I am the dark colored Lexus in the photos. I was hit on the passenger side by a driver going around 60. I am so thankful I dodnt have anybof my kids in the passenger seat. That area was smushed in and they would have been crushed. I have a couple of broken ribs and a broken sternum, but all in all I feel good. I was able to still travel the next day. Thank God for His protection and noone was seriously hurt. </p>

I want to buy 4 standard size pillows for the bed and use antique embroidered pillowcases. I have my adult children coming home for Christmas so Im ready and cant wait!</p>

Monday I will start Beta Phase, which kicks it up a notch and adds some upper body work and weights. I still have not lost any weight this week. I have got to dial in my diet as I am not as strict as I need to be. I know that and I am trying not to get discouraged and give up. This is where I usually quit and decide I need to start over so I can do it right and better and perfect. I am trying to break the cycle and continue on. I cannot tell you how happy I am not to see Total Body Circuit again in the next 5 weeks. Happy to have all new workouts. </p>
<p dir="ltr">This coming week is Thanksgiving. We had a Thanksgiving lunch yesterday at my husbands company. I brought butterbeans and deviled eggs. It was all casseroles and desserts so since I am gluten free I couldn't even have most items. I had ham, turkey, butterbeans, broccoli salad, and tea. There was a crust less pie my husband thought was gluten free and he brought a slice for me. I didn't touch it. </p>
<p dir="ltr">We have another lunch after church. I have to bring two sides. I may take the broccoli salad and some southern peas. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I am making ham, Turkey, gluten free southern dressing, peas, fried corn, roasted sweet potatoes, and a cheesecake for Thanksgiving. I'm going to have a cheat day and then freeze stuff like leftover dressing so I don't carry it onto the next week and get off eating right. </p>

I'm actually teetering on none to a 2 lb gain depending on when I step on the scale. I've had a lot of stomach discomfort and seem to be bloated a lot. I don't know what to think, I'm working and so discouraged that I'm not losing more. I will keep going. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Someone local took family pictures on the mountain. The one below is one she took. They were pretty bad. Half are blurry and the others we were all blue. I edited out a lot of the blue, but this photo is still not right. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I am trying to get in photos and not wait until I've lost weight. It is a struggle. I am sad I look like this and feel like I do. It is motivation to keep working towards my goal and get healthy. </p>

I usually make it with vodka, and people said I could use cheap Ever Clear, but I used a name brand Vodka before and it was very good vanilla.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I order vanilla beans from Madagascar off Amazon. If they tell you the grade, you want grade B instead of A. A would be for baking with, B are better for making vanilla and not as expensive. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I read someone say they used rum instead of vodka because it was a little sweeter. So I thought I'd try that this year.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I ordered amber colored bottles off Amazon. They are 4 oz. which is perfect for giving. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I cut each bean in half so they would fit in the bottle. Then sliced through each bean with the edge of the knife. I didn't open or scrape them, just sliced through so the rum can get inside and start mixing. I put two whole beans, or 4 sections after cutting, into each bottle. I use a funnel to fill with the rum. Shake each bottle. Every time you walk by shake them or turn them so the rum will mix with the vanilla and start to infuse. Do this whenever you happen to think of it and have time. </p>
<p dir="ltr">It takes a good 3 to 4 months to really infuse and be ready to use. You can use it earlier, it just will not be as strong a vanilla flavor. </p>

I sat around making every excuse and pprocrastinating and tried to talk myself into doing nothing. I am so sore I can barely sit down and it hurts to walk. I was not wanting to go work those muscles and endure the pain. I ffinally decided to get put of the house and walk. The weather was perfect. I have been doing good a mile, sor I added 3 cul de sacs and did 1. 6 miles. I stretched my sore muscles and feel better to have done something rather than nothing. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am increasing my walk to 1. 6 miles daily now. </div>Southernerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00742517323759698146noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-87548557358270125492016-11-05T11:59:00.001-05:002016-11-05T11:59:22.520-05:00T25 Week 3 Review<p dir="ltr">I am discouraged because this week I didn't lose any weight. I didn't do many of the double workouts I had planned and didn't push as hard. I've really struggled with headaches and not sleeping and have been very off. I need to push through this week! Making new habits and not giving in to excuses is so hard. </p>

Speed works on Cardio with high knee jumps, sprints, hop hop turns with punches, but in between incorporates stretches and stability moves. The goal is to torch calories and improve your core. I love it because it moves quickly. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I didn't get up to walk so I'm going to add a little to my walk later today.

I'm going to do it before supper this afternoon. Your do 30 seconds of each of these moves: mountain climbers, squat jumps, crunches, push-ups, burpees, jump rope, walking lunges, and reverse lunges. I am going to add stepping on the box from my Firm video set. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am about to go do my 15 minutes on the elliptical.

My goal is to walk first thing in the morning, working up to running again. Then after everyone leaves for work and school doing my T25 and elliptical. Later around 4 doing a 2nd workout and then walking right before supper. I don't work and have time and have made excuses for years. I am trying to focus on me and really work at this. I don't always have time for a 2nd workout and don't change life to do it. I just hope to do them when I can and like today be a little flexible and adjust when I can't. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPEU8wRb9taysZZtYp7CAKOfC5ogIWiD3EGPt5RnTKW8ZDlt-TNtVYfwOBCpN7WJZRNbQfziM_8SqygDytLPxFGqhWXcBMnZWWIa3ZqN_DHRkYvuwHU_NzRTi6c1-AnBLI4Kv7_Gsjriw/s1600/20161101_074257.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhPEU8wRb9taysZZtYp7CAKOfC5ogIWiD3EGPt5RnTKW8ZDlt-TNtVYfwOBCpN7WJZRNbQfziM_8SqygDytLPxFGqhWXcBMnZWWIa3ZqN_DHRkYvuwHU_NzRTi6c1-AnBLI4Kv7_Gsjriw/s640/20161101_074257.jpg"></a>I made some sausage and eggs cups and had one and a half for breakfast.

<p dir="ltr">I have my AM chores I do every morning (except Sundays):<br>
Make bed, pick up my bedroom, wipe bath, pick up bath, take clothes to laundry and put in a load, wipe half bath, wipe boys bath, pick up den, kitchen dishes, wipe counters, sweep main areas, spot mop any spots. <br>
I've timed it and this take 30 minutes. If I don't do anything else my house is picked up and presentable for guests.</p>
<p dir="ltr">After my AM chores I break deeper cleaning down by days. These take about an hour except shopping day.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Monday- dust and vacuum house. <br>
I take my duster on a stick and do the ceiling corner, fan, baseboards, blinds, lights, etc in one room. If I concentrate on one room deeper dusting it gets done every 2 months.<br>
Every room gets dusted with a dusting cloth and vacuumed. <br>
I then go back with my steam mop and do all the wood and tile floors. <br>
If the area rugs need washing I wash them. <br>
I wash the master sheets on Monday</p>
<p dir="ltr">Tuesday:<br>
I pay bills, file papers, shred papers, print and cut coupons, plan grocery shopping by sales, and take care of any calls or letters/cards I need to send. <br>
I iron clothes.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Wednesday:<br>
shopping day. I take a cooler and market bags and make a round to stores getting sales. <br>
Clean out refrigerator and gather all trash. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Thursday:<br>
Prep or organization day<br>
I prep food and freeze, can food, or separate meats and other items.<br>
If a cabinet or drawer or area has gotten messy I can organize or deep clean an area. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Friday: <br>
Clean baths. </p>
<p dir="ltr">Saturday: <br>
Yard work and clean car</p>
<p dir="ltr">Every afternoon about an hour before my husband gets home I do a quick pick up, make sure laundry is put away, and start supper. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I don't always get everything done every week, but by spot cleaning daily and breaking it up my house stays pretty clean and people can stop by. </p>
<p dir="ltr">I let the kids clean their room once a week. They wash their sheets.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I try to keep the microwave, oven, and stove clean by doing them as I am cooking or during my morning chore routine. <br></p>

I am building back my endurance so I can start running again in a couple of weeks. As I was walking I decided to run a little and did a couple of minutes. It was just the one time, but I pushed myself a little and look forward to feeling string again. Las the time I could see some much improvement in my lung capacity after one week of wwalking. I am trying to walk morning and night to get used to it. Nown, if the neighbors would turn off their sprinklers that would be great. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">T25 today was Total Body Circuit. I feel the push-ups in my shoulders and right elbow. I do them on my knees and still struggle because I am so out of shape. I don't think I am lined up right, but if I move my arms down I don't have strength to do them. I am watching this and hope to straighten it out as I add some strength. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am adding 15 minutes on the elliptical and an upper body weight set today. I don't work so I am spacing out my workouts and making it a priority to get in shape. I have an elliptical, and our neighborhood has a gym with weights and a treadmill and elliptical. That is so good, bexcuse on rainy days I can go to the gym and get my workouts in. No excuses! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I woke with a in us headache that I dealt with all night. I took excedrine and have to establish or it will upset my stomach. So many times I grab chips but today I got a Kind peanut butter and dark chocolate protein bar. I ate half then had the other half after my walk. It has 200 calories, so debatable whether it is a good choice. I need to go get some vegetables today for omelets and egg cups to make up. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I have fallen out of routine of taking my vitamins. I take a multi vitamin, vitamin D, magnesium, glucosamine, get B12 shots, and sinus meds. My D and B12 levels have been low to on the low side even with taking extra. I need to go sit in the sun 15 minutes a day also. We have been in a drought so all the tree and grass pollen has been horrible this year. I've been getting sinus headaches daily. I didn't sleep well. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We'll, I haven't sleep well in 10 years. I wake at 3:30 every night. I am working on making a structured bedtime routine. At 9 I am going and changing into pajamas, taking off makeup and brushing teeth and then not looking at phone for the rest of the night. I'm trying to go to bed at 10. So far, i haven't done it. I made working on this routine. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I am also working to drink 10 glasses of water a day. I have a Tervis tumbler that is 2. 5 cups. What I do is drink one by 10, one by 12, one by 3, and another by 6. I can tell a big difference after a few days when my body gets hydrated. I pee the first few days as my body eliminates stored fluids. Then I feel better and actually crave water. My body just feels to be running better. I am going to take a photo of my skin. I have milia. It is white bumps on my face that look like pimples without a head. They are actually little cysts that form from excess oils. I have them on my jawbone area in front of my ears. and to the side of my eyes.

I've been doing T25 and I also joined a Diet Bet to help me stay motivated. I lost 9.2 lbs in two weeks.</p>
<p dir="ltr">T25 is a killer. I end drenched in sweat, and I am following the modified version. I am modifying the schedule to workout on Saturdays so I can get through T25 and Body Revolution before Spring Break.</p>
<p dir="ltr">I am adding in walking, some extra weights and elliptical this week. I am serious about getting the weight off and building muscle. I'm going to try to blog more. I've joined two more diet Bets. One started today and the other starts Nov 1. <br><br></p>

This year we went to Nashville. </p>
<p dir="ltr">We drove up and it rained most of the day. So, we took a shuttle to the Gaylord Opryland Hotel. I had never seen the inside. It has a huge indoor atrium filled with beautiful plants. There is a walkway through it all with waterfalls and statues. </p>

My energy was zapped. I then went to help my daughter after birth for 2 weeks. She came back with me for a week. My son totaled my car. My son got run over by a car and had to have surgery to put screws in his ankle. I got a new car. My daughter had gall bladder surgery so I went back for a week. She came back here for two weeks.

My son in the army said it wasnt even a hike just a short climb to the top so we went. When we drove up and saw the trail up I started wondering if it was too much. I have been running and walking a big hill at home to tey to train for hiking. Hahahaha, that was a joke compared to the climb of Koko Head. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5hGXjauUASIQE56qLhd_kSKzDY8ouxUJL-xzZXOluwRD8K7s537LfsUmFTUjGEAQJlcrXEnXh8o9Fb733QxffpMAaVV-AVydqFH8B5T5ZJpaAKbdi8VMkRqaIYgGnXI7b0HOeNUZRq5Y/s1600/20150601_131738.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5hGXjauUASIQE56qLhd_kSKzDY8ouxUJL-xzZXOluwRD8K7s537LfsUmFTUjGEAQJlcrXEnXh8o9Fb733QxffpMAaVV-AVydqFH8B5T5ZJpaAKbdi8VMkRqaIYgGnXI7b0HOeNUZRq5Y/s640/20150601_131738.jpg"> </a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP2kVsD9VHT6Qj6WaFRvo_nxKqhWj8FjFbqYVIpE6JhEFdJhe99NXuT13bXhK7ZXmpDvaugwJ4iO4fzLL3iHSBKfUcCR5-XpZV2NA49hwicyXZYeF78h-sCti4o1XDNxSFLzpmZR6c01A/s1600/20150601_133602.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"> <img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiP2kVsD9VHT6Qj6WaFRvo_nxKqhWj8FjFbqYVIpE6JhEFdJhe99NXuT13bXhK7ZXmpDvaugwJ4iO4fzLL3iHSBKfUcCR5-XpZV2NA49hwicyXZYeF78h-sCti4o1XDNxSFLzpmZR6c01A/s640/20150601_133602.jpg"> </a> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">KOKO Head was a tramline to care5y supplies up the mountain, so you hike up the railroad ties, which are like stairs that are spaced apart so it is like doing lunges......lots and lots of lunges. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Then you get to the steep part and it is almost verticle.

My dad passed away last year after a battle with cancer so I wanted to do something special with his shirts. I used this<a href="http://thethriftyquilter.blogspot.com/2009/06/seven-shirts-seven-steps-one-thrifty.html"> pattern</a> to make my first quilt out of his shirts. It takes seven shirts to make the quilt.<br />

The back of the quilt is pieced from the backs and scraps of the shirts. I gave this to my step mother for Christmas. I have a tub of shirts and ties and hope to make a quilt for each of my children and myself in the coming year.Southernerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00742517323759698146noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812208706999245048.post-65034306180598625142013-12-26T06:40:00.000-06:002013-12-26T06:40:03.280-06:00Merry Christmas!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas this year. We had a very blessed year and kind of kept it simple this year. It was my first year with two children out of the house. One is in the army and could not come home. That is a new part of growing up that I will have to get used to. The other one is local so she was able to be with us, just different.<br />

Some of my favorite ornaments: the kids photos. They get an ornament each year that is either something that is part of that year such as getting a driver's license or is something they are into that year such as Spider man. <br />

My Uncle George passed away so I traveled back to my parents hometown of Laurel, Mississippi. Uncle George was a month from turning 93 years old. He was an amazing man of God that blessed all he came in contact with. All the men on my dad's side are big men.... most 6'4" so they make a presence in a room. Uncle George was a Mississippi Highway for 26 years and he loved these guys. He was the oldest retired Mississippi Highway Patrolman at his death. They had honor guards at his wake to guard his body, which changed out every 30 minutes. That was so amazing and touching. At the graveside they stood in formation and gave him a 21 gun salute. Uncle George was known for giving everyone $2 bills with Matthew 5:13 on them. He was a people person so he would hand them to people and say, "That $2 isn't much, but that verse written on there is worth more than you could ever imagine." Without bringing up another thing about God unless they asked, he'd talk about other stuff leaving the person feeling cared for and a lasting impression. It was his unique way of witnessing to others. <br />

I went by to see where Mama grew up. Her dad built this little log home, which was later added onto. It is about to fall apart now, but you can see the original log structure below. It had a porch and long section coming off where the unpainted wood is and also another section matching the green part to the right of the porch section. All of that has been torn down. <br />

The church was right at the entrance to their road. Mama became the pianist at the age of 9 and continued until she and my dad moved to Jackson. She was also the church secretary. Dad joined when they married and was the chairman of the deacons. <br />

In talking to my uncle I found out that my great grandfather settled in Collins, MS. His son, my grandfather's brother bought hundreds of acres in Laurel for $.50 an acre. He wanted his dad to come live on the land near him so my great grandfather did. He later sold his son, my grandfather, 42 acres for $1 an acre. My grandfather couldn't pay the whole $42, so my uncle remembers having to walk $3 over to make payments. So, my dad and his five brothers and sisters each received 6 acres of that 42 acres, with my grandmother having the other 6 acres. We had family all around that 42 acres belonging to dad's uncle and other uncles and aunts. The cemetery is filled with Harpers from way back. <br />

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">We stopped by Clanton, AL on our way home from south Alabama and I got a half bushel of peaches. I was really discouraged because on Monday they firm and I was sick Tuesday. By Tuesday night I had to throw away four because they were furry. The rest all had soft and some rotten spots. I couldn't believe how fast they were rotting.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New;">So, Wednesday I had to get them canned. I threw away so much cutting off the soft spots. In all I ended up with 17 pints. I saw a recipe for gluten free peach muffins I will have to try.</span></div>

I am going a darker tan/creme color on the trim. I then want to paint the shutters and door a medium-dark gray. I debated how to paint the door and door trim out. I'll show some options:<br />

The one above has the sidelights painted out the trim color. As I have driven around that is the option on almost all the newer homes in our area. For a traditional house like mine it makes it look like you have a lot of mill work and presence when I don't have an overhang or any other details.<br />

The one above and below painted out all the mill work in the same color. I love this look, too. So, I've really debated. In the end, I think I have chosen to paint the sidelights and trim in the trim color and just paint the door gray.<br />

My next decision was whether to paint the garage door gray or the trim color. Almost all the garage doors in our area are the trim color. Which is white, beige, tan. Which will show dirt a lot easier. So, I think I like the look of painting ours gray. It will show less dirt. <br />

I plan to order this carriage house door kit. It is the hardware and the "windows" are a panel with black Plexiglas panels that look like glass. I think it really makes the plain door look so much better. Our door is seen as you come down the street so is one of the first views of our home. <br />

This is the back of my home. I've decided to paint it in the gray also pretty much for the same reason of not showing dirt. We have red clay which is awful when it splashes on the wood. </div>

We ate at Olive Garden for our anniversary. I am so excited that they offer gluten free pasta. I was able to eat the salad without croutons. Then, I had the penne pasta with grilled chicken and a garlic marinara sauce. So good! I did have a glass of wine, too :)Southernerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00742517323759698146noreply@blogger.com0
