Happy Independence Day!

Wishing you a sparkling 4th of July, filled with family, food, fun, and fireworks. Please have fun, don’t blow yourself up and DRINK WATER. It’s a hot one today!

 

Quiet Darkness

Here I sit in the quiet darkness of the night, awake as always, as you are sleeping. Our lives go on, oceans apart, hours separating us. Still, somehow, we connect, just like now, when I feel you in my heart and soul.

You may be far away, but you are still right by my side, my strength, my heart, that voice that moves me forward. How can I ever describe what my heart feels at this moment? There are not words that can capture such a feeling, but then we need no words.

This bond is ours, no matter where life may lead us.

Keepin it Cool in the Pool

Just Wear The Damn Swimsuit. You are your own worst enemy. No ONE cares if you have belly rolls, cottage cheese thighs, and stretch marks.  Literally NO ONE.  Get out there and live your summer loudly and proudly. You are beautiful just the way you are!

Give me a Break

Taking a break from my busy day of laundry and  housework while jamming out to my favorite 80s music.

Amazing Day, Amazing Guy

In the heart of Vancouver’s downtown, Stanley Park is 400 hectares of unmatched beauty, full of everything you could want in a park, and filled with some of the prettiest views you could imagine.

Houston we have a problem

My psoriatic arthritis has been managable the past 3 months but this week has been absolutely horrible.  My body is in a flare. Nausea, vomitting, diarrhea, severe stomach pain, and today my blood pressure is jacked up.  Today was hard,  I just couldn't pretend past the pain and discomfort.

I've been Violated!!

 

A Blustery Day

Night Out with Friends

 Spent the evening at Tuscany Casino celebrating a friends birthday.

2024. . . What's in Store?

I weigh exactly 12 pounds more than I did on this date last year and 20 more than I did at my lowest weight last year. I still consider this an accomplishment given my struggles the last 4 months with my health.

I am still down 40 pounds from my heaviest weight ever. 

That will never be seen as a failure.
