Woohoo!!! How nice to suddenly find that some money has come your way!
Well, I haven't read of the blogs because I haven't been in mybloggers to do so. Now that I see that I will have the time to be here from time to time, I can check out her posts while I'm here.
It never hurts to read about your story again. I can lose weight when I'm positive about myself and it makes me feel like I'm in control, and that makes me feel good so I have more success. I do know from experience, though, that the easiest and fastest way I have ever lost weight is when I was at my sickest, most hurting, most difficult time of my life...when everything became and was hopelessly all about me. Now to psychologically pull the two together (weight loss and healthier state of mind)so that I can do some good in all the different areas that need improvement. I'm happy to say that I'm getting there. It's been a little slow, but I can see and feel the progress.
AJ, a theater night might be just great! I've suggested to Fredo that he should come to Providence to see it. What do you think?
See it in Providence! PPAC is a great theater and, who knows, maybe some blogging buddies can get together for it.
Oh, yes, I've noted the Providence dates! I, too, am already saving up for it!
Although I have not personally met Barney Frank, I consider him a friend... not just my friend...but a friend to all. He's not only there as a positive influence and ally of the gay and lesbian population, but is there for everyone as he continues to educate the public and make a difference in attitudes. This is a man who is already making a mark in history.
I'm a big Pacino fan, so I forgive him even when he's in something of a bomb. I got a kick out of seeing that hair, too! Because of the reviews on this movie, though, I might wait to see it on the tube instead of on the screen.
Hey, I'm here on mybloggers, reading your posts, and...as you can see... commenting on them! The news is, I've gained a few pounds back during that stint of staying with my parents but, hey!, I don't hate myself for it because I'm still one cool lady! It's been a couple of weeks since I've been back home and I've held that same "uh-oh, I'm not happy" weight at a stand-still, so I've at least stopped the gaining process. Now it's time for me to say, "Just wait and see! This will soon be NO weight to see!"
"Gay Agenda"-Is that what "they" say "we" are trying to do by "destroying" everything "they" hold dear and what this country was built on by "us" wanting to have the same "equal and fair rights" that EVERYBODY should have, regardless of race, creed, etc., etc., etc., as if "we" don't hold anything dear enough that "we" want to enjoy the same entitlements? Is that the "Gay Agenda" that you mean?
"Gay Lifestyle"-is that what "they" say about the normal lives, dreams, emotions, pursuits, problems, accomplishments, beliefs, feelings, interests, diversities, etc., etc., etc., that "we" DO like every other living soul on this earth, but "they" say is different? Is that the "Gay Lifestyle" that you mean?
"Arguing Politics and Religion"-is what I have decided to avoid a long time ago, however I am willing to DISCUSS both, to CONSIDER both, and to have MY OWN OPINIONS on both, to DEFEND my right to my opinions on both, but to NEVER ARGUE on or about either.
"Listening to Mother"-I do listen to my mother, who has spoken these words to me for as long as I can remember, "Listen to what others have to say so as to learn, but be who you really are, speak what you believe, and do what you have to do. Weigh all from others and from yourself to build from so you become the person that YOU can live with and can trust." This is why I can still listen to my mother.
50 is Nifty! Wow, what an awesome accomplishment to celebrate! That much love and devotion should not go unrecognized! Oh, by the way, nice pics!
I love these! What great music for a barbecue! Of course, if Edie is there, I'd have to add "Hey, Good Lookin', Whatcha Got Cookin" to that list!
If he's straight, I'm not interested. If he's gay, then it doesn't matter. If he's bi, it doesn't matter and I'm not interested.
For every gay, lesbian, etc. youth that is taught, counseled, and helped, there has to be at least a dozen or more adults taught, counseled, and helped to understand, recognize, accept, tolerate, embrace, and help these youths and the whole entire subjects of homosexuality, teenagers, suicide, peer pressure, hate crimes, depression, etc. Somehow, though some kind of reverse psychology, it's the straight population that must be put in the situation of being in the minority.
