back to normal

Well - I went from feeling kinda cruddy last week but not horrible to downright awful over the weekend on Sunday afternoon. Seriously in an hour time frame I went from laughing and great to pitiful and puny. It was WEIRD! I was the same all Monday and finally by yesterday I was getting a bit back to normal. Yuck! I hate being sick! I think I was the last to get it out of everyone I see regularly so I'm glad to have it over with.

Most of these pictures are from the end of last week before the "sickness". I took the kids out to the duck park and they had a ball. We went over to the play area behind it and were TOTAL big kids. No little play gym for us! Made me nervous actually - I usually just go with the flow...not much you can do with 2 going different directions but this was an actual "big kid" jungle gym and I got a twang of fear go through me as they got to the top. The "I can't get to them fast enough" feeling. LOL! I have to remember they're NOT babies anymore. They're my big kids about to be 3.

She's such a cutie pie!

He would feed the ducks....but way back by me...Raina is NO FEAR!

We're big kids Mom....

Brody LOVES the swings...Raina always wants out. So funny the differences.

Awww....my sweet kiddos

After church on Sunday we went to Mom's for the first time in a month. I don't think I've ever gone that long not going to Mom's. But between our Abilene trip for Ches, my gallbladder and them being sick for 2 weekends straight....it was time to go see them :)

Raina REALLY didn't want to take a picture. This was the best we got.

Mom ALWAYS has new things in the toy box each time we go

So this week has been getting better and that's about it. The most strenuous activity has been me getting on the Fit and getting about an hour in each day. I usually alternate between the Yoga and Aerobic. With all the nasty weather today we decided to stay inside in our PJ's. I hardly ever let them go past 10:00 but today seemed like the day to be bums. So we played dress up, we watched Pinnochio....we had a good day :)

My little Dinosaur :)

Dress up is her favorite thing

Glad to hear you're feeling better. I cannot believe they will be 3 soon! I remember when you found out you were preggers, and then that you were having two...omgosh it seems like yesterday.

Goals for 2020

So after thinking through this for a while, I've decided to bring this back into my life.  I love to write, I love to express myself and share recipes.  SO...this blog may not always look pretty...it might get messy, because that's life, and I'm too old to pretend it's not.   Goals for 2020: To continue to search for what feeds my soul and not harms it. I'm going to keep up with my health goals and make it another year of weight maintenance.  Walking starts again.  Not about needing to lose, I like everything a bit tighter.  So there you go.  I'm not athletic, I do not LIKE working out.  But I do like walking because of the moment to take a breath and enjoy being outside and listening to good music 💓 I wanted to commit to living my truth...if I say be kind...that means I have to drop some guards and also do just that.  There's been a couple relationships over the years that I wanted to circle back to this year.  Both hav...

Jayme’s Award Winning 😉 Salsa 2lbs Tomatillo, husked and washed and halved 2 Jalapeño, washed, halved, seeded if you’re a wuss.  1 Serrano, washed, remove stem 1 red onion, quartered 1 Lg Tomato 1 Bunch Cilantro 2 Tbs minced garlic  Salt  On a large baking sheet lay out your tomatillos, peppers and onion. Cover the bottom of the pan Chicken stock or water. I also drizzled a little olive oil.  Put in a 350 oven for 75-90 minutes.  Let cool down a bit and throw everything in a food processor.  Holy.

Good.  I like it warm so when I go to get it out of the fridge, I just throw in the microwave for a sec.  SO good!

Perpetual diets and a soul change....

I feel like all my life, I've been on a perpetual diet.  Seriously.  Pretty much every day of my life has been a choice.  Some days/months/years I do great.  Others....not so much. I've never been one of those girls.  You know...the ones that always just pulled it off.  Looks, weight, clothes.  Nope.  That is not me.  I've also always had skinny friends.  They ate the same things as me...but I'd notice on me and never on them.  I think I've always aspired in some way to be each of them.  Hell, maybe they keep me in check so I don't ever let myself go to much?  That's some deep thinking stuff! What a funny life.  Then, I had my jaw surgery.  Long recovery.  Long, hard, painful recovery.  I think I just gave myself a pass for the last couple of years.  Because I can tell you...I hadn't been too worried about my weight since then. So.  I had a picture taken of me on August 17th.  As ...
