Just A Few Random Thoughts Today
I woke up this morning looking out my window. I opened my eyes to see a beautiful reddish
pink sky. There is an old saying that instantly came to my mind. Whether it be an old wives tale I do not
know. The saying goes like this and may
be commonly known by many.
"Red in the morning sailors warning. Red at night sailors delight."
My thoughts
are that if we see the red sky in the morning we should be alerted to
bad weather approaching.
Now as I look out my window I see a beautiful sun shining
day and I'm telling myself I need to get out and walk and try avoiding any
more extra fluff . After our Thanksgiving meal yesterday.
I have decided to start my New Year's resolution early.
I've done some extra setting lately because of
sewing and I don't want the fluff to
take me over.
You know, life at my age has taught me many things and
one of them is about losing weight and gaining it back. You start out as an hour glass. Then one day
you figure out you're a pear. Then you
lose weight and regain your hour glass shape, then you gain back and you're a
pear again. This process goes on like
this .. hour glass, pear, hour glass, pear, hour glass, pear, PUMPKIN.
For the first time you're a pumpkin.
Well just to let you know I'm very close to the pumpkin stage and it's
very hard to change after you get there.
This was the closest illustration I could think of
if I were to compare myself to a pumpkin.
Especially when I'm all dressed up in orange to go to a Massillon Tiger
Game. If I were to go to a game on
Halloween night- all I'd have to do is
put on orange and it's an instant costume.... A PUMPKIN.
Someone said to me just tonight winning happens
with little gains... and my response was sometimes losing comes with little gains too. If it's gaining weight back a little bit at a
time - In this case I would rather lose
than gain.
