This past weekend I had the opportunity to go with 6 of my friends to the beach for a LADIES ONLY beach trip! We had so much fun! As always my reflections take me to the thoughts of what would this ole' world be like without friends! These ladies know me inside and out! We have all laughed together, cried together, hurt together and rejoiced together! Spending time with my friends is always special and makes me a nicer person at home. Even though I love my husband and child unconditionally, it is nice to have time for me........a time when I don't have to take care of anything or anyone else, other than myself!
We shared drinks, favorite past stories and much laughter! The strolls down memory lane were priceless! Took me back to a time when life was a little less complicated! I didn't realize it then, but it was! The day on the beach was a great one. The sky was blue, the water was calm and felt like bath water almost! The evening out took us to a favorite restaurant called Senor Frogs. The meal was wonderful and so was the entertainment! Much laughter was shared! Ahhhh, good days! Good friends! Good times! Life was good!
It has been one month since my lap band surgery. I am down 18 pounds! I feel so much better! Even though I have a long way to go, I am on my way! It has made such a difference in my life already! People say they can even tell a difference in my tone of how I write.........it must really be showing then! haha! To see results, to take something so serious and try so hard..........it is so worth it and the inner feeling is amazing!
Today, it is raining off and on.........but I don't mind! I keep looking out the window and enjoying what I see! For now, life is good and I hope it continues! I plan to do what I can to make it that way! I plan to continue doing things that will make me feel better about me so that I can feel better about life.........that makes for happy times all the way around!
To the ladies that went on the trip, I love you all and I appreciate you for who you are and what you are to me and for the part you play in my life to make it more complete! Here's to more good times and adventures in the future! For those of you who read my blog........take time for YOU! It makes you a happier person! ~Until Later

Taking time for "you." Is great opportunity to continue to exploer where you are, where you are going, and where you have been. We all can be so consumed by the world and the day-to-day trials and tribulations. Special friends do help fulfill some parts of us that can get lost but all is temporary. God gives us all we need in those moments of finding ourselves and "taking time for you." Thus because we allow so much to takt time from us we try to get some of that time back. We can never get it back, but we can be more mindful of how we are spending it.
