Random bits on my mind-

If you say you will do something but don’t follow through, than your word is only worth a grain of salt. Be true to your word, otherwise you are just sabotaging your words worth.

Did you know-
STRESSED spelled backwards is DESSERTS. I am a fat kid at heart.

Joke I just learned-
Cop pulls over a man and awards him $500 for wearing his seat-belt. Then the cop ask the man what’s he’s gonna do with the money. The man says “I’m gonna go to driving school, and learn to drive. ”
Then the wife learns over and says “Officers, don’t listen to him. He’s a smartass when he’s drunk!”

Well time to go. Stay beautiful. Happy Friday!!

Peace, Love, Rock on!!

I literally just finished reading, Into the Wild, by Jon Krakauer.

(Note:  I have not seen the movie, nor am I in any rush to go rent it.)

Josh had given me this book to read, as I traded him one of mine to read. He said he read Into the Wild in a day; however, I could not… I get so emotionally attached to characters, fictional or in this case not. I have been procrastinating to read the last few chapters to prolong the demise of Christopher McCandless. I’m not going to write a whole book review, but I will say that this tale of a man with an unquenchable thirst for achieving his dream. Chris, you inspire me.

I knew this day was coming… I’ve hit a plateau at the gym. My pre-chemo jeans still don’t fit, and maybe its winter dragging on. I need a change, so Friday I started my first spin class!!! I like it, I really do; However, my lungs on the other hand… not so much.

Instead of getting upset about my jeans, I decided to do something about it today, I shopped. No, not for bigger jeans. I bought a few new items to wear to class, bright colors to keep me motivated to reach my goal. My gym bag now looks like my painting palette.

Never give up.
