Good morning everyone. I was looking at my list of favorites today; right under "the perfect apple pie" is "the perfect butt". Sometimes I think I send myself a lot of mixed messages ;)


And I won. I did. Because I could. It was like my eyes were open for the first time and I knew that it all began in me. With giving myself permission to be as strong as I know all women are deep down inside.

It's easy to slip back down into fear. To stop yourself from doing things because you're scared you will fail, but part of giving yourself permission to try is also giving yourself permission to fail... AND to succeed.


The lines above are from a woman who finally

Patty, you so crack me up. I just read your response post to Deb's about all of "we" being over 40. Someday, you'll be there, too! lol


I'm actually feeling better today. Starting to get my sh*t together, I think. Which really is my slogan for 2008. I had a really, really dark pit wallowing experience for a couple of weeks, but I think I can see the light...praying it IS the Light!


No workout today. Back at it tomorow. The back is feeling better. Takes longer to get over these things when you are pushing 40 like "us"!


Hope to catch up with y'all this weekend...when I'm not painting trim. Yay!

Rhonda sorry about that cold/cough, maybe you need to head to the doctor too! Hope you have a good day with your dad, he is so lucky to have you. Saying prayers for your little Andie. Both from her fall yesterday and her upcoming proceedure. Years ago when Katie was about 4 she fell down the basement steps (about 6) but concrete and she loosened her front teeth. Plus she cut her mouth open and bit her tongue really bad. I was scared to death. We took her to a pediatric dentist thank goodness she got better.

So I guess that's a form of accepting failure...in a weird way.
