Healthy Reflection on Monday
Because Sunday I just couldn’t, and I really need it today – something healthy to reflect upon that is – how about you? When eating a fruit, think of the person who planted the tree. - Vietnamese saying Expressing everyday gratitude How often do you remember the people that have made little things possible for you? It’s easy to take our privileges for granted. Today, be more aware of your surroundings–everything from your shirt, house, food, and car–and who has made them possible for you. Who has made it possible for you

Sleep Sweet
Or like the dead, your choice. Me, myself, and I, sleep in sweet peace AND like the dead. True story. I’ve known about my – shall we call it? – sleeping ability. Yeah, that’s it, for a while now. Notice I did not call it a disability. To me it’s not. I go to sleep. I sleep like the dead. I wake up, go to work, or whatever. No insomnia, never had it.

The Cheshire Kid
Jason had the kids this weekend, but I didn’t get to see them until Sunday. We get back from Church, then they arrive from Church with their Grandma (Jason’s Mom) and proceed to attack Jason.

Sydney was at home, she wasn’t able to go to Church, since she went to her boyfriends races the night before, and they e

Sunday’s Healthy Reflection
On Sunday this time, yay! Stop living life for what’s around the corner and start enjoying the walk down the street. - Grant L. Miller, motivational guru Enjoying the road to accomplishment It’s possible to be a little too focused. With blinders on, it becomes easy to completely live in our vision of where we will be in the future, while ignoring the improvements that we have made in the present. The road to a healthy lifestyle is a long trip. While it’s very important to realize what we are shooting for, we also need to make sure that we keep our heads in the
