Chicken Soup for the Soul Anyone?
Life is a Dance
a movement of rhythms
a movement of directions
a movement of stumbles
a movement of missteps
at time slow & precise
or fast and wild and joyous. (Borrowed from “Chicken Soup for the Soul”)
As I sit here at my computer this morning I feel soooooooooooo blessed. I’m so lucky to have this time…as I look for special cards for special occasions and special friends I realize just HOW LUCKY I really am in life
How do they say it??? when life hands you lemons just make lemonade :) I really like that!!! makes me smile :) I do believe most of us here have had our share of lemons in life!!!
My husband and I have recommitted ourselves today on our healthy eating. We have definitely made a few slip ups “sigh”
He has gained back his original 10 pounds and my clothes are not getting any loser :( So down we go again…but picking ourselves up and dusting off.
My mother in law and step daughter will be here on August 6th for a short visit. I look forward to this time with them. I’m already planning some healthy snacks and meals. My mother in law LOVES to eat!!! but hey so do I!!!! I hope she will enjoy my choices of healthy eating. She is a diabetic and hopefully will appreciate my efforts to cook healthy.
Can we please all remember to include extra prayers for our dear Angela. My heart breaks thinking of her situation. Let God be right by her side and help her through all the rough times.
Monday — Healthy Dinner 
- BarBQ Chicken (white meat, no skin)
- Baked Sweet Potatoes (Splenda brown sugar and spray butter (0 calories)

Tall Glass of Ice Water, Good Company of my Husband…The presence of God at our dinner table…and thoughts of all my dear friends here at BuddySlim.
Before I leave….let me share one more thing
People are lonely because they build walls instead of bridges.
Finally, let all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, loving as brothers, compassionate, humble minded.
1 Peter 3:8
Gods blessings and love to you all. Eat healthy…Snack wisely…Walk quickly…and Love with everything you have!!!!
Good morning Jane. What a great blog…..I so needed some inspiration this morning. Not so much weight struggles….just life. I am glad to hear that you have recommitted yourself to a healthy lifestyle. All the luck and much love coming your way. Have a wonderful visit with your MIL and step-daughter.
hmm, I can so relate…As soon as I finish dusting myself off, I fall back down, face first in the dirt again! LOL…Something has got to give! Now that dinner sounds delicious!…Gonna have to steal that one for tonight…And great saying about the walls and bridges…I think that will help many people who read it, and it is exactly what I am trying to do once again. Have a great day Jane!

I really hate being out of the loop. What happened with Angela now? She hasn’t left my prayers and neither have you my dear buddy. Should I bring over the pledge and dusting rag to help with the dusting?
