Thankful Thursday – Winter Weather
Yes, I know it’s a strange thing to be thankful for but I am! Mostly because I live in Las Vegas where the summer’s are normally 110 + and the nights don’t cool down much at all. So to have these wonderfully cold winters is what makes it bareable during the summer heat. I can just remember how my toes were always cold, even in my nice thick warm boot slippers. I can think about how every time I stepped outside I had to wear gloves. How nice it felt to snuggle up next to my sweetheart at night without sweating! LOL!
NUM NUM!! Low Carb Low Fat Southwest Chicken Soup!
Low Carb, Low Fat Southwest Chicken Soup
I just made this for lunch and WOW is it good! And it was easy to make as well! Which is a must for me to be able to stick to any diet. I’m lazy and I just don’t want to have to go through a ton of steps to make a good meal for my family. Which is why we usually turn to something easier, not so good for us stuff. But this took a total of 30 minutes to make from start to finish!
Wordless Wednesday – Trip To Gilcrease Nature Sanctuary
The Gilcrease Nature Sanctuary was established in 1970 and is a non-profit organization dependent upon the support of the general public for its survival. The Sanctuary offers a safe haven for animals of all types. We are dedicated to the continued public awareness of responsible pet adoption so that our facility will experience zero growth in the future in accepting unwanted pets. Through onsite classes on animal wellness, presentations, and tours of the facility we hope to encourage the thoughtful adoption of pets who will remain with their original owners.
Inspiration Comes From The Strangest Places
So here’s our brand new (new to us) Lincoln Towncar. We bought it the day before New Years Eve! Believe it or not, we don’t owe anything on it either! That’s right, NO car payments!! WOOT! We traded in my cute, sweet, adorable Beetle and paid a few K in cash and we own it outright! That’s a testament to how well our business is doing, because we didn’t sacrifice or really even save for this! No, we still have savings in the bank, money for our business, money for rent, bills and fun on TOP of buying this car!
Thankful Thursday – It’s All About Me
I guess since I didn’t post for two days, that I need to make up for that by posting twice in one day! LOL! This Thankful Thursday is all about me though. I’m thankful for so much in my life, but I have a hard time being thankful for myself. So today I want to be grateful about me!
OWN 2011 With Me and Oprah Winfrey!
OWN: the new Oprah Winfrey Network launched on Jan. 1, 2011. I was lucky enough to also get a sneak peak at one of the new original series they will be showing, called Your OWN show. “Your OWN Show: Oprah’s Search for the Next TV Star” – Series Premiere Friday, January 7th 9/8c. I love reality shows and was pretty excited to get a sneak peak at this one. Especially since I’d been hearing about it all over the internet! LOL! Can’t wait to see the actual show tomorrow night though.
My 2011 To Do List
My 2011 To – Do List
I’m participating in the Bloggy Mom’s Blog Dare Challenge. They give you a new writing prompt everyday. You don’t have to use the prompts, but they are great things to have if you need them. This is today’s prompt. What would you like to accomplish this year? What are the places you would like to visit in 2011? What do you hope to check off your bucket list in 2011?
Happy New Year!!
This year instead of making resolutions, I’m making goals. Every year I’ve made resolutions and end up failing at them. Of course that makes me feel horrible and ends up making things worse, such as gaining weight. LOL! When I make a resolution to lose weight, I fail and gain weight instead. Not productive at all. So this year, instead of making resolutions I’m making goals.
