It's day 6 into the new year, although it's only three days into the time I said I would begin my new way of being on January 3. I’ve only taken a tiny step. I guess it might depend on how you look at it, whether it’s tiny or insignificant. Firstly, I’ve cut my eating quantity in half and I’m drinking more water. And I’m feeling it, at least sometimes when I get hungry. Then my friend told me to eat six small meals, it works better that way. I had forgotten about doing it that way, ...

8 PM I tuned in to the two new Reality Shows that were on, The Swimsuit Model Search on NBC and the Road to Stardom by Missy Elliott. Somehow I find myself liking reality shows, at least some of them. I’m not too keen on these two though. My wandering fingers changed to ABC. What’s on, LOST! OMG! I forgot all about the new episode tonight. I turned in just as Jack was asking Kate to tell him the truth. Boy did I miss a lot. Anyhow, I watched until it was finished. 9 PM Alias...

I threw caution to the winds and told my family that we're going to Magic Kingdom before the year finished. Afterall, we had $300 worth of tickets, no way was I going to waste them. So, we got up early and you would think that everything would go ok for us to be on our merry way. Oh no, not with kids. You know the strangest thing, I was more excited than they were at the thought of going. Me, the big kid! We took the advice of our friends and bought food to take with us. Since I had ...

I’ve always been aware of the world of computers, or should I say technology and what it offers, mostly as an end user. I love surfing the net, I even put screen savers with photographs of family members or anyone I like on my PC. I think the term is Skin now? I’m not sure. Correct me if I’m wrong. I know how to use several software programs and how to search the web for information. However, it’s since I became an active participant of blogging at JU that I became even more aware of ...

You know there are two really important reason to go see a doctor. The first one is to keep yourself healthy. The second one is to find out if you're really sick and take preventive measures if you are. Am I right? My husband as been complaining of one thing or the other the last couple of months, say, since October. I commisserate with him, I cuddle him, I give him tablets. I yell at him, go see a doctor. I ask him if he's been in pain for a long time, does it really bother you so m...

It's that time again, time to make resolutions, make promises that won't be kept or be completely broken. Ah yes, you know it, the New Year's Resolution. It will be the talk of all media network for the entire month of January and possibly two weeks in February. It is said that time when people make a New Year's resolution, the plan only lasts for about two weeks and then it's gone, lost. People just lose their focus. The promises to lose weight, start exercising, saving money, start ...

I wasn't sure what to entitle this piece. I've been thinking about this a lot recently, Faith and what it means to me. Recently, a week or two a go, I was channel surfing and saw a program called "Faith Under Fire" on Pax TV. I've never watched this program, nor did I know about it. Upon observation, they were talking about Faith and Christianity; whether Christianity needed updating; what it is; is God real? Stuff like that. I’m not a born-again Christian, meaning, I haven’t b...

Just sharing a joke I received recently. I'll never look at bra's the same again! A man walked into the ladies department of a Macy's and shyly walked up to the woman behind the counter and said, "I'd like to buy a bra for my wife. What type of bra?" asked the clerk. Type?" inquires the man, "There's more than one type? Look around," said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material imaginable. Actually, even with all of this variety,...

I gave my teenage daughter a shampoo and blowdried and styled her hair. I was in the kitchen afterwards and my oldest was watching television in the living room while my youngest, the three year old was on the floor busy coloring. So the older one made a comment that her ears were ringing. I said to her, you probably got water in it from washing your hair. It will soon go away. My toddler stops what she was doing, looks up at her older sister, then hops onto the sofa besides her, pul...

Here I am, sitting here feeling like crap, wondering when this feeling came upon me. I've been swinging back and forth with these moods feeling happy, contented... then sad All I want to do is cry I've been holding out because I hate when I get like this. It's so destructive to be this way I want to rant and rage and scream. I guess if I did I would feel a lot better. I wish I was home and could beat my pillow to a pulp and scream all my frustrations into it. But I’m at w...

1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Christmas spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they're serving rum balls. 2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly. Like fine single-malt scotch, it's rare. In fact, it's even rarer than single-malt scotch. You can't find it any other time of year but now. So drink up! Who cares that it has 10,000 calories in every sip? It's not as if you're going to...
