Haven't written for awhile. Been too busy editing my little brother's story....smiles.
So what do you all think about the big to do about changing your horoscope sign. Big sigh. I can't believe we have all these problems in the world and some people have time to check high up in the sky and tell us we no longer are who we thought we were.
I am a Virgo and though have the time I feel like I am a Leo, I wouldn't change my sign just because someone says the planets have changed positions. I'm pretty sure that they were in the right place when I was born........smiles. Isn't our sign decided by when we were born? I'm kind of confused about that part. Maybe this is for the babies that are born hereonin. Will they have two horoscopes? One for the old and one for the young. Makes you wonder doesn't it?
Crazy.

Where did that Woman Go?
When I was young (not that I am old now by any means), I could fit into a size 12 and feel small.
I am fairly tall and always could use the excuse that I was "big boned". I hated that saying, but it worked.........smiles.
Today I am bursting at the seams. I am outgrowing my clothes and I don't like it one bit. Do something about it you say? Well, I am. I am now the proud co-owner of a Wii with all the trimmings including Wii Fit Plus. I have been faithfully "working out" every other day.........lol. I have to fit it in in between the family's favorite shows you know.
Let me tell you about this Wii. I have gone running, moved my hips with a hula hoop, did some dance steps and even tried the Yoga. After all this exertion how many calories do you think I burned. 50? 100? Not even close. A lousy 16 calories. So what can you eat for 16 calories? I don't want to ruin the good I have done you know and don't want to eat anymore than the calories I burned. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh, I have it. A carrot? Celery? Hell, no. If I work out I want something that makes me think that working out is worth it. Chocolate.........a big giant piece of chocolate.........lol. Just teasing.
Ok, about the Yoga I tried on the Wii. It said to cross your legs (believe it or not I was able to do that. Yes, it amazed me too), and stare into the candle. You are not supposed to move and to concentrate intently on the candle no matter what happens. I thought, this is going to be a piece of cake, and yes I was still thinking of food, lol. I'm staring intently into the candle and poof a butterfly flies past on the screen. I must of moved because all of a sudden I am done with a mere 16 seconds. There was that try again thing. Well, I'm pretty stubborn so I once again crossed my legs and stared into the screen. I was so intent that that darn butterfly flitted around and I didn't move a muscle. A scary monster jumped out at the screen and my willpower was like steel and didn't budge. Finally, after three minutes.........yep, that is a long time by the way when you are sitting still, I conquered that section of the Yoga. While this all was going on and I was intently staring into the candle, I did feel a deep relaxation taking place in my body.
Can you believe that? It really works!
