Goodnight!
A small blog about our family living in the big city. We manage to keep ourselves busy with school and church. Throw in the occasional event and we are non-stop.

Getting Older and Wider
I have never been thin. I will never be thin.
But, I can be healthier. So in that frame of mind and with the ever self-conscious behind me, I am looking for a program that will motivate me to move. Because, really, I eat healthy. I just don't move, exercise, grove, shake it, whatever you choose to call it, I do not do it.
So I began looking at what is out there to motivate me to move.
Quick Weight Loss Centers just opened in the neighborhood, and I just have this ting about paying someone to tell me what I already know and they do not really look at exercise as a full component of weight loss.
Weight Watchers is there, along with Jenny Craig and many others, but really they are telling me what I know.
What has really appealed to me is the Jillian Micheals' site. She has EXERCISES and it seems as if the information is based on the real world not the Biggest Loser mentality of exercising 4-6 hours a day. The cost is a easy $4 a week billed in quarterly increments.
Many of you have done this weight loss stuff with different providers, your thoughts?

The Amazing...
Minnie!
We all thought she was waiting for Colt to come home, but I guess we were wrong.
She is sill hanging in there. Her tummy is still firm and tender but she is continuing her normal antics. Herding the cats and Kane to do her bidding. She does not seem to be able to tolerate regular dog food. So, I continue to spoil her with boiled chicken and rice. Most days are spent following me around. She would go to work with me if she could.
Both dogs live in the bedroom when I am asleep. I often get feline visitors to my slumber chamber as well.
I had to clip Minnie's nails the other day and it looks like I may need to give her a shave soon as well with the heat. Her fur is just as thick as it ever has been and that along with the black color just heats her up quickly.
I could take Minnie back and get her lab redone but at $250 it is not worth it right now.
So for now, Minnie is still with us and doing well.

Working and Summer
I am lucky. I have a job that has me working in the cooler hours of the heat.
I leave in the humid steamy morning from work and go home to enter a night cooled house and proceed to go to bed.
I have noticed that the rest of my family has picked up my night time tendencies. The kids are staying up way beyond the usual bedtimes. And the man of the house tries to stay up on my nights off to hang with me, but, alas, he fades away in the recliner.
I am definitely sticking to the more than one night off in a row plan. The one night on and one night off was way too taxing on everyone.
I get to sleep through the worst heat of the day.
No more wimpy showers since no one is watering their lawn at 5 pm.
Now I just have to figure out when I should try to get some exercise.
I relented and allowed my two to get Facebook accounts. This has caused some consternation among the parental units. But then one of the parental units is a true enemy to technology. It never makes things easier, just more things to keep track of and manage. Ignorance would be bliss in this situation.
