So these past few weeks I have been making an honest effort to live healthier. For three weeks my friend Emily and I have been walking three times a week and I have been sticking to my weight watchers points. There have only been a few days I’ve gone over my allotted points. I honestly have not weighed myself because I don’t want to be bummed if the scale didn’t move. But I realized Friday I may have reached a point where I might actually be living healthier.
I went to Kroger on Friday to get salad for supper with Jonathan and Kate (Jon and Kate minus 8)..lol and I made my way to the check out counter…my basket had in it:
Lettuce
Spinach
Grapes
Peaches
Peas
Fat-free vinaigrette
Oranges
….that was it. No processed foods, no junk food. I was super proud…so to reward myself I supported my local girl scouts by buying a book of samoas! No Fear…unlike last year the box of cookies is still around and it has been over 24 hours...victory.
Proud Iowans living in the South! We are learning to laugh and love together, while enjoying our lives with our fur children, LeRoy and EmmyLou!

Okay Okay
Okay I promise I'm not giving up on the 30 photos! I'm working on it, but sometimes I just get frustrated because I can't find the photos I want to use. So I am going to try to get all the pictures done now! lol
21. A picture of something you wish you could forget--That in America you can be considered "famous" for drinking and having sex on national television...
22. A picture of something you wish you were better at--Sports, any and all sports...
23. A picture of your favourite book-- Who has one favourite book?! ugh..I suppose I'll just have to pick one..
24. A picture of something you wish you could change--I wish I could change the rate of abortion in America
25. A picture of your day--I spend my days in Lee Hall on Mississippi State University campus
29. A picture that can always make you smile--Our wedding pictures!
30. A picture of someone you miss --haha I'm not sure why they keep asking me for one person! I miss my family..all of my family, Grandmas, Grandpas, Aunts, Uncles, Cousins..and all my friends...but I don't have a picture of all of those people so...I'll use this one!
We took this picture when I was 18, my first semester at UNI...I can not believe how much we have all grown!
Well I did it! I completed 30 days of photos!
On a side note..I hate hate hate snow. But I think that I might start to tolerate snow in Mississippi, because 2 inches means the university shuts down..which means I don't have to go to class..which is always good :)
