Happy Monday Matey's!

Hello friends, happy Monday to ya! It's supposed to snow today (only a few inches) and then we'll have weather in the 50's the rest of the week. Gotta love Colorado:) My car is in desperate need of a bath, this weather is hell on white paint and tinted windows, I'm telling ya!

Max is home from his visit with the grandparents, how I missed him. He seems happy to be home, going to a movie today with friends to round out the remainder of his winter break and then it's back to school tomorrow to begin a new semester. A new semester containing an actual GYM class which I think will either help improve his grades in other classes (less physical energy to distract him) or distract him further, it's hard to say. It changes every year with him. Boys are funny, but I love mine and am thrilled to have him home. His hair is SO cute, he looks so skater-boi, I love it on him. I swear his voice changed while he was gone that one week.....Mothers! That's what Max says to me now "Mom, your being a "Mother" again!" and I laugh at him and say "Damn skippy." It's a good way to keep things light.

So now begins 'real' life again after the Holidays end and normal life ensues, the grind as it were. Except, for the first time in many many moons I feel so incredibly, authentically and genuinely happy, positive and motivated that I feel more and more like that smiling, giggling girl we all know and love. Damn I've missed her, I know you have too! In any event, life promises to be busy this year, filled with new demands of both my mental capacity but of my emotional and physical as well, all which are conducive to completely well rounded tree fruit.

Speaking of fruit, I've decided to make a real effort to add it to my diet. I've recently re-discovered citrus fruits which I've avoided greatly for years for whatever reason. A big juicy, chilled orange is a great breakfast as it turns out. Also, I've noticed that the fruit seems to curb my sugar cravings. I know, I know, fruit is still loaded with sugars...but at least it's natural and not all that unrefined nastiness right?

Ok, back to this issue. For those of you who don't know, JavaScript and I are NOT friends. It's truly truly the dirge of my programming existence. Today tho, I will overcome it and if I don't actually overcome it, I'll work around it like everyone else does!
