a fictional book..
Well, I am reading one from our local library now but I don't know if I like it all that much. BUT, I just finished another one by BrandiLynn Collins that I loved!
It was Crimson Eve. I really enjoy all of her books. Check it out! You might too!

Day twelve..

Something I am OCD about...
I would say my home. I like my home to be cozy, homey and CLEAN. I have had to learn to let some of my OCD nature regarding things out and not put away (like toys and books etc) go. I am still even now learning or trying to learn to relax.
I like my home to be neat and put together. I can be like a drill Sargent sometimes in this area..:(
I can literally think better when my home is clean and uncluttered.
But, I believe there to be a balance and I am striving to find it. :)

Day eight...

A photo that makes me angry/sad...
Not such a fun topic today but let me see...

This picture makes me sad and angry.. This is me at the end of 2007 as I had just started my weight loss journey. This pic even better lets you see how heavy I was. It makes me sad that I got to this point and although I know it was from many years of having many babies I still tear up when I see these pictures. And it makes me angry at myself that I endangered my health in this manner. I had no energy, was out of breath and life just didn't have the sparkle it does today.

I don't have alot of sad /angry pics but this one fits the bill.. Today I am 80 pounds lighter or more! Thank you L-rd Yeshua!!

A photo that makes me happy...
Can I share a few that make me happy??
This is me the first day of Weight Watchers Dec. 10, 2007. I took this picture to document the beginning of a new life!  Weight Watchers has changed my life! I am thinner now than I have been in at least 10 years or more. I thank G-d for this program every day! 

 

This is our van. We got it in Jan. 2009. This picture makes me happy because it reminds me of how AWESOME my L-rd is and how He always provides!

This pic makes me happy because this man, my sweet dh is the love of my life! And everything that followed our wedding day has brought so much happiness and fulfillment.

KianAdley's birth 5-17-10...My baby's birth-days have been the most amazing events in my life! The L-rd has blessed me with awesome labors and births and has given me such wonderful experiences.

This makes me happy and sad..my sweet baby girl RuthAnne who passed on in 2002. I look forward to the day when I get to hold her again...in glory...

Blessings!
