"Commitment is a line you cross. It is the difference between wishing and doing." unknown
I do a lot of wishing. Like right now. I'm wishing that I could commit more. I am able to commit to a lot of things. All the things that I hate, like smoking. You would never see me light one up. Ever. But can I commit to not eating chocolate. Nope. I like chocolate. In fact, I love it. I think I should just marry chocolate. Can I commit to exercising everyday? Nope. I try. Just not hard enough. I can't get myself to "commit" to it. To stick with it. I always have something else that I want or need to do. Right now I could be on the eliptical machine, but nope. I'm here writing that I should be on the eliptical machine. And I'm running out of time to be able to exercise this morning. It's already 10:30 and I need to shower before Katie gets here. And we need to leave here by 11:30. Not looking good. I will try to squeeze it in after we get home from the movie. Yep. I can commit to going to a movie and spending the day out, but can't commit to staying home and doing stuff like laundry and exercise.
Gee...I wish I could commit more......

About Me
- Barbara_in_COviaWA
- Hey there! Thank you for coming to my Blog. I finally decided to write my own Blog after many requests from friends. I really don't think that what I have to say is that interesting, but we'll see! I am hoping that this becomes a fun place for people to meet and hang out. Or....it will just be me talking to myself everyday. Which is fine....just kind of boring. So come by, stay a while, invite your friends. Or just stop by and read. I will be here!

Hi Barbara,
I totally understand!!! I'm in the same boat. Its 2:00 pm and I have to leave to get the boys in 1/2 hour. I only emptied the dishwasher LOL. Its soooo cold here like 8* I just curled up with my blanked and fuzzy socks and watched tv. We made homemade vegetable beef soup for dinner yesterday it should last for 3 days of dinner for us. What did you go see at the movies???
I will stop back later.
Hi Barb & Renee!
Marry chocolate! That would work for me. Oh how I love chocolate.
My pilates ball sits in my living room collecting dust. I have used it twice in the past month. My Chiropracter stays on my butt. He knows when I don't do my exercises and he says I must make time. He is right. I understand. He makes time but gosh he only sleeps 5 hours a day at the most. I wish I could do that and only need 5 hours of sleep, work 11 hours a day and then be on the computer working another 5 hours like he does. He's on my buddy list and I alwyas see him on line working away. When I was in my twenties I worked out at the gym two hours a day, five days a week and I cooked all my meals from scratch. I think about those days and the energy I had and all the cooking and baking I did. Well I am off to grab a burger at McDonalds and run errands. See what I mean. This is my routine now.
Last night we watched the new al Pacino movie out. It was great.
Hey RE & Dreama...
Homemade vegi soup sounds yummy. I made chicken enchiladas today. I actually started it last night. I put the chicken and salsa and taco seasoning in the slow cooker and left it on all night. I woke up at 4am and thought I should check on it. It was done so I just turned it off. When I got up this morning it was still really hot. Which was a good thing! I put the rest of it together this morning before I blogged and put it in the fridge. It's heating up in the oven now. We are having our office staff Christmas party tonight and that is what I am taking. I made extra for Robert for his dinner. We had to postpone our office party because of all of the Christmas snow that we had. But we did not get down as low as you guys on the East Coast. brrrrrrrr......I don't think I have ever been in that cold of temps before. In the teens and maybe 11*. Not sure. I think it was down to either 11* or 13* when we were in Alaska at the Iditarod.
Today's movie was The Reader. It was really good. A very powerful movie. I loved it. Be warned though....there is a lot of sex and nudity in the first half. I felt wrong seeing that young man full frontal, but I guess they waited until he was 18 before they shot those scenes. Katie said "I think he's actually 19." Well gee...that just makes it all better....Besides being a little embarrassed sitting between my mother and my daughter during that, it was a fantastic movie.
Dreama....step away from the McD's!!!!
Barb..You must have channeled your thoughts to me because I did indeed drive pass McD's and I stopped at Taco Bueno instead.:0) I got one crispy chicken taco and one plain bean chalupa and an unsweet tea.
Barb your chicken enchiladas sound yummy.
Renee please move to Texas and bring the vegtable soup. Hehe!
I should cook my own meals and stop eating so much processed food. I spend more time preparing Cinnamon's meals than my own. She gets 4 types of doog food mixed together and she still sticks her nose in the air and walks away. My sister always tells me to stop fussing over my Pekingese and that she will eat normally if I will stop being an enabler.
I had the TV on today when they had the breaking news. They immediately showed the airplane in tact and the passengers safely getting out. That was one skilled pilot to land that plane so safely. I always skip a heart beat when there is breaking news. I have continued to feel like this ever since 9-11. I am just so happy that this was not a tragedy.
