A Good Fortune ...

"In dreams and in life, nothing is impossible"

That was today's fortune from the cookie that I had here . My dear husband had to leave for a trip and forgot something at home, so we met halfway and took the 3 girls to lunch. It was a great treat and nice little break. By the way, this restaurant chain is soooooooo yummy. My little {c} was a perfect angel and thoroughly enjoyed her honey seared shrimp and rice (shared with mommy).

BACK TO MY FORTUNE ...

I really need to make the effort to be more positive. My life is filled with many, MANY blessings and for that I am thankful. I KNOW that I dwell on negatives too much. Sometimes the negatives have absolutely nothing to do with me, but I let them permeate me. This has got to be one of my biggest flaws. I need to let go, be happy, and look for the positives.

SO HERE IS ONE GREAT POSITIVE that I am praying for (and I could use all the prayers that anyone else would like to send my way). This has to do with my husband. The other day I went to the Church volunteer fair and picked up a variety of stuff. One of the pamphlets I took was for the R.C. I. A. program. My husband knows what it is, and we have spoke of it a few times, but when I half heartedly threw the pamphlet to him, he said that he almost went to the meeting this past week, but he got caught up at work with his boss. My jaw dropped. Could my subtle suggestions all these years actually be WORTH my breath and time?????? R. C. I. A. meets on Wednesday evenings, and next week I will take my husband to one. THIS IS SO HUGE. I have a WONDERFUL marriage, but this would be icing. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY ....

Go directly to your local Catholic book store and purchase a GREEN Scapular and stick it in his wallet. PRAY PRAY PRAY... and say a novena or two to St. Monica.

After 15 years of marriage Carl one day said "I am going to meet with Fr. D" So I know that God listens to EVERY prayer!

Feeling every bit of 46 ... ugh!

When I was 45, I was feeling fabulous.   I was fit, energetic, and I thought I could easily pass for 40;) Age was just a number and I certainly didn't think I felt or looked my true age. Then February 11th came and I turned 46.   I have sciatica on my left side, my left knee is stiff, and I have plantar fasciitis in my right foot.   I've resorted to stretching all the time and popping the occasional anti-inflammatory.   There are dark circles under my eyes that I've had to start putting concealer on.   My hair is growing out from last years 45 year old short hair, but it's just in an awkward stage.  I can't decide if I want to cut it again or let it grow out.   I even thought of styling my hair differently by doing a different hair part.   That was a terrible idea because I was SHOCKED to see how much gray is now growing in the center of my scalp.  I also think my metabolism is slowing down because my mid section seems a little thicker ... ...

"The Loveliness of The Seashore"

What is the "Seashore" like? "Where the sky meets the sea ... The seashore is a place where the sea and the sky are the same smoky gray until ... the morning sun breaks through. The hot noonday sun feels warm as a big soft cat covering you. And it seems there is nothing in the world except the sound of the wind and the rising and falling of waves." Over at Dawn 's there are so many wonderful books suggested on her blog. Earlier this month I couldn't help but to peek at some of them ... thanks Dawn! *The above quote came from The Seashore Book . The ocean moves in and then moves out. This place where water, sky and earth meet is never the same. The tide comes in, the tide goes out, each wave that returns pushes against the incoming swell as it is pulled back into the endless depths and swallowed into the vastness of an unknown deep. Such is each day of our "daily" lives. I grew up enjoying the sights, sound, and the surf of the NY/Jersey "shor...

A scattered post ...

I throw myself into stuff all the time.  It can be anything from the start of a swim season, a new school year, the election, a vacation, an exercise routine etc.  I'm kind of in a phase where I really don't know what my focus should be.  I turned on the television and honestly, I have no idea what is on this fall season ... NO IDEA AT ALL .  If I watched television in the past few months, it was something kid related or Fox News. I NEED A NEW FOCUS. My current thoughts  ... reading a fictional, just for fun book stepping up my exercise routine thinking about our Christmas wish lists and shopping baking more ... I really am slacking in this area ways to save money so that we can get a new (second) washer and dryer for the upstairs (not a fancy kind because this would mostly be used by my oldest two children)... I actually have hookups. I wonder if a lot of people go through a sort of "lull" period this time of the year.  Surely it doesn't last long with the start ...
