at work can only be a blessing from God.

At work today I found myself  stuck in a situation, that was intended to make

me beleive that I was “Bossy” towards some of my co-workers.

I was blown away!!!!!

….evidently my gift of being outspoken has been misunderstood in the work

place…..

After a group meeting between all parties to discuss the issues at hand and

many a tears that flowed from MY eyes…(did I mention Im a cry baby)

The situation was resolved….atleast I beleive so…I shall find out when I get

back to work later this week. I just need to learn to keep my mouth shut

more, I guess.

So…..I came  home to a very loving male who jumped all over me and

covered me with tons of wet kisses!

lol….did I mention he jumped in the car when I opened the door he jumped

on my lap…

If  he would have smelt a little better I would have carried him inside but

inside I made him jump down….

Bandit…my little mutt is truly a sight for sore eyes on a day like this!

Me and Bandit came inside and popped open a bottle of  red wine and began

cooking.

My girl friend cam over to  discusss  her visit to the doctor again….. for a

problem she has been facing…..

She is been diagnosed with a condition that is called  Vulvodynia. Not a good

situation and she  is trying to have a baby…..

After we talked awhile she had to go and I was just  about finished with

dinner, when cowboy calls me and ask if  I would like to go ride with him in

the fields….

We haven’t been seeing much of each other lately….Farming season has

begun!

So, I packed  up a little  picnic basket and headed out in the dark….

Sitting on the side of my cowboy, with a wineglass in hand, Bandit under my

 feet, staring at the moon lit sky….

Made the  day events just wash away….

Make the  most out of  your day, think positive and keep  busy! and

 Remember everything is better with a little bit of wine!

…………….I glance down beside me and realize that I’ve brought my wine glass with me…

……………for this little ride to the lil country market down the gravel road

…..I started to feel guilty about accidentally bringing the glass…. when suddenly I was overcome with this grin….

……..I realized at that moment, staring down at the red wine in the glass…. how wine is such a

…………………good friend to me….even if its 105 degrees outside….and Im sure its close to it…its

…………….still so good to me…..

…….when Im all by myself…. wine will just help me escape the grief of the work day and just settle me down…

……………….Red Red Wine is good for all the souls that need a winding down…..just a few sips,

the warm red liquid feels so warm  in your chest….

…and you realize that you are bout to take some deep breaths….

……..and turn up some  good  beautiful music….and just turn around an go back home…..

……………mmmm mmmm  red red wine just let it ease on down and may it rest your weary soul…..

hugs and kisses

Hey Ya’ll, here is my take on the show Im so addicted to.

…..I do not intend to be a blogging queen for Big Brother 12, however I may post from time to time my crazy thoughts about the show….

So….my first thoughts about Sundays nights show…and this Saboteur Game they are now playing.

…First I hear Lebron James announce on ESPN that he is the Saboteur for BB12..

…………………I actually never even heard of that word until Julie announced it on the opening

night…

………………I wondered…if the house guest really knew what that word meant?!

So…

……Uh….Kathy, confuses me…if she is really in the police force, why did it look like she

suffered the most phycially in the caramel…she made it obvious that she wasnt even trying…

…That sure don’t look like someone who has any physical training to me…

….Then she played the blame game on Britney…who yes was weak in the game but atleast

attempted to move through the thick caramel.

…It appeared that Kathy was trying to place the fault on Britney….

…and then Britney doesn’t face up to Kathy….. but yet  doesn’t hesitate to run behind her

back ….and suggest that Kathy be put up for eviction..sneaky lil ninja (Britney)

I find it very odd that they both have the same southern twang and they both wear Arkansas Razorback clothing…I wouldn’t be surprised if they had some sort of connection.???

Ok, one other character that catches my attention, because he acts so goofy…and he made

himself look like he is the Saboteur…during the lights out thing…..

….Is Andrew…why in the hec is he even on the show…A Podiatrist interest in Big Brother seems odd to me…

……So at this point Kathy has openly admitted that she is not in this game to win the money but to prove that she can do it…

Kathy BB12

…and Andrew looks suspiciously sneaky and I just don’t think he wants to be there, since he is a physician and all, what is really his motivation…

Now one more thing..saying the word motivation..made me think of Enzo…that guy is a

Wild Cat! He’s formed alliances, made them all nick names and seems to taken this Bull by the horns…

We shall see what this week brings…

Meanwhile my addiction to Big Brother is carried in the background noise in my office with the Live Feeds 24/7 and a few bottles of wine stached for those special moments…

love & peace

We may have not had much money, but we had so much love and happiness.

We played outside all the time….riding our bikes…playing hide and seek….playing red rover, red light – green light….and in the summer we wanted to play with the water hose.!!!!

There is something special that happens when children get to play in water outside….even as adults, there is something magically fun that happens when we get to relax in water outside..

I remember one year when it was so hot outside and me and my brothers were splashing around in our little blue plastic pool…ya’ll must know what Im talking about?

…where I live now, they use those little blue pools to feed the animals in the pasture!

Anyways…as we played and were so content, my father decided to play superman and fly into our little blue pool of water! and what a splash he made!

…My parents took us everywhere with them…at least that what I remember…and so I have many memory’s of seafood boils we would attend.

….Back before I could appreciate the delicacy of oysters….there were many dinners I missed of oyster dressing, and oyster gumbos…when I think of oysters…. I think of my mama and grandma!

So…I tell you a  few personal things because…something sad has happened and the children in Louisiana will not have these memory’s this summer.

Looking back at the last 50 Something days….since the horrible BP Explosion I’d like to ask you to pause and reflect at the first victims of the accident….

…..For the Eleven men that died that day

…for their children, wives, girlfriends, mothers, fathers, sisters brothers, any all family and friends.

…..For the Shrimpers, The Fishermen, The deckhands, The Bait Stands, any and all who’s livelihood depended on these waters to bless their families.

….For the environment…. any and all creatures….. land and water

…..Those are just a few things….

…Our State Bird is the Brown Pelican, will it now be on an endangered species list…
This is a what a Brown Pelican is supposed to look like….

and this is what they look like now.

So….School is out for summer and the children are ready for some summer fun…

In a world where we want our kids to be more active and stay away from television and video games…Well…some parents wont be able to tell their children to go play outside.

Thank you everyone who jumped aboard and really showed us that you care for our children and our futures.

Last week…I attempted to organise a benefit for the families affected by the BP Crisis

….I tried to contact a list of local musicians as well as left a message at Mr. Billy Nungesser office.

Evangleine Downs RaceTrack and Casino was generous in offering us their event room! So..Im just waiting for someone to call me back…..

Im just a small town girl living in a fantasy world, praying that somehow, somewhere all my prayers and thoughts and actions might actually do someone some good.

….Final note…..Appreciate what you have in life….everything is a gift….you may not have it tomorrow…so live for today….if you feel something in your heart tugging at you….that is God, telling you….Just do it! If you think you can make a difference….Im telling you that you can!

Peace & Love

GRAND ISLE BP OIL SPILL

But if I want to wear one of these! I must, I must look at my diet!!

Shhh….dont repeat it…..the word that many fear…

its the word that offends so many….

…its the word that make us suck in our bellys and sink down in their chairs and hide that bag of chips!

Now seriously…this is confession time.

Last year alone, I tried all kinds of different ways to drop weight….

…I tried the Slimfast shake drink, which I do like occasionally.

….I tried the 3 day Diet, which I still encourage many to try!

…..I bought the Flat Belly Diet book and tried that….

…..Went to the Doctors and took prescription strength weight loss suppressants

….All of those diets do work while you are faithful to them but as soon as you eat something else, the weight just comes back on….

So……

…..I was desperate to find a way to look good again!

and then a new year came…..
A new year and a new resolution!

And honestly….its been the best resolution I have ever had….

What works best is the old fashion normal way to be healthy…Simply just exercise and eat right!

So….

1st I joined a Fitness Club and committed to working out 5 days a week….

and along with that commitment, I also made a pact with my self to have confidence in how I dressed again….I was ready to look like a fashionista again and put away the cowgirl boots and blue jeans.

So…here I am 6 months later….and I feel so much better.

I feel so fabulous!

I addicted to exercising and when I cant seem to find the time, I make it happen where ever I am….Ive treated my self to a new outfit each month, to reward myself.

Besides the 5 day a week exercise routine Ive changed a few things about how I eat…smaller portions are a must…no packaged foods…I cook as fresh as possible and eat dinner as early as I can…
Of course the one thing I was told I should do but didn’t is give up my red wine!
But I think my readers already knew that one. Ha ha!

So….I found this cool website that has discount prices on brand named fashions…

I measured my body size and then picked out the bikinis I wanted and was finally able to wear one of them for the first time…confidently! Last weekend!

So if your looking to lose weight, have more energy, gain more strength, get rid of that

chunky cottage crap on your buttocks…the only way your gonna make it happen is to get up

and move!

Start out small and work your exercise time up each day…minute by minute…You will feel so much happier. Good Luck

Have wonderful wine day! xxoo
