Pisces
February 19 - March 20
Unfortunately you can't measure love the way you would the stock market, dear Pisces. And it's all right if that scares you a little, because you know that you have to work at something if you want to make it happen in your life. We all need to have the courage to try new things. So, yes you will find love in your life, but as to whom you will 'invest' with and how much you will 'invest,' you won't find out until the big day. Be patient, you won't be disappointed.

So that was my horoscope this morning on myMSN...funny, as I made blog notes last night while I was watching Grey's Anatomy (and weeping). The episode focused on "the best day" and how one doesn't know what their "best day" is until it is here and gone, and those "best days" are those that are ordinary and filled with our favorite people and often just little things. I agree with this...and I'm anxious for more "best days". Funny how when you want one...it never shows up, but when you are least expecting it...there it is!! Even funnier is how my horoscope lines up with this....

After Grey's I tuned into the Michael J. Fox "Always Looking Up" special. He is an amazing individual! I especially liked his shout out to the farmer! I was frightened by Bill Murray's freakishly white-blonde hair. While I was scared of the hair, a man with PD was golfing amazingly well...during this golf game MJF says, "It's not about winning, but about accepting yourself." This was appropriate, but hard to swallow. I LIKE TO WIN! I do need to be more accepting of myself, but I like to win!! So, I'm going to set out to win the races I can!! (Which is obviously not the race to get a job, the race to finish a dissertation, the race to have the cleanest most immaculate house, or the slimmest sleekest gal you know)...damn, I'm severely defeated!

During commercials, I read the new Glamour magazine that came in the mail (and playing with Newt) and I read about budgeting...I did so well from January through March, but I fell off of the wagon and it ran me over sometime in March until now. No Starbucks or pedicures and limit the lunches out. More importantly, I learned that hips are in!! I think that they should have put that on the front cover! Lastly...I read that the #1 most romantic line of all time comes from one of my favorite movies, "When Harry Met Sally". I guess I'm still waiting for the rest of my life to start...but I've got a lot to do in the meantime.

Random Friday thoughts....
  • Brandi hates me, as she has discovered The Pioneer Woman site through this blog...if you haven't stopped in to meet the Pioneer Woman, I encourage you to do so...but make sure you have a block of time and a diet coke because you'll be there for awhile
  • I'm walking for a while tonight in Relay for Life in remembrance of Dr. Edwards
  • I have a recently developed obsession with Crystal Light lemonade
  • I ordered The Bean this week and it has been shipped...stay tuned for results and report of The Bean workout
Have a good weekend!

'80s Ladies

I apologize for my absence, but we'll cover that later. On a recent road trip (day trip), for work, I made a little list in my head, let's see if I can recall the jist of it all. I worked up a list of things that we should all have in our memory books, and on my list, thanks to my iPod, I have the '80s ladies. No, not the great friends from the dorm and I that re-worked the K.T. Oslin's hit from the '80s. That is definitely another story for another time. As I was cruising across the Lone Star State in my Gold Lincoln Town Car on Friday of last week, I spent a lot of time being thankful that it was a solo mission---I did a lot of singing and dancing in that car that day. Some of the favorite stops made by my iPod were on the Ladies of the 80s. Let me just share with you right now that my musical stylings were utterly amazing and a force to be reckoned with, not to mention the moves that accompanied them. Tell me, who doesn't know their way through ...

BLESSINGS

(From somewhere on Pinterest). I found the above "poster" on Pinterest awhile back.  This morning, I don't know if it was the cool morning or the prospect of a good weekend that put pep in my step and a fullness, yet lightness, in my heart, but as the dog licked my had I realized that I have more than plenty to be thankful for, to be grateful for, to treasure.  I am blessed. Not only do I have food in my fridge, clothes on my back, and a warm bed to sleep in at night...my cup over flows with family and friends (although not near) and experiences that I wouldn't trade.  I may never see the castles in Ireland, but I've seen... the St. Louis Arch (even went to the top in the tiny elevator) the Golden Gate bridge (been across it in a 15 passenger rental van, can you say that??) the "Faces" a.k.a. Mt. Rushmore the Alamo both the Atlantic and the Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico (and the North Platte River, but who's counting?)...I've dippe...

Have a Blessed Wednesday

  It's Wednesday! I've been working on left overs from my busy weekend in the kitchen.  Mom sent pics from home yesterday, and I just love this little guy!  Hoping to try a new stuffed portabella 'shroom recipe, maybe this evening.
