What a beautiful day this has been

I woke up about 5:30 this morning and my mind was praising God. Isn't that a beautiful way to wake up?

Then G-son came and even though he was cranky to begin with, I feel sure it was because he had to get up and out so early . Any way he quickly got in a better mood and kept asking me "what tomytain-tt wit mot" The words he is trying to say is Watch Thomas the train on tv with the remote. I use the remote and access Kids on demand and there is dozens and dozens of childrens shows on there.

I ate so very good today, probably more calories than I should have BUT I did look up how much calories I need to take in to lose weight for my height, weight, age and how active I am and according to 2 or 3 sites I went to, I can eat 2000 calories or less and I will lose weight. We will see. I have tried so many different ways to lose weight and nothing seems to work. I have no problem trying something else. At least my body won't go into starvation mode.

Our little town is having a community get togeather tomorrow night. We have live singers and a band and fireworks and food. I have gone for the past 3 years and I have really enjoyed it. DD and G-son will be coming here to enjoin the "party" with me and dh. I am looking forward to it.

I went and exercised walked for 40 minutes today. I kinda got out of the habit of exericsing daily. Tomorrow is December 1 and I am going to challenge myself to exercise for Dec. at least 1200 minutes. I do like the way I feel when I exercise, and I feel that I am doing something just for me, which encourages me to try harder to resist the high calorie foods.

My calories for today was 1735, exercise was walking almost 2 miles, and that took me almost 40 minutes.

God has been wonderful to dh and i this past year. We have had so many opportunities to visit other churches and to hear so many preachers. I thank my Lord for giving to me a hungry heart.

Sleep well everyone
