Desiderata - by Max Ehrmann (One of my favorite poems) Here are just two verses:
Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. |

Three quotes
“Tell me to what you pay attention and I will tell you who you are”
Jose_Ortega_y Gasset
“As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do.”
Andrew Carnegie
“We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining- they just shine.”
Dwight L. Moody |

The ultimate reason for setting goals is to entice you to become the person it takes to achieve them. —Jim Rohn
Having set a strong goal last winter of 15 lbs to lose, I am happy to say I have reached that goal! Now have to find the perfect Mother-of-the-bride dress:
Dress shopping here I come... Yay!!

OR
IF AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED - PUT EVERYTHING BACK IN THE BOX, PUT THE TOOLS AWAY AND PRETEND YOU NEVER HAD TIME TO EVEN LOOK AT IT.
I HAVE NO IDEA WHO SAID THAT BUT IT ALWAYS SOUNDED GOOD TO ME
HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT DAY

Thank You, ConnieLea!
The thought of showing a bigger backside than I wanted in front of a crowd of 250 people
was a strong motivator...
Now finding the perfect dark plum (a.k.a. dark purple) dress is my next task...
Hopefully the perfect dress reaches out and grabs me real soon!
Thanks again! El Cee

Dear God,
My prayer for 2011 is for a fat bank account & a thin body.
Please don't mix these up like you did last year.
AMEN!
