A day at the park I certainly couldn't refuse the opportunity to have my camera in my hand taking some beautiful pics. Enjoy.

Flash Friday 55 (A hikin we will go)

A hiking we go
all six of us
backpacks in tow.

No worries,
No hurry

Bees a buzzing,
Birds a chirping.

Long trails
slippery rocks
upon the rivers bottom.

Everyone buddy up
a hiking we will go.

A scuffle in the leaves,
eyes bulging in disbelief.

Have no fear.
A hiking we will go.

Earth Day was Yesterday

Okay just wondering how many people joined the millions around the world in celebration of Earth Day? Well I did in one way but not so much in other ways that I probably could have. The way that I did contribute was at 9pm my time my whole household powered down for 1 full minute. Next year we will try something else and the powering down but it was a start and we did it. Tell me what you did would love to hear how others celebrated Earth Day.

I Got An Interview

I am so excited right now and just in awe and disbelief. I got a phone call earlier today, one which I originally missed due to having my cell phone on vibrate. Well anyways the call was from a local newspaper and they wanted to interview me. Yes me can you believe it? They had gotten information about me and the Autism support group that I have scheduled to start in May. I was so beside myself. When I returned the call I said wow the word is really spreading and the reporter said oh yes it is lol. I am just so excited. The interview went really well and the article is scheduled to run either this week or next. I am in my glory at the whole thought that I am getting the awareness out there and people are taking notice I couldn't be happier. So to all of you just an FYI April is Autism Awareness Month so show your support.

Something about you

YOU have taught me a lot in a short amount of time.

You have taught me to enjoy the small things in life,

that not everything is a big deal.

YOU have taught me how to let some things just go

I have yet to master this concept but I am getting there.

YOU make me smile without even trying.

YOU Make me blush and you don't even know it

or perhaps you do.

YOU are always there to listen to me

even if you well maybe don't want to be.

YOU have showed me love without ever coming face to face with me.

YOU are wonderful and don't even know it, or perhaps you do.

YOU know who you are mister Taffy this one was for you.

OMG It had to be created by a MAN!

Okay who the heck said thin was in? Cause quite honestly fluffy is looking perty darn good right now lol. I have been on this quest to just get healthy overall. Being in the health profession I should look somewhat fit I guess. Anyways last night I was bound and determined to get snacks that weren't packed with calories, sugars, or carbs. So I bought a couple boxes of 100 calorie pack cupcakes or streudel cakey things. Well upon opening them after eating my 90 calorie organic low sodium Butternut squash soup today, I was in pure shock at the size of these cupcakes. It truly had to be a man who created this. One of those men who think his wife or girlfriend need to be on the cover of Fitness, Maxim, or the latest edition of Sports Illustrated. Upon one glance of this I truly was thinking of packing it back in the box and going to the head cashier desk at the grocery store and was going to say "Where's the cupcake?" There is three in a pack hell if they gave me one more I could play connect four. These things are the size of a damn Checker uggggh! I have included a picture of the little dilemma known as a cupcake good grief. It brings tears to my eyes lol.

PLEASE SCROLL DOWN TO MY 55 THANK YOU!

Flash 55 (Wonders)

Birds chatter.
Children's laughter.
Delightful sounds to my ears.

Blue skies.
Yellow suns.
The pretty things I get to see.

The smell of fresh cut grass.
The smell of the ocean.
The scents that make me smile.

What a wonderful world,
filled with beautiful things.

Isn't it a wonderful world?

Its wonderful to be alive!

Woohoo

Finally! I have finally got a place and a definite time to start my Autism Support group. Again for any of you who are new to my blog or who just don't read everything I post which is quite okay, my youngest child my son has Autism. April is world Autism month. I have been quite active in starting up our team for the Autism speaks walk now event which actually doesn't take place until September in our area.

This has been something I have become very passionate about and starting a support group was something I really thought was necessary. So I am now writing up something to be put on our local community television channel. I am so excited yahoo.

Flash Friday 55(Emotions)

Giggles, laughter, smiles,
tears, sadness.
Emotions.

Everyone has them.
Not everyone knows how
to express them.
Why?

Is happiness the
easiest to express?

Or is it sadness?

Why do we all have problems
with expressing emotions?

Doesn't everyone deserve
to be happy?

Makes me think of the song
"If your happy and you know it."

Emotions, share them.
