What to do...It's July already!

So I'm thinking...There is plenty of time...Plenty of time for WHAT? The days just keep crashing into one another. So there may not be plenty of time. Better make the most of each moment. A friend said to me the other day "No one ever says 'I wish I would have worked more hours' when they are laying on their death bed." Food for thought! Of course one has to work, one has responsibilities that have to be met. But it is very important to Balance it all. There are some things you just can't change so just accept them: #1.The Real Estate Market is SLOW. You can't change that, but it doesn't mean you should compromise your ethics or values. Hold on to those and you won't have to regret it when you are laying on that death bed. #2. You can't choose your work associates. And you can't change them. Accept people as they are and live with it! Everyone has a right to be who they are. #3. You can't change your friends but you can choose your friends so choose wisley! #4. You can't change the past, You don't know what the futre brings, so Live each moment. There may be plenty of time....But Maybe NOT...

Spectacular Things are Afoote (at Pennypickle's)

So it has been a while since I blogged. Because I can hardly keep up with facebooking! Real Estate and working at Pennypickle's keeps me so busy and my Facebook friends are always posting! How do they find the time?

But I have to say the most Spectacular thing happened at Pennypickle's Workshop! I wish I had a picture to post ... that will come later! The Professor has transformed his old playroom (he used to play in it when he was a child) into the most AMAZING room. It will not be available to the public until the evening of May 14th, but the Temecula City Officials got a special preview last night! It was a great party with hot dogs, pizza sticks, popcorn(with a selection of seasonings from cinnamon to chicken boullion), marshmallow dipping(into caramel and all sorts of stuff)Marshmallow exploding and imploding, fog bubbles, styrofoam melting,tonic water geysers(with mentos and a black light) Glowing rice tricks! and so much more!This is probably not the kind of event City Officials attend very often but it appeared the really enjoyed it. I will post pictures soon. Make your plans to come and see this! If you have never been to Pennypickle's Workshop you will fall in love with it! If you have you will LOVE the new additions! That Professor and his little pal Beaker are always up to something!

Week one is done

So, It's been a week...the 3 day 8 lb diet is really the 3 day 3 lb diet for me...3 days of dieting and then 4 of eating ended in a 3 lb loss. Not too bad really! It was 6 lbs at the end of 3 days but after going back to eating food for 4 days 3 lbs went back on. This could work...Does not feel like a diet...I am not on a diet...Just eating the "special way" for 3 days. I am not sure what the "girls" at Pennypickle's have done with it...I will post when I find out.

Do I want to blog about the Real Estate Market....Short Sales, Foreclosures, HUD repos...NO NO NO....I am hopeful things will get better...Prices are not going up in my opinion...So if someone has cash, it is a Great Market!!!

NOT a New Year's Resolution

Ok, Here is the deal....I am fat..always have been as long as I can remember...Even when I wasn't fat I was "Pleasantly Plump". So making a New Year's Resolution or any kind of Resolution to lose weight is totally setting myself up for disappointment. And besides once you are past 60 it might be time to be resolved to who you are...which I am. But that monster scale has been inching up a little more than I like to see!

So the girls at Pennypickle's decided to go on this miracle "lose 8 pounds in 3 days" diet. Steph brought the diet in. If she loses 8 pounds we won't even be able to see her!

The trick is you diet 3 days a week and eat sensible the rest of the week.

The girls were going to start next Monday. Well if I start on Monday...that means the second day of the diet is "Taco Tuesday!" That will never work! So I started yesterday and low and behold this morning when I weighed I was 4 pounds less than yesterday morning! I'll let you know what tomorrow morning brings!

2010

What will the year 2010 bring? How did the year 2010 get here so quickley? The International Year of Astronomy ended with a Blue Moon. So many people are so glad 2009 is over. Will 2010 be better for them? I hope so!
