Life happens...

I had done what I consider pretty well, with posting on a regular basis. Then, life happened !!!

I am not so busy that I cannot sit down and write what is on my mine on a daily basis, if I can find the time to run for 90 minutes a day , I should be able to sit still long enough to share a thought or two. I think that if writing my blog were as rewarding and self indulgent as running is... I would be able to carve out the time.

However currently it is not.

I do have a thought today, (12:50 am). If you are not getting ANYTHING from an action... why would you continue to do the action.???

Can someone explain that to me.

Fresh air and attitude

I could dwell on the fact that I cannot run due to my injury... but in my walk to see exactly how far I can go on this ankle , the fresh air really made me feel good. I will have to do a little in the morning and a little in the evening but... I will get back out there.

I have been reading blogs and watching vlogs and I am so not in the league to even call myself a blogger. However, I like this and after I write it is akin to after I exercise...it is like one really long and deep and healthy breathe of the freshest air.


I like this.

Positive....perceived personality

If anyone reads this, please just do me a favor and try to be positive in all you do. I cannot stress this enough.

You will be amazed how a positive disposition can help your health physically and mentally and improve your perceived personality :)

You don't have to be fake but you can just choose to see the good where often times others would see none.

You be the example and maybe others will follow....

Rocky Road Ice Cream...

If I did not run 40- 50 miles a week would I still eat Rocky Road Ice Cream?

While purchasing ice cream today, some people (note more than one) commented...that if they had legs like mine they would be buying ice cream as well. Now I wonder if I had been morbidly obese would they have felt that it was okay to comment on a strangers consumption of ice cream...

Then again Rush Limbaugh said today.... that exercise only increases your appetite and that is why he has lost 82 pounds without any exercise and when he did exercise by "golfing" he gained 2 pounds. I cannot even begin to comment on that... I must end before I delete his words :)

Giving them something they can feel!!

I have reconnected with friends who I have known for over 30 years.
These people are really friends...I believe this...

I suppose I should give you the insight to why my blog is titled such.

I had a great weekend and upon returning to work a co worker asked how it went.
Another staff member who is not originally from the US heard us speaking and told me.

I thought you had a good time "your face is telling me so" I have always loved that line ever since.


It maybe the memory of Aruba and surfing or just the 10 days of no cell phones or internet.

Often my face tells and I keep my words to myself.

Unfortunately here you don't have the option of my face telling you so.

Take care and will be more diligent in the next week. PROMISE.

Home....Age Appropiate GREAT GRAND PARENTS..

I think this will be what I call home until I get up the NERVE to write that dang book... hankering to get out of me.

I don't know if what I will talk about will make people want to read, I don't even know if I care.

I do know that I want to be disciplined enough to write on a regular basis... daily is good. Then I can reward myself by taking off a month and getting my footing for the BOOK DEAL. I am surprising myself. :)

For now here I am. My niece is 6 today and my mother and father turned 76 last week.
I say this because I am blessed that they are alive and well, but because I am a normal African American Female who happens to not have any children and to have parents who are NOT Great Grandparents and are not 45 or younger. Can I say a Good Times , Florida....
DAYUM DAYUM DAYUM !!!!!!!!!!!!!

(do the math.. you are 15 you have a child
she does the same at 15 your grand child
not to be outdone at 15 your great grand child.... 45 freaking years old.... DAYUUUUUUMMMM!!!!!!!
