Thanksgiving is Just 3 Days Away, eek!

Thanksgiving is just 3 days away & I'm sort of dreading it.  I've made the choice to change the way I eat for better health & to lose weight.  I'm afraid it's going to be very difficult to resist some of the food goodies that go hand in hand at the holiday.  We usually go to my sisters but she just had knee replacement surgery so we're not going this year.  That may be my saving grace!  It would be especially difficult to make good choices when there are really few good choices to pick.  We're going to go out to eat.  That won't be ideal but I can choose a large salad & lots of vegies.  Even though they'll have fat they wouldn't have at home I also won't have a bunch of unhealthy left overs to deal with.
Sometimes making the right choice & sticking with it is very difficult but I've got to keep my on the prize - better health, feeling better & looking better. So let's go!

One Choice

We are always one choice away from changing our lives.  It can be a good choice or a bad choice but either way we will reap the consequences.  Sometimes we make a choice without considering the outcome.  Sometimes we just don't fully realize where the choice will lead us.  But make no mistake your life will be changed by that one choice.

It's a New Day!

I am enjoying the course on internet writing.  I've always wanted to be a writer & wanted to start taking steps in that direction.  The hubby & I have talked about going on the road together which sounds very interesting to me.  We sure can't make it on his social security but we could possibly augment that hauling freight.  If I could generate some income as well, while doing what I enjoy, well that would be wonderful!  Plus I'd get to see some of the country from coast to coast.
I just pray the Lord will lead us in the right direction & give us wisdom for all the decisions that need to be made.  It's exciting and scary all at the same time.  I just have to remember to "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths."  That's a promise!  God can't lie & does not break his promises.
