Food 4 Thought

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

Breakfast
What is the last movie you saw and how did you like it? That would be Sister's Keeper............It was a tear you heart out movie!! Most people want to hate the mom...........yet as a mother I soooooooo related to her. As mothers we put so much of ourselves into saving our children!!! We know we can't, we know that they need to make choices to learn and to grow but life can be painful, and we so want to protect our children from hurt and pain. It is a movie that helps you appreciate life and most of all those we love!!

Lunch
What is your favorite ice cream flavor? I know this sounds crazy but give me vanilla any day of the week! A vanilla ice cream cone really hits the spot on a sunny summer day!
Dinner
What is one goal you want to achieve this summer? I really want to pass my college placement test in Math and English!! If I don't I will need to take another set of classes to brush up on Math!! I have been studying all week!!!! HELP fractions!! After 20 years of no math classes it is like going to the bottom of the well and usually coming up empty!! I have been reviewing my times tables like I used to do with my 2nd graders!! Add me to your prayers!! I have one more week to STUDY!!

Midnight Snack
What do you do to pamper yourself? Lately I have been indulging in setting in the infra red sauna at DAY spa!! I know it sounds like a crazy thing to do in the summer but I love the way it makes me feel and it is really helping the healing process in my bum leg........once a month I indulge in a massage with the sauna!!

Recipe of the Week (instead of your recipe for life, what is it just for this week?)
“ We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,[1] promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America. ”

Happy fourth of July!


What is your favorite way to CELEBRATE our countries birthday????

I always get a lump in my throat as I attend our little town's patriotic ceremony. We have a huge variety program that is both fun and heart felt as we feel the spirit of being an AMERICAN!

It is fun to participate in the Breakfast and activities in the park and of course the fireworks at night! Living in a small country town in the USA is the best way to feel the spirit of our great nation!!

I was remembering the other day as I heard the Preamble to the Constitution how I came to memorize this great text. Do you remember school house rock?? Saturday morning cartoons??? Well here is a fun reminder or a great way to learn the preamble!!

I will post a recap of our day soon after!!

Happy Fourth of JULY!!

I know that he knows me personally and helps me accomplish many things. I am a person with talents and abilities! I love this message may it inspire you today!!

Breakfast

What is your favorite part of the summertime? My favorite part of summer is lemonade, sunshine, star gazing, setting on the deck in the cool of the evening, bike riding, summer salads, flower gardens, fresh fruit and veggies, sandy beaches, warm water, mowing the lawn, concerts in the mountains, the laughter of our friends and family as we play a late night game, roasting marshmallows, fireworks, crickets singing me to sleep.....................yes summer is my favorite season!!




Lunch
How was this week different than others? I had my sisters four kids under the age of 6! That is different!!!! And CRAZY!! Alysa has been gone for the past two weeks, so I was the lone women in the home and our home was soooo quiet that was different!! I registered for college!!!!!!!!



Dinner
What did you think of Michael Jackson? His music will always bring me back to high school and the beat will always make me want to get up and dance. We was a truly amazing musician. As a person he was always on the creepy side!!!



Midnight Snack
What do you have planned for this weekend? Craziness as always............Lindsey's kids go to their grandparents home on Sat. My boys planned a hike on Sat. our home is the meeting place as well as the barbecue afterwords............late night I am sure of it!! Alysa gets home on Sat. but she already told me she has a date that night!! Maybe John and I will catch some alone time somewhere in the MIX!!
