First of all, Happy Easter to everyone! I hope that everyone remembered the true meaning of Easter yesterday... not eggs but an empty tomb... a risen Saviour that died for us and then arose.. unmerited favor... unlimited love and grace.... Thank you, God... for loving me though I am so unlovable and so undeserving... and yet, you still call me your child... undeserving of even one second of grace... but given eternity... I don't understand it all, but I am so thankful!!!
I hope that everyone got to spend time with their families yesterday. I did. The program at our church was very good. Everyone did a good job.... Diane was in it.... I enjoyed it very much. I came home after church and watched the Food Network for a bit and then read for a while and went to bed.
I needed to do some errands today but just didn't feel up to it. I didn't sleep well last night and got up feeling groggy and had a headache. I called Diane and Sue and we went to lunch and back to her house. We got sandwiches and sodas.... and Diane and I got coffee... Jessica came to Diane's with Munchkin and we spent the afternoon playing with her.... Sue and I headed home and she provided me with dinner tonight... ribs and roast potatoes... yum! At the moment, "Dancing with the Stars" is on... I like watching it....
Tomorrow, I have to do some laundry and I need to go grocery shopping... even the "kids" need food.... I live with furkids and I have to keep them fed.. or they may come after me! he he he...
I seriously need to go on a "life change".... I don't like to call it a diet... because I need to get in gear and lose weight.. I've lost weight twice and then put it back on... Diane and Lamar are cutting back.. I've been thinking about it for 2 months and I've been thinking about going walking as soon as it's warm enough... we have a very nice sports complex here in town.. and it has a good track...
I am really disappointed in myself... when our Dad got sick, I started eating whatever I wanted and started putting on weight again. I have been eating whatever I wanted whenever I wanted and ever how much I wanted... it's time to get a grip and get back on track... I felt so much better and felt a lot better about myself when I lost weight... I want that back... And as far as I'm concerned, surgery is not an option for me because I've lost weight twice already and I know I can do it again... I just have to get in gear and do it!
Well, I want to check my mail and visit some friends, so, I'll go for now... I hope you are all well and life is good.... Hugs to all...... Cecil
P.S. I am thankful for the sunshine because there is still flooding in our state and many have lost homes, businesses... which means jobs.. and property and pets and livestock... please keep them all in your prayers... Thank you... C.

Hi Cecil,
I've been watching "Dancing With The Stars", too! I love that show!
I like your philosophy on your "life change" - or as Suzanne Sugarbaker said, "It's a live-it, not a diet." I'm getting ready to hit the ol' treadmill myself.
I'm glad to hear that you had such a nice Easter...I hope you have a wonderful week as well.

Good Afternoon Cecil,
I'm so glad you had a wonderful Easter. Ours was pretty quiet around here. My Parents did come up for a bit, but that was about it. We all should remember the true meaning of Easter. I am like you, I am so not worthy of GOD's Love and his mercy and grace, but I am "THANKFUL" for it all. I am late in visiting today. I forgot to buy some coffee yesterday and I didn't have any this morning and I got one of my bad headache's and went back to bed after I took the girls to School. I had to go to the Dollar General Store a while ago and buy some coffee, so now I'm having my coffee. I'm hoping my headache will go away soon. I just took a couple of asprins too. I do like the sports complex that your town has. They are suppose to be building one similar to that in my hometown of Lepanto. We have a track to walk on here in town, but I am just too lazy to go walking around it. It's so hard to get motivated when you don't have anyone else walking or dieting with you. I know I need to lose some weight myself, but I just don't have the motivation. I did lose about 30 pounds a few years ago, but I have since gained it all back plus some. LOL. I wish you much luck on your new life change. Maybe when it warms up I will get motivated to do some walking as well. I have a manual treadmill that my DH bought me several years ago, but I don't use it. The flooding this month has been bad. We need to remember everyone that has been affected by the floods. So much devastation in those areas. Take care my friend and have a great day. I hope you get to feeling better as well. May God Bless You and Yours.
Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
Hey Cecil,
I completely forgot to "THANK YOU" for the Anniversary wishes you left for me yesterday. I guess my headache is really getting to me. Take care my friend and have a great day. May God Bless You and Yours.
Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
Cecil, I've never been what one would call fashionably thin but I put on all the weight I carry now when the boy's dad got sick and it's never come off.
I hear where you're coming from but I know we can do whatever we set out mind to.
Good luck.
