What Have You Done Today to Make You Feel Proud?
Well, I ain't hit a lick all day long...and I'm proud that I made masself take a day off! We need to do that sometimes to get our batteries recharged. It took me a long time to learn that the hard way.
I chatted online with some of my crazee funnee friends and laughed my ass off, so it was a good day and adjusted my perspective on things. Life is what we make of it, and sometimes if the best we can say is that we're here, then we should be proud that we live to fight this battle another day. Stay strong all of my loser friends, it's going to take all of your strength to get to the finish line...but don't forget to enjoy the good things in your life along the way. Like a great cup of coffee...or spending time with people you care about...while drinking a great cup of coffee!

Amen, Mary!
Today I feel proud that I'm maintaining a positive attitude while hubby is discouraged about our retail store. It's easy to slip down in the dumps too, but if I continue to laugh and work hard it makes dealing with this easier for him.
The other thing is; I've spent more time with my preggers daughter lately, even when I had "important" things to do. She'll only have her first pregnancy one time, and since there's no "daddy" to speak of in the picture, she needs me. So I sit doing NOTHING with her head on my lap. And I think... this is an investment too. I'm proud that my daughter is thinking of her little son and is anxious to be the best mommy she can be to him. It's awesome. She feels that her life has led her to this point in time, to give birth to and raise this little guy. I'm watching her and .... I'm just proud.
Mary - I'd love to go have coffee and laugh that part of my anatomy off, however given my age, it's sort of missing as it is. I do have those perky breasts, however, which is a comfort.

Awwe Ruth, you are such a good wife and Mama. And it looks like you've raised your daughter to be a good Mama, too. You SHOULD be proud!
Well, about the butt thing...I cheated by having my plastic surgeon lift mine! But you would be amazed how much half squats ( to save your knees ), and kicks do for your derriere'. And by contracting your butt muscles and holding them tight, even when your just sitting and drinking coffee, you can do a lot to tighten things up, too. Ooh, buns of steel!

Lift, lift, squeeeeeeeeeze, lift lift...
I like this eliptical machine I've been using that is a sort of stair stepper glide thing. DH says he sees a difference in the butt. I'm gonna start working my butt so I can have a butt contest with you and Kim.
;-)
Gotta bounce a quarter off my buns.
OOO it's time to close the store! YIPPEEEEE!

You are waaaaaay too competitive! You're game, my Happy Lifted A$$...when was the last time you worked out? Oh yeah, two surgeries and one revision ago. And after next Tuesday, how long do you think you'll have to wait to get started?
I'm game, but I ain't gettin' any younger so I hope mine doesn't fall by the time you're ready!
