Not a blog, just my journal...for now.

   Life...it's been busy, good, hard, tiring, demanding, rewarding and all over the place. Work is good, I seem to have found a good groove that balances my schedule with my limitations. I absolutely love my work! I'm very thankful for the talents I have been given.

    Pinterest is still a favorite. I've pinned some great pins and love the site. January marks a year that I have enjoyed the site. It's so silly exciting to actually "make" one of my pins. 

     This new year has prompted the continuation of a healthier me, with an even stronger desire and determination. I love cooking, especially knowing what I'm cooking it good for my health. I'm still limited physically, my left arm doesn't raise above shoulder height. I have enjoyed walks and hikes around the nearby lake, at the two local parks(they are connected). My dog LillyBean loves our walks. Romeo, my tripod can't quite make the whole 2 and 1/2 miles..so he gets shorter jaunts closer to home.

     Anywho, my plan tomorrow is to take down my outside Christmas decorations. It's been so rainy I needed them to dry out before putting them back in storage. It's a little sad seeing all of Christmas getting packed up.

     So far I'm loving 2013, so much more to come!

Using my pins from Pinterest...tonight, Meatloaf!

So, I used a recipe I had pinned...Easy Meatloaf. I wasn't going for the healthiest, the kid has been asking for meatloaf?!? It has probably been a year or more since I made meatloaf. It wasn't the prettiest, I can say I know a couple of things I will do a little different next time. This meatloaf was like a lopsided cake...it still tasted GOOOOD! One more fun thing ...I finally used my Paula Deen dish!! Tonight was comfort food, so of course we had mashed potatoes along side. I have love for all things white and yellow... starchy and carb. My best defense was to try and add a little health  into this meal...we had fresh cantaloupe for dessert. Hope your evening was a good one!

...plans into action...

...well I've been trying to incorporate my exercise into my daily routine, had a few injury set backs there...BUT NOT GIVING UP!!

So, on this gray, rainy day, I'm going to try and put some of my Pinterest projects into to play...and make them a reality, instead of my virtual wish...

I heard there is a big football game today, maybe called the Superbowl?? If that's for you...ENJOY!!

Pinterest = Crack

...so my latest internet addiction, Pinterest. I love it!! It's like all that stuff you have saved to your computer, your magazine collection, the best of blogging and CRACK...rolled into one. It actually is quite inspiring in many ways, I am using it for ideas for the house, health, fun and a little daydreaming. I learned quickly I had to set a timer, I can't put the ideas into play if I don't leave the computer... Anywho, this blog is more me talking to myself...my memory that seems to be frazzled or declining...will now be documented to some extent via my little keyboard.
