of love she’ll shine right out there!!
I have so much fun watching all the kids in Special Olympics shine on their big bowling day. Yup, we were there at 8:00 a.m. And Yup again, nothing was going to tempt me. I enjoyed watching them bowl and food was the farthest thing from my mind :) but not little Katelin (well shes not so little, and she loves to eat)
The bowling ended around 10:30 with Katelin coming in 2nd for her team. She did really well and had fun, but once it was over all she wanted was lunch. So off to Subway we went!! Aaahhhaaa my favorite!! and I knew I could find a healthy choice.
The day couldn’t have been any better…fun for all.
We went to see Dad, and he was in his wheelchair waiting at the front door for us..LOL!!! he was glued to the front window with this big ole shitty grin on his face!! GOD IS GOOD!!! That was enough to make life so worth living. To see Dad out of that bed and smiling was priceless.
He has been made this huge turnaround and we can’t figure it out but we sure are thanking God!! Hoping he will be home this week, god knows he is working hard enough.
My scale has sadly gone up 2 pounds. Not sure what is going on, but I’m gonna just get real serious here. My vacation is just around the corner and the temptations will be endless. I have a wonderful mother-in-law, but eating is her favorite thing!!! She loves food…I LOVE FOOD…OMG!! I’m going to need alot of help!!! but I’ll get through it.
Ok…babbled enough…lots of catching up to do on the blogs. Hope everyone had a healthy happy weekend!!

You had better take time to pray until Jesus is glorified in your eyes; then you will be able to make HIM glorious to others.
Aimee Semple McPherson
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Matthew 5
Glad you had such a wonderful weekend Jane! Sounds like some of your prayers have been answered as well.
PS, I promise to be VERY careful on my bike…once I get one, lol!
The scale is Subway…although it is good has LOTS of sodium. I am so glad you had a good time and stayed away from the bowling alley food.
you are amazing — so awesome to give of yourself, isn’t it just like God to give to us in return when we give to others — He just smiled at you and told you that He loves you!!!
Came looking for you Jane to see how your weekend went. Looks like it was a FUN FILLED FANTASTIC WEEKEND!!! So happy that you and Katlin found each other. Happier to hear the news of your dad. The 2pounds? Gotta agree with Lyssa. Sodium will do it to ya. Just keep plugging away at it. Maybe you can get your mom in law to jump on the bandwagon with you on vacation? Tell her what your trying to do, what you’ve learned, etc. It might just get her to start eating healthier.
Big HUGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGS my friend,

Great job Jane, dont worry we all go up and down a little bit but it will come back off. Great news about your dad. As always prayer works. -Dee
You are an angel!! God is so going to bless you for being sop giving! Don’t sweat the 2 pounds, they will come off quick! Hugs,Kama
Yay, I’m so happy that you had a good weekend and that your dad is doing better! I agree with the other commenters about the 2 pounds. Sodium makes one retain LOTS of water. I had a really salty soup one evening and my weight went up three pounds the next day even though I stayed within my calorie limit. Have a great week!
hey girlie….dont you worry about those 2lbs. It’s only a little blip. You’ve been doing so well, even with all thestress youve been under recently.
You are such an amazing person! You go girl! You will lose those 2 lbs. before you know it!
