I need to be careful about what I write. Here is what I have discovered... things come true!!

You know the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for!"

As a writer, I've discovered that some of the things I write about end up materializing in my own life!

Therefore, I believe it is essential to only write about the things that I want, to think only on the things that I want and to avoid anything that is not my desire.

As a Christ follower, i DO BELIEVE THAT Jesus will indeed supply us with the desires of our heart. While this idea is full of complex philosophical contradictions, some that may or may not be considered "theological", depending on who you are talking with and how this statement is presented.

A quick summary--- I believe that the true and authentic desires of our heart comes from the very best possible version of ourselves- or better put- GOD LIVING IN US!
So then it makes perfect sense that God would want to give us the desires of our heart, because we are actually wanting what HE created us to want.

With this understanding, I can look back over my life and see that this has indeed been a principle that has shaped the course and direction of my existence.

Knowing this I can move forward confidently in the pursuit of all my dreams for tomorrow.

Give me some diet pills right now... and I'll be one happy bride. For almost three months I've known about this wedding.

But the stress of planning a wedding in such a short time frame, combined with the overwhelming emotional tides have led me to not be as diligent as I should have been!

Now all of a sudden the full import is weighing down on me. I wish I could be thinner on my wedding day. But the bottom line is I'll be what I'll be!

Ready to get married and ready to shed this fat once and for all!

Much can be said for packing it all up and heading out to tour America by rv!

While I've never taken this sort of rolling adventure, I have met people who have.

And the verdict is that people who live the gypsey caravan lifestyle really do get into it! They love it!

Maybe one day... but for now I'm tickled pink to hit the road on occasion for a fun little jaunt to a new destination,

With a wedding in thirty days, there is still so much to do!

Where do we begin? Have you ever had so much on your plate that you actually got stuck and didn't end up accomplishing diddly squat? Well, I think that is sort of where I am right now.

Not only do I have my very own wedding in one month, I've got a business to run, a new kitchen to oversee, and a whole lot of transition.

It's about time for me to get centered and focused on the work ahead! tuxedo shirt

One thing that we can count on in this life is unpredictability.

We simply can not predict when life will throw us a curve ball and forever change the dynamics of our world.

One day we are breathing as if the ability to breathe is the most taken for granted function of the human body. Usually we do not even give our breaths a second thought. We think we will live forever. We think that our loved ones will live forever. Then the curve ball hits and human breath becomes the most valuable of commodities.

Sometimes I'm just more motivated than other times to lose weight. Right now I should be far more motivated than I am. In thirty days I'm walking down the aisle and after all I'd like to look as good as possible in my wedding gown. I'd also like to look as good as possible for my groom.

So what's the problem?

What are ephedra supplements and are they safe?

Wikipedia describes Ephedra as "both a stimulant and a thermogenic; its biological effects are due to its ephedrine and pseudoephedrine content.[17] These compounds stimulate the brain, increase heart rate, constrict blood vessels (increasing blood pressure), and expand bronchial tubes (making breathing easier). Their thermogenic properties cause an increase in metabolism, evidenced by an increase in body heat."

Wikipedia goes on to say:

"Ephedra is widely used by athletes despite a lack of evidence that it enhances athletic performance. Ephedra may also be used as a precursor in the illicit manufacture of methamphetamine.

Ephedra has also been used for weight loss, sometimes in combination with aspirin and caffeine. Some studies have shown that ephedra, when taken in a regulated and supervised environment, is effective for marginal short-term weight loss (0.9kg/month more than the placebo), although it is unclear whether such weight loss is maintained.[23] However, several reports have documented the large number of adverse events attributable to unregulated ephedra supplements.

Side effects of ephedra may include severe skin reactions, irritability, nervousness, dizziness, trembling, headache, insomnia, profuse perspiration, dehydration, itchy scalp and skin, vomiting, hyperthermia, irregular heartbeat, seizures, heart attack, stroke, or death.

Shining with brilliance in the dusty corner of the room was a grandmother's old lamp.

"It is exquisite MeeMee," the young bride-to be said as her eyes twinkled with delight.

"We hand carried it from Austria just before the war broke out."

Sheesh, I've moved so many times in my life, I could write a how-to book.

I suppose by default I've become quite the expert on moving.

Now as fate would have it, I find myself gearing up for another move.

The shipping boxes have not been packed yet, but that will come soon enough. For right now I'm simply trying to mentally place and merge the furniture and household goods that I wouldn't want to part with in an already fully furnished home.

This should be fun! Haha!

I'll be one happy camper when the transition is complete and everything is nice and neat and I can concentrate on my new husband and all which that will entail, plus of course my writing and my business. Yep I'll be a happy camper or perhaps I should say one happy but busy, busy camper!

While I would have been thrilled with a cigar band, I'm tickled pink with the engagement ring that sparkles on my left hand. It is absolutely beautiful.

But so much more than the ring or the dress or all the hoopla of the coming nuptials and celebration is the amazing man I'm marrying!

All of the wedding details seem to be falling effortlessly into place. Yesterday I bought my dress. Early this morning I decided on my colors for the wedding.

The big news in my world is that I'm engaged!

I'm delighted with the vision of being married to the man I love, but it is the process of planning the wedding ceremony and reception that leaves me gasping.

As much as I love beautiful, elegant celebrations...my work as a caterer and an event planner has taught me that exquisite, seamless events require meticulous planning, plenty of time and boatloads of green.

"What is a good laptop computer for traveling?" A friend recently asked.

"I hear Sony Vaio notebooks are pretty good." I responded.

"How much do they cost?"

"You can find out prices on the Buy dot com website."

"Great!I like the idea of staying connect to the Internet while I travel."

I sort of have this love/hate thingee going on with SALES and sales training.

Sales... the very lifeblood of a business, and absolutely essential in most cases to the success or failure of a commercial enterprise.

But the bottom line is that this entrepreneur is not a SALES PERSON. The very thought of selling somebody something sends me running for the hills.

Lord help me!

"Grandmother, put on a little lip gloss. You never know who you will meet." I said as my recently widowed grandmother, Lillian and I were about to venture out of the air-conditioned Miami Beach condo and into the Florida sun.

Echoing my words back to me, my grandmother followed my advice.

The exchange was one of those profound ones between a grandmother and her young granddaughter. Oh, I'm sure I didn't feel so young at the time. Afterall I was the ripe old age of about 15, that age when lip gloss seems so important.

"Kathi, your life plays out like a movie..."

If I had a dollar for everytime I've heard this through the years I'd be sitting pretty :)

Of course, I'm not too sure what sort of movie it would be. But one thing I do know, it would be a movie illuminated with the grace of GOD!

My life has often not been easy or picture perfect. I've made choices that were not altogether good ones. But despite all this, God has never left me or abandoned me. He's picked me up, brushed me off and embraced me despite all my brokeness and filled me with the desire to keep trying and little-by-little I get a little closer to becoming the person HE created me to be.

Perhaps everyone's life is a bit like a movie- co-written by a heavenly script that gently allows us the opportunity to make a few mistakes here and there. Sometimes it is the mistakes that makes the story so compelling.

In my heart of hearts,I've always believed that a true love would love you regardless of whether you were svelte or not, and that the inner person that dwells within was far more important than the more superficial outer being.

Within varying degrees, we can all look pretty good. Take a gift box, wrap it up in beautiful papers and bows and with just the right craftsmanship, the box can look pretty enticing.

But isn't the substance within that box (or that person) what is really important? Should it matter whether we are svelte or not?

For me, I prefer to be chosen for the qualities that make me, ME ... and certainly not because I look good, or because I wear a certain size or because I feed some man's ego.

On the other hand, I do want to look good, feel good and dare I say, (LOVE GOOD,
TOO!) So therefore inlight of this, I welcome the opportunity to review the merits of the diet pill.

How do sinks sound?

Splash, splash splash!

Reminds me of a birthday card I happened upon in January, while shopping for the perfect birthday card for a special friend.

If you are anything like I am- not any card will do, you have to find the PERFECT card for the occasion.

The card I found was of a cruise ship and the question posed was... How does a Carribean Cruise sound?

The answer... Splash, Splash, Splash! Follow my blogs and who knows maybe you'll discover the rest of the story.

Sitting on the shelf of an old display case in an antique shop I spotted a sparkling beauty.

Was it a diamond or simply a cubic zirconia? Even though I longed to take a closer look, for reasons all my own, I chose not.

Perhaps I'll revisit this shop on another day. Will the ring still be there?

Will it be as dazzling up close as it was in passing?

Ah, the white flash and divine symbolism of engagement rings and the hope that they offer ... the helping hand, the loving heart, the poignant embrace that births a brand new purpose between two souls united. yet somehow shrouded in a divine mystery filled with the magnificance of great hopes and dreams, eager to be manifested.

A popular Irish saying goes something like, "If beef's the King of Meat, then potatoes are the Queen of the Garden World."

On this cold and blustery day, March 1 2009, my thoughts turn to rich, deep and satisfying fares...

Beef roasts slow roasted by fire with potatoes, carrots, perhaps a turnip or two. Splash in a pint of your favorite brew for an easy braise and don't be surprised later when you hear the sweet sound of gratitude and praise. cattle supplies
