If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feedI tried, Teresa, I really did. But you kept on trying to kill me. I had to put you away, for now. When I am more fit I’ll get you out again and give you another opportunity to help me. For now I’m [...]

This is not good!
The kids were in the library folding laundry, I was in the boys room folding laundry, Blaze was napping on a cushion in the family room and Maggie was enjoying fresh air and sunshine outside on the tie out. Or so we thought! Caleb says to me, “Ma, Maggie isn’t on the tie out.” <insert [...]
Fit as a Farmhand 2-2-10
This post is linked to Works for me Wednesday and Things I Love Thursday because this diet works! I have never been so excited to get on the scale as I am these days. Now I can’t wait for Monday mornings to roll around. Atkins diet is kinda difficult since I am only supposed to [...]
Fit as a Farmhand – Jan. 18, 2010
I’m a little more excited about my diet today than I was last week. It helps when there are results! Weight Loss I actually lost a pound this week! I understand that it is better in the long run to go at a moderate pace. I’ll try to get on board with that plan! [...]
Coming Attractions!
Momma Bug is so right! I have no idea how to accomplish a good bloggity break. So, apparently, a break of less than a week is all that is called for every few weeks. I’ve been blogging in my head on a daily basis. I figured I better put some of it in print before [...]
Manly Men

It’s not written from a Christian perspective, but it is a wholesome, family oriented work. Today we enjoyed reading a post about physical exercise, specifically push-ups. Boys need encouragement from other men and [...]

I guess it’s been a while since I said much about the weight-loss/fitness plan. Let me start off by saying THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS INSTANT GRATIFICATION where weight-loss is concerned. Fitness is almost the same. Sorry for all the shouting, but it took me about 10 years to pack all this weight on [...]
Two, Two, Two Posts in One
Why, yes, I do have cows on my skirt. My New Shoes I actually got them about 2 weeks ago. My hubs insisted that good tenny-shoes would make my knees and hips feel better. He says I’m not as young as I used to be and I need better shoes. He even used the [...]
Gardening with Slim
My littlest Cowboy, Slim, is an enthusiastic gardener. He loves his plot of straight-neck squash. Today he found a bee down in one of his squash flowers, doin’ the job God gave him to do for our squash plants. This cracks me up, see the green air-soft BB? I just think it’s really cool [...]
Adios, Azúcar
Sigh. I am not going to try to convince you to give up sugar. I just wanted to explain what I am doing, and a little of the reason for it. I am overweight, and that is an understatement. I really don’t want this to continue. So, as with all habits, the time finally came [...]
