What I Wore

This is what I usually wear.

After I shower I put on yoga pants.

It's hard to want to wear my pretty clothes just to sit around the house!!

I like to keep my things nice,

so why wear them out sitting on my couch with my dog!?

Someone I Love

I love many people.

Different varieties of love.

Friendship.

Family.

Passion.

Kindness.

Service.

 

But these are the people I love the most.

Animals

I love animals.

They are wonderful, pure creatures.

You never have to guess what a dog, or cat, or cow is thinking.

They wear their emotions right out there for everyone to see.

 

Molly is my old, chubby, ornery cat.

She sleeps on the end of my bed,

and when I cant sleep,

I rub my toes on her fur and it lulls me of to dreamland every time.

Last June (2015) we got a kitten,

and last September (2015) we got Kato,

and she has finally decided to forgive me.

 

 

 

 Kato is a simple creature.

He just wants someone to snuggle with,

and food.

That's it.

He loves Ella and Scarlet and misses them while they're at school.

He is always so excited to see them when they get home.

We walk to school in the mornings,

and if I forget to close the pet door,

we will soon here toenails tearing down the asphalt after us.

His eyes will be bright and he's so pleased with himself for following,

and I swear there's a smile on his face.



A Good Habit

I. Drink. Water.

There are few good habits I adhere to,

but this is one of them.

There are few things I have little patience with,

or judge,

but the whole "I don't like water, it doesn't taste good",

is something I just can not abide.

Drink water.

It's good for you.

We're adults.

 

Very few other things, if any, do I get righteously indignant about.

This, and vegetables!!

 

Inspirational

These are a few of the quotes I have found that really lift me up and help me go on.

 

 

 

 

 

I could post a dozen more.

But I'll leave it at this!!

 

My Shoes

My shoes are either this:

 

 

Or this:

 

There is seriously little in between!!

I get some teasing for my ultra high heels.

My "hooker" shoes.

But you know what, I'm short.

And I have VERY flat feet.

So forcing them into such a high arch is actually more comfortable than a flip flop.

Which provides me ZERO support.

 

These are my "old trusty" pumps.

Not too high.

Black, genuine leather.

Classic, and basic.

These are "pearl" shoes!!

They are so old I don't remember when I got them,

they are molded to my feet.

These are shoes, that if they are ever damaged,

I will not throw them away and replace them.

I will have them repaired!!



Obsession

I was looking at my blog, and the lack of posting,

and I decided I needed to do another blog challenge!!

I love my blog.

It's just for me and about my family.

I like to look back on all the posts like a journal,

and I enjoy the writing aspect.

 

Today's topic: Obsession

Now, I don't like the term 'obsession'.

Because I think it is negative to be 'obsessed' with something.

To me being obsessed, means something has taken over your life and is all you care about.

So I would like to share things that I 'immensely enjoy' instead!!

 



 I really like my Vitamix.

It has an awesome amount of power.

I make smoothies or shakes at the flip of a button.

All of my Shakeology and Advocare takes so much better when thoroughly blended with ice!!

I recently discovered it can grind wheat.

Amazing!!

Now I can rotate some of my food storage,

or have more options when I am not prepared on Sunday!!

And it's self cleaning.

Like a cat.

 

 

 I do everything I can to be healthy.

Good health is not something I enjoy,

so I work very hard to maintain a decent quality of life,

and to find balance in every day.

So this pile is deployed to action every day!!

 

 

 I enjoy fitness.

Sometimes I finish a work out and I feel like an Olympian,

and like nothing can touch me.

 

Sometimes it sucks the. whole. damn. time.

And I finish wanting to cry,

and I verbally abuse whatever hateful, narcissistic trainer I followed that day.  

But I am always glad I did it.

Even if it was awful.

It makes my day better.

If no other right choices are made that day,

at least I did my work out!!!
