A New Low

Okay seriously… As a Woman as an American I am getting just too pissed about my simple privacy taken away. I today just learned about this. Now maybe it’s been out for a bit and I don’t considerer myself sheltered but I don’t watch the news much anymore. It seems to me that just about everything the report is sad, angry and devastating. A true showing of our national decline and our fractured society. This is NOT a X Ray it's a full body scan and you can eaisily see well, every thing.....

I don’t watch because I am burring my head in the sand I don’t watch because I try to have the few moments of blissful not knowing. Or being in denial for the moment. LoL

I cannot ignore this. This is just lame and not okay with me. No matter what it’s coming. It’s happening because our “Government” says so and gives ---> their <--- two thumbs up. I’m glad they can make such a decision to step in and show their goods to the world.

It won’t stop it though. It won’t end this madness of people putting bombs who knows where and trying to hurt others with them. This is the crazy world we live in. Now it’s sunk to a new low. Our Mothers Fathers Grandmothers Grandfathers and Children are going to be paraded in front of these things to detect a “threat”.

The real issue is that some way somehow this too will fail. These maniacs will find another way. What is it next??? What other way do we get molested to be safe????

One very short year ago Today….

The day is January 10th 2009 John and I at this time we had just finally left for dinner.

On this night we headed out for our 4th year anniversary celebration. It was two days till Nathaniel’s big surgery and we both needed some relaxing together time. Time to emotionally escape and regroup. It had been a long time since we were just us.

This night was blown away we thought by my Sister and her boyfriend being late to rescue us from our sweet boys for the night. We had lost our reservations at our restaurant. We were stressed, and trying to salvage the night by any means. It was, by a land slide. We had a great dinner, drinks and laughs. Forgetting our stresses and worries we relaxed and enjoyed our rare alone time. That night arriving home from a fantastic dinner we celebrated some more *wink wink* not knowing at the time that I had just received the best surprise anniversary gift possible. A gift not known yet not expected but very welcomed. This is the anniversary of Christian. Today one year ago our last and final sweet heart was conceived. I look at him now and am just in awe of him. How different our lives are with him, how wonderful it is. What a gift. 

Happy LATE New Year!!!

The decorations are gone the sales are over. Wow 2010 has already been a whirl wind!! I am glad to finally have things sorta back to normal though. Since then I have in full effect started my journey to a smaller more fit me. Yep I’m on a diet.
I started a few things to get this on the go. I’ve began writing down my food. Upped my intake of the good old H2O and made my pledge to The Biggest Loser!! http://www.pfpchallenge.com/ You can do this too if interested. I like it because really it’s like killing two birds with one stone. Sorry for the expression :o).

I hope by doing this I will run out of excesses to derail myself. Mostly it seemed to be the never ending Holiday parties, get togethers and DESERTS!!!!! It never seemed to stop. But we are away from those holidays now and moving on to the next Valentine’s Day… great…. Yet another holiday with junk food and candy. Can’t a girl catch a break!!? lol
Any who, looking forward to what this year unfolds! It will be a great one, I can feel it.
