My Inspiration~

So I commend the enjoyment of life, because nothing is better for a man under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Then joy will accompany him in his work all the days of the life God has given him under the sun. Ecclesiasties 8:15

Basketball Groupie

You remember when you were in highschool? Pre-pubescent girls flocked to basketball games to see their hottie highschool hunks hooping it up on the court. Young, virle teenage boys and their scrawny legs and arms shooting that orange ball for 2-3 points.



Girls screaming for their team and their favorite players...



which of course were hotties.




Being annoyed at the cheerleaders (if they wern't one) for their stupid halftime routines, because well... the basketball players noticed them in their short skirts. They probably didn't know the difference between a layup or a free throw.... Stupid cheerleaders anyway. (wait.. I was one of them. Oops.) Anyway.




I've realized... not much as changed in my life... except my young virle teenage boy that I probably would have cheered for in highschool, is now a grown man of almost 30 and is still playing the game..




I sit on the sidelines, cheering for my man. Muscled arms and legs shooting that orange ball for 2-3 points.



I've realized... that even though we don't win as often as we'd like (what? Sounds like highschool)



that it is so much more fun... when you actually get to go home with that muscled basketball player,



instead of dreaming unknown dreams about a scrawny highschool player.




God is great, basketball is good... my life is crazy.

So here's what's new with me....








I decided after my soap box speech about actually losing weigh this year... I needed to do something about it. I joined this with my husband.


I went 3 miles on the Elliptical on Monday... 2 miles and weights yesterday.

I guess it's better than my regular workout. :D

Newest Aquirements

I ended up going out today... all by my lonesome.

YES!!!

I hit Mall of America first and priced out my "Christmas Present" from my husband. I'm really okay with this as I'm getting a new set of pots and pans. :D Bonus!


Next I went to Le Gourmet Chef and picked up the dutch oven I've been wanting. I thought I wanted Le Creuset really bad, but after I saw this I couldn't get it out of my head.


Off I then strolled to Old Navy to get a handful of things from their clearance section... and a fun pair of "Go-Ga" Pants they're advertising right now for 12 bucks. Fun stuff...


Then I had to suck it up and go to Wal-Mart for groceries... now my sabbatical is over, but at least I got fun stuff. :D
