I love to walk and I especially love it when my husband can go with me.  He went this morning.  We went down the fire trail behind our house and it was so very peaceful.  The birds seemed to be singing to us as we walked and we saw where some hunters had put out corn to entice the deeer to come there and eat.  I don't mind deer hunters,  most of them use the deer to help get by.  Food is expensive and the economy really is bad right now.  Not only that but the south is just overrun with deer and they run out in front of cars and people get hurt.  The thing is that now i will be a little afraid that the hunters will see movement  (me) through the trees and perhaps they will shoot.  Dh said that hunters mostly hunt in the evening because that is when deer eat.    Be my luck that the hunters would come out early and just think I was a deer that was hungry early.   Maybe I will start walking at the park (although that is so boring going round and round in circles.  )

I woke up early thins morning and started on the Sunday School lesson.  I don't think I have to teach this week but Pati has been sick and I would rather be prepared just in case.  I finished it and went over all my notes with dh.  Usually I have the entire lesson finished in 15 minutes but today I talked a little slower.   lol
For a southerner I talk really fast.

Today I ate steamed veggies, (carrotts, green beans, celery,  broccoli, and I think something else was in it I just can't remember and I am too lazy to go look at the package)and stir fried beef w/ onions,coffee, berries ( I love blueberries)corn, squash, and kung poa chicken. Recipe is below this post. 

Sometimes I think some of the things we eat is all habit.  For instance, earlier this week I had bought a small bag of my favorite hard candy.  I would bring a few pieces to my computer desk while I surfed and I would enjoy the candy.  The candy that I loved is now gone, and when I began typing I looked around for some candy and finally went and got a couple of mints from dh.  I really don't care for mints but I ate them because i felt like something was missing.  I just got in the habit of having the candy.

I am excited about the parenting classes.  It means that I am that much closer to being approved for foster parenting.  I am looking forward to having children around again.  I love children and I know that as long as I feel this way I will have something to help out children in need. 

Thats it for today,
sleep well
God bless
