Weekend Adventure
I am not going to say I did not eat when I was a little stressed because I did a little, but it was all in portions and I really feel pretty fine. Amazing actually. No thinking of any foods as not so good and I really enjoyed everything-food and non-food things. The stress I should say came from a strange and interesting source (not family) when David and I got a little off track around some park and very much ended up where we should not have been! Well we were getting some strange looks as we drove down this very wide walking path…. ahhh…. It was CRAZY and my heart was just a racing, but thank the heavens for revealing a much needed escape route…hehe. My stepfather had left money for sundaes from DQ because he was out working the majority of our visit, but we resisted that. Actually at the time I felt ill…lol It just did not appeal. However when we were at home eventually, I suggested sundaes and so we made little ones. I felt so famished once we got back and I was able to sit. It was insane and I got some much desired, adventure? I never knew this place existed when I lived here, well not really. So anyways, all through out my sleep that night I would wake myself up giggling at where geocaching had taken us. I WAS NOT LAUGHING as we experienced everything…HA. After it was funny. *big smiles*
I am most proud of my Mom who has lost I do not know how much weight, but she is looking so much better since being diagnosed with high cholesterol and adjusting her diet. Her numbers have been cut in half and she is so much littler. She seems to have more energy and is degrees happier. I am so proud of her. And I just decided at this moment that I am going to send her a card, like I would send a buddy a booster. My Mom has not joined the computer age….hehe. So a good old fashion card will be a nice surprise and motivator for her I think.
I also discovered this really neat meditation spot near a church that I did not know existed (it was made a year after I left). It was this cool labyrinth that I can not wait to walk through completely. I really did not have the time then, but for the first time I am looking forward to going back. Everything just seemed so incredibly positive. Twas terrific! *smiles* And it was another goecache near by that took us to this location. Who knew!?!
Must study now but I will read blogs tomorrow night as tonight we are getting a new toilet and sink.
Love you all and wish you a great day and week! 
sounds like a wonderful trip - adventure included and wonderful meaning also wonder-filled. i love to hear how proud you are of your mom, that’s just really moving me. you sound good, too, grounded even in the midst of it all. checking in with yourself is so nice.
So happy you enjoyed your trip…the meditation spot sounds wonderful…my mom hasn’t and never will join the computer age either…have a wonderful week..remember to eat mindfully, healthfully, honor your hunger and ENJOY LIFE!!
Darn, just posted a longgggggggggg comment and it disappeared into BuddySlim space
I’ll try again!!! Sounds like you and David had a wonderful weekend. Sorry about the scary drive, I’d be losing it too. Just glad you got out safe.
High fives for you mom!!! She took control and found the determination to take the healthy route, just like her wonderful daughter
Have a great day my dear friend Jennifer!!!
Hugs, Jane
Wow! Sounds like a splendid weekend Jennifer. Grinning here for your Mom, and I think a nice card in the mail would be lovely. With this electronic age, it seems that cards and letters my postal mail is a dying art. *sighs*. I’m sure she would love it.
And YOU missy! Just look at your adventurous self… getting into danger… giggling about it all. I LOVE IT!
Now is your vehicle in one piece, or did Oscar tear it up? LOL
Hugggggggggggggggggggggs,
Shan
Great to read about your adventure and that the little “stress ooops” did not cause any prolonged problems. You’re doing great Jenn…hope your mom likes the card….
Wait a minute…what happened with the comment I just sent you? Argh! I really hate these Buddyslim bugs!!
Ok…basically what I had said was that you should send your mom a card. She would be happy to know you are proud of her and that you recognize her hard work and sacrifices!!
I also said I am glad you and David made it home safe and sound from your adventure!
Wow! I have got to start geocaching!!! Sounds like sooo much fun. Way to go on a great weekend!
Love you!!!
