Healthy Bee

I love you Manolo!

For almost three years of my life I would eat right, exercise religiously, and run three miles a day. This kept me tone and healthy, but for the last few years it has not been that easy. I when back to school and for the last two years I have been putting off my healthy life style. I was only making it worse by taking that time to drink heavily and smoke.

Now my body is paying for it.

A few weeks back my wonderful husband and I decided that it would be in our best interest to start to taking care of our bodies for the future of our (future) children.
We agreed that we would get up in the morning and go for a walk. After not doing anything, a walk is a great place to start. A day or two passed and we are already falling off the wagon.

But not today I tell you!

I will be good and get up and go for that walk.
So I am trying to wake my husband up but he scowled at me and I think he even tried to bite me when I woke him, something about a bad night sleep.
At any rate, I get up and dresses and put my shoes on and by then he was doing his zombie walk through the house with a disgusted sleepy look on his face, so I tell him, “I will be fine, go back to bed if it is that bad.”

Here is where it gets good.

When I leave the house Poncho came in from the porch and Easter when out, and I closed the door bidding my love 15 minutes of sleep.

I start my walk down the street passing other people walking their dogs and such, doing my “Good Morning” wave.

About half way through my walk I decide that I am going to try a little run today. My brain agrees that this is a good idea and this will give me the right to barge to my husband what a great walk he missed.

I get to the end of the park and start to run. I run to the stop sign at the church. This is about ¼ of a mile distance. Not even a 10 min run.

By the time I get there I begin to feel the mistake I have made.
My heart is pounding so hard it is knocking me off balance.
Sweat pours from my armpits like a fire hose.
My hair has fallen and as I try to fix it I almost fall down from being dizzy.
But I can still pull off a “Good Morning” to a passer by.

Upon my return to the house I tell Manolo what a great walk it was and how I ran a little.

His bark was, “That’s great but, I didn’t get to go back to sleep because after you left, Poncho meowed the hole time and danced on the bed so, I had to feed him and didn’t get any more sleep.”

Good Boy Poncho!

Ok this guy was rolling around on the floor in a local retail store.

Now I am not sure if I should be emberrased for him or envious of his ability to be himself
where ever he may be.

Reatil store?

Yoga class?

You be the judge.

Today I am feeling very quiet.
I lay in bed for many hours today just looking at the tv.
It was nice.
For the frist time in I don't know how long I just sat.

No homework
No work
No shoping
No talking

Just breathing and sleeping and eating.

Toady is a good day.

People

I listen to a lot of people telling me about their problems. Mostly about the shallow characteristics of how their “friends” treat each other. I can’t help but think about how lucky I am to be with my husband and have such great friends. People I can really trust.
But I have been thinking lately about how I need to trust people more and make friends, and be more social.
I can’t stop thinking about how if I do that, then I will be letting people into my life who have no real concern for my well being.
Do I really want that?
Should I open that imaginary door that I slammed shut and put some extra locks on to keep out the self destroy people?
I don’t think I am ready for that.
I think I am better off being a part of a silent none evasive friendship through bloging. That way I can speak when I want and no one will be looking to take my mojo from me, or tear me from my world with great consequence.

My own fashion statement

hehehehehe
This is what I wear at work when it rains.

The office I work in has three suites and none of them are connected with any cover, so when it rains you become traped in the office you are sitting in.
A...HA
But not me
I am free
I have escaped the cluches of my desk.

Some sound words from Fro

People are always telling me that i know just what to say to make them feel better, then when i'm faced with a similar situation, i feel like digging a hole in the corner of my house, and crawling in. (just forward my mail to the hole in the corner)
so, here is a little technique that might work next time you're in need of some good advice...


next time you give some good advice, write it down, keep a journal ....then when its your turn, hand that journal over to a good friend and have them read it to you!! then it'll be your own advice, but it won't be coming from you---its much easier to take the advice if its coming from someone else!!!

another way this advice giving might work is if you look in the mirror and pretend you're talking to someone else! of course this is to be used as a last resort, and only if you're already in the habit of talking to your self...which i am....ironically this does not work for me.

i hope i was able to help those of you who are great at giving advice, but are unable to take your own.
unfortunately, this technique thingy that i've come up with won't work for me, cause i came up with it!!!
so, feel free to write me if you have any questions!

my address is
fro @ the hole in the corner
thank you
have a great day!

Moss

I am having a hard time concentrating today. I just keep staring out my window looking at the tree outside. I am imagining myself as a squirrel zipping around the tree. Up and down the curved branches. I am moving so fast that the moss hanging down swings as I fly by it. I then stop at the end of a branch that overlooks the opening to the Gulf of Mexico. It’s not close enough today.
Looking down the limbs of the tree, back at myself sitting in my chair starring at the computer I feel sorry for me. I am a slave to the machine.
Viva Mexico

More to come!
