Fascinating!

It took exactly 38 seconds for my hand and leg to start shaking when I did intervals on the bike yesterday!

It took exactly 4 minutes and 48 seconds for my arm and hand to calm down and get it's natural swing when I walked on the treadmill yesterday!

And it took exactly the same amount of time for my hand to start shaking again as it took for me to glance up at the clock and realize my work out was running too long and I was going to have to hurry to get to work!!!

Fascinating isn't it!

No???   

hhmmppff....

Tough Crowd!!!

A Great Date Night!

 Ingredients and price of a great date night:    

1.  Dinner at "Panda Express" - it turned out to be customer appreciation night "Buy one dinner, get one free".  They appreciated me so much they even gave me a free drink while I waited for them to cook more "Honey Walnut Shrimp" which is really yummy btw!  Two dinners - $8  (And the best part - no cooking or clean up) We even had 1/2 left over for dinner tomorrow night.  That takes the cost down for the date night dinner - $4. 

2.  Two movie coupons from Costcos and an awesome movie to spend them on, "Hunger Games" -  $16

3.  Popcorn (with lots of chemical butter and salt - sshhh  - don't want to hear it!!!)  Using our Regal bonus card on Tuesday night gets us a small popcorn for $2 which can be upgraded to a Med. for another dollar making it - $3

4.  Drink - I took an empty water bottle in and filled it up at the theater water fountain. (um...it says no food or drink can be brought in.  It doesn't say nothing about empty water bottles)  Drink - free!

5.  Of course my great date companion of choice was Hubby (even if he does ask a lot of questions cause he won't read the books first) - he was free too!  (sort of)    ;-)


Another great date night with my beloved and the grand total was $23!

Not too bad!  Not too bad!

One word can change a life - forever!

One year ago, my doctor dropped a bomb on my life by saying one word! Parkinson's!




It's amazing how one word can change your life forever!

That one word blew my life as I knew it apart.  
It changed me!  
It has changed my life, my relationship with others, my focus, 
my thought process, and just about everything else.

One word - one moment in time - and everything was changed - forever!


 (possibly a little over dramatic - but you get my drift)
