One Sixth of the Way

Dedicated to the memory of Sean Bell...Respect... ...VOTE...Fight, Fight the Power, You've GOTTA Fight the Powers That Be!

One full week. Thanks for the encouragement, Word_of_Mouth. I am the world's BIGGEST procrastinator, but it is true, when I do manage to get started, I don't quit. I don't like it left hanging in the middle. That goes for my belly, too. That especially goes for my belly! LOL. I've got on the orange dress today, yeah, the kareoke dress that gives me the courage to sing, "Ball of Confusion" and "Lady Marmalade" in front of a room full of fully tanked strangers at the shore...yes, that orange dress. Well, it looks cute! With the new haircut and the cute dress, a friend of my son's who didn't know it was me a gave me a second look. When he realized it was me, he blushed and said, "Oh, sorry, Ma. I didn't know it was you, I was coming to talk to you. Please don't tell your son, I don't mean any disrespect." I chuckled and told him he made my day,and that I still got it goin' on. :) I know, I know but the ego needs stroking every now and again and a genuine compliment goes a long way. It is those unexpected moments that will help to keep me motivated when the going gets tough. Val joined a club and gave me a visitor's pass. I will join her on Monday. The grandma arms are next on the hit list.
