You Can Be Amazing

Posted on 05/24/2013 by PositiveBoomer

“If you are always trying to be normal you will never know how amazing YOU can be.”~Maya Angelou

I give myself reasons why I CAN~

Yes, I can be at the gym consistently! It was quieter at the gym this morning and the manager asked, “Where is everybody?”

The manager commented, “The truly committed are here on Fridays.”

I like that thought. A great way to end my week. I do love fitness and am grateful when I am finished. The upright bike this morning and some weights. Level 11 on the bike, 22 minutes, 10 miles. I am proud of that.

My Hubby constantly tells me how amazing I am, so I will hold that thought close to my heart.

You all are amazing~ Have a wonderful day and I wish all good things to come your way on this Friday.

Do You Eat Breakfast?

Posted on 05/22/2013 by PositiveBoomer

I have heard many times the importance of starting my day with a nutritious breakfast. I am sharing my breakfast that I have been enjoying so much. My daughter always says it is so good to eat oatmeal as “it sticks to her ribs”. It keeps us full longer and of course so delicious.

I use Quaker Oatmeal and I find by pouring the boiling water in my bowl and adding the seeds it only takes a few minutes and it is ready to eat after I put in a variety of fruits. I have used strawberries as well.

My Breakfast~

1/4 cup oatmeal

1/2 cup boiling water

1 tsp. chia seeds

1 tsp. sesame seeds

1 tsp. hemp hearts

2 tsp. ground flax seeds

ginger root

banana, orange

almond milk

My grand kidlets light up my heart.

God is Missing

Posted on 05/16/2013 by PositiveBoomer

A smile to share with you all.

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous. They are always getting into trouble and their parents know if any mischief occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved.
The boys’ mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually.
The mother sent the 8 year old in the morning, with the older boy to see the preacher in the afternoon.
The preacher, a huge man with a deep booming voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, “Do you know where God is, son?”
The boy’s mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.
So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, “Where is God?!
Again, the boy made no attempt to answer.
The preacher raised his voice even more and shook his finger in the boy’s face and bellowed, “WHERE IS GOD?!”
The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & dove into his closet, slamming the door behind him.When his older brother found him in the closet, he asked, “What happened?”
The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, “We are in BIG trouble this time!”
“GOD is missing, and they think WE did it!”
Laughter is good for the Soul~

I hope this made you smile. Another email shared with me from my sister-in-law. Thanks Jude.

How Beautiful Can It Be?

How Beautiful A Day Can Be When Kindness Touches It~

Kindness is so important to me and it is easy for me to share kind thoughts and kind gestures throughout my day.

It works for me and it comes back to me in so many ways.

I am a grateful lady.

I enjoyed some stair climbing this morning and a 2 mile run.

Have your self a wonderful Sunday and do the best you can with just “being kind”~
