Enquiering Minds

To set the record straight my profile status still remains "single". Good news for that 14 year old stalker that haunts this place from time to time, and the answer still is NO if your wondering if I am ever going to talk your mother to see if it is Ok to come to the United States.
I did not find an old boyfriend on Facebook just an old friend who is a boy, he delivered my mothers newspaper for 3 years, on his scooter, and lived kiddie corner from us, and we held hands once after I broke up with his best friend. We have lots of memories together but faded apart after I got married and had to be responsible and devoted, blah, blah, blah.
My Match.com profile is still up but I refuse to pay for it. I get a few winks which is free and only 2 out of 3,976 times my profile has been viewed have the men been wink back worthy. To justify $60 to be winked at by men that are old enough to hang with my Dad is not worth it to me, I would rather sit at the local tavern and spend $10 for a couple beers and get the same effect. I guess what I am trying to say is I really haven't put myself out there long enough to resort to the measures of the Internet.
Thank you "A" for throwing out that bone and giving everyone a little something to nibble at, I think it is funny. I must be looking desperate these days to have such a large cheering section on my dating life. I will say this I have plans two weekends in a row to mingle with other adults and throw myself out there. Who knows this blog might be getting a whole lot more interesting.

Reminder

It has been brought to my attention more than once how desperately you need me to update. Well here I am and there you are hanging on the edge of your seat not knowing if I am ever going to get off the toilet right?? no. Everything is fine and the fiber bars have been put in the back of the cupboard where they will spend the rest of their shelf life unless family comes over and they want a snack.
The calendar has reminded me there is only 10 short weeks until I have to find a new place to dwell because by April 1st I need to be out of my house so that the bank can reclaim their possession. I am taking each day as it comes seizing what lies ahead a new start, a new place, a new beginning, but in the back of my mind dreading the move. It has been eight years since I had to pack up my stuff and relocate to this home I thought would be my final resting place. Funny how life as I planned doesn't seem to be my plan after all, and I am ok with it. Most of my time has been spent searching the Internet for a more reasonable place to live with enough room to fit my girl, my sister and myself. I know I don't have alot of "stuff" but I do have big "stuff" and am looking forward to the cleansing of closets and cupboards to downsize. This move will not be permanent but a stepping stone in the right direction of a peaceful existence I need to move on with Morgan and I as a family together taking on what adventure is next.
In the meantime work has cut hours, I am not working Mondays, and only work 32 hours a week which really hurts the pocket book on Friday. Hopefully this is only temporary for a couple months, I remain optimistic! Not to mention the long 3 day weekend and enjoying Morgan who continues to be my snuggle bug on these cold mornings.
This is where I have been stuck in home hunting purgatory! OH then .......
Not sure if you heard or not there is this thing called Facebook, if you know what is best you will not spend your day updating your status or hoping old boyfriends will call because you will just turn into this Loser who doesn't update her blog.

Increase Fiber........slowly

I had every intention of spending my spare time today giving you my thoughts on resolutions, how I never really like them or have I really never made a resolution. I had pondered a thought here or there perhaps eating healthier, exercising more, making more time for myself. Then it occurs to me I am just setting myself up for failure!! Stupid resolutions......I don't want to have to wait in line for a spot on the treadmill this time of year at the gym, nor do I know what me time is anymore between being a mom and work, I am lucky to shave my legs.(and there I just scared off any chance of getting a date THIS year!)
I was at the grocery store the other day, no not yesterday, the day before that, pathetic I know every time we pass a Meijer my daughter yells from the back, I WANT TO GO TO MEIJER!! some days I tell we can't Mommy's broke and she tilts her head and says it's ok tomorrow be better. Sweet isn't she?? Anyway apparently if your not waiting in line at the gym for the treadmill, you can still get fit at the grocery store because they have strategically placed the "healthy" stuff at the front door and are practically shoving nuts and whole grains down your pie hole and have roped off the "snack" food isle something about restocking or cautionary measures for the over sized pallets the put in front of the ho-ho's and twinkies. They even placed coupons next to the high fiber good for you food. Because I did not make a resolution but should really eat healthier, increase my fiber intake and because it is Dark Chocolate with almonds and it has a coupon what harm could a 1.2 oz chewy bar do to help my digestive track anyhow??

Let this be your warning it can do ALOT! Yesterday I did not think much of it but today, today my friends it feels like the regret you get when you ate a handfull of sliders at 2am after an all night beer buzz except I don't remember having that much fun yesterday!!

Don't let the deliciously drizzled bite of scrumptious blend of chocolate fool you, do however pay attention to the small warning on the side of the box in yellow that reads......NEW USERS Increase your fiber intake gradually. (so having one bar two mornings in a row is probably not a good idea), Gastrointestinal discomfort may occur until your body adjusts.

Or you'll look a little like this all evening except without the cute pig tails I am sure.
