Good Day To Everyone and Happy ‘Start Of The Weekend’ To All…

Well, so far so good, I have created a mental list as previously discussed and I have actually started tackling some of the items on that list. I have included cleaning and deep cleaning items, and under ‘deep cleaning’ I have listed reorganizing my closet ‘for the umpteenth time’…gosh, I just feel so much more in control when my closet is in an order that I am satisfied with, and…I have completed that.  Slowly I will be moving from room to room preparing each in it’s turn for the holidays.

I have also started collecting recipe’s because I am expecting company and I want to have some pre-cooked meals in the frig, so I don’t spend the majority of my time in the kitchen instead of with my guest.  So I am slowly but steadily getting all of ‘my ducks in a row’.

And finally, the site that I was working on is established.  Although I still need to add quite a few things to it, at least it is functioning and has a clean and uncluttered look also it’s really quite easy to navigate through.  While building it I came across a few fun tools, and quite a few ’self created problems’ that I will probably be sharing with you in later posts.  And I am quite sure I will find a bunch of other items to add to that list before I have completed those pages.

If you would like to visit you can find it at FashionsFor.AFullFigure.info

Now while I was doing my ‘it’s all about the season thingy’ I came across this hilarious video. It has nothing to do with halloween…oh, and to those that indulge…Happy Halloween. It has nothing to do with Christmas or New Years, it’s just about FUN, besides I simply luv the song…enjoy and Happy Weekend To All…

I am not going to try and deceive you, I am no ’spring chicken’.  Age is rearing it’s nasty little head. Although signs of aging are apparent…to say the least…I don’t feel old; I feel seasoned, more aware, a little more rounded.

These phrases like ‘over the hill or ‘SENior citizen’…well, my response to stuff like that is ‘I have seen that hill and many more…now, I am ready to view the next one; and ‘I have SEN your car, SEN your garden…SEN lots of things even lots of citizen…and your point.

I have experienced many seasons, seen and heard many things…everything that I’ve touched and everything that has touched me has subsequently led to who ME is! Some of those things are buried in memory and if the situation is right they just might surface. But you gotta admit that we are amazing little creatures…well stocked with amazing stories, adventures, encounters and facts…little store-houses full of endless tidbits just waiting too surface.

About 6 months ago one of those tidbits surfaced.  I was in Walmart’s toy department, looking for something for my grandson…when I noticed the ‘hula hoops’. As a child me and my crew was always into something…skating, cycling, scooters etc.,etc.,etc.. Our folks were always about, on the porches, talking too neighbors so we were always outside.  You have heard the saying ‘it takes a village to raise a child’ well we had that village.  Anyway, we did have TV, but TV couldn’t TOP our adventures.

And then came the hula hoop…you know I can’t remember any of my schoolmates or playmates being over weight in those earlier years. During my teen years, I did  know a few that were stocky but most were quite lean.  So getting back to this story, something occurred too me. Since I made the decision too work from home…days have gone by that I haven’t ventured outside, not even to get a quart of milk. I really haven’t been getting any exercise at all. A light bulb ‘came on’ and the next thing I knew, I was standing in line with that ‘hula hoop’ in tow.

You know, I had forgotten the heart pumping, heart pounding effect hula hooping can produce. And I read an article and the lady who wrote it ‘remarked on the smiling ’side effects’ of hooping. I am wondering if tightening of the abs will be a ’side benefit’ also, we will see.

More to come…

I’m a browsaholic, there I’ve said it, and I mean it…So, what I’ve decided too do is instead of storing all of those websites that I love under a bookmark and filing them away…subsequently forgetting about them, I have decided to go public with all of my favs, and spotlight them here on my blog along with whatever else that I run across that I like.

Not only will I be sharing some of those interesting finds with whomever stops by for a spell, but I have a readily accessible spot that will be much easier for me to access. And for sure, those special little sites and comments and tips will not go unnoticed, overlooked, misplaced and ultimately forgotten. Nope not anymore, because they will be right here.
