HoLIday .... darlin' D home with me!!

okay ... not often darlin' D has a holiday; yay! today was one of them.  Off to breakfast ... a bit of running here and there ... shopped for a dress (found one!) .... and a day with my man!!
Remember that my "word of the year" for 2011 is weLLneSS ...and what a journey it's been ~ psst ... it's the 52nd day of the year!!  I have NEVER been so motivated, disciplined, and to more doctors in 52 days!! There is a checkoff list when you turn 50!! Soooooo I am taking time with the many items on the list!! Now add MIL for me ~ yep! I will be a MIL in March! Addiding Tosha Thomson to our beloved READER clan. And... never ever thought I get to 'help' with the wedding plans, I must say I am blessed to be apart of it all!!
I have been taught 'SHAPE' several times in my life ~~ especially in Lesotho, SA .. and it popped back up ...so with that in my mind, body, heart & soul, I am working on my "SHAPE"...both physically and spiritually and they are both tough areas to conquer. Basically, they will never be conquered..a definite work in progress...but key word is PROGRESS...and that I am making, I did try on smaller sizes today ~ but not as small as I had wanted ... another day to move forward!

Now, let me admit, changing my diet was not a big change for me because I  have been following WW since July 9th, 2010.  Kinda stuck as of December ... but motivated to head toward WELLNESS and continue on this journey. Happy to say, investigating some things to 'jump start' to loss again.

Back to SHAPE...on the spiritual side of things..and PLEASE do not let this part frustrate you or make you want to click over to another blog..because like I have always said..IT IS NOT ABOUT RELIGION, but about 'doing LIFE together' and relationships!! ...you can apply what I am saying to everyday life!!
Shape stands for
Spiritual Gifts....
Heart.....
Abilities...
Personality...
Experience!
and it is what you do with your shape that not only matters...but makes a huge difference in your life and the life of others!  Go ahead and get M.A.D. ~ Make A Difference!!! daily even. For one candle (your light) may light a thousand ...

Heart = interests, passions & desires  ~ what do you like? dislike? what would you do for FREE? what motivates you, excites you???
"As a face is reflected in water, so the HEART reflects the person" Prov. 27:19

Keep me in your prayers ~ for wisdom, decisions, and traveling to here & there and everywhere in March!

I like the Shape and MAD... we are called to make a difference. It starts with a ripple, who knows where it goes from there. Keep planting seeds, God will create a forest with just one seed
Have a great day!
