Good Day Everyone; I am sitting here thinking what exactly should I write since its been a while since I have written anything. Well I decided to go outside and gaze at the flowers,plants and trees we have, mostly all grew by my eldest stepson( a true greenthumb he might think otherwise ) but I admire that about him,anyway I was talking to him as he came outside to ask me if I was enjoying myself and I said yes but I am hopeless in knowing names of plants. I really do enjoy the green of New Zealand, oh and another thing my eldest stepson is planting some new grass that looks very good and feels good to the foot. God Bless New Zealand.
Yesterday we went to Thames, New Zealand as Jasmine was going in for her brown belt which she said wasn't her favourite color lol but She did achieve the belt in Kia do Ryu and after she received her belt she must wear it 24 hours to supposly get to know her belt which I consider odd but I guess we get to know our boots after we wear them a while anyway well done Jasmine in that accomplisment; you trained hard enough for it.
My wife and I decided to walk around in Thames has they were having a market in Town, similar to our sidewalk sale where people were selling different things from homemade breads,antiques,plants and all other types of stuff, well my wife bought some Marigold plants and I got me a Cactus which will be growing wide.
I haven't done much lately in the Sparkspeople, even though I don't feel I am putting on any weight, I am been sensible about how much I eat and etc better than I was before. I haven't given up on sparkspeople just I am learning to do these things without using it so much.
Some of you know my wife has been staying with her mum lately, but she is back home now and its good to have her back, even though I was just getting used to the whole bed again, even though mum did call Friday night as she was feeling a bit uneasy so I told Delwyn to go and stay with her mum, so she did.
Well I stay home today cause I wasn't feeling all too well after eatting KFC 3 piece yesterday, and it seemed to happen more than once after I have eatten KFC so I won't be eatting that particular meal again.
Some of you might have remembered I started a chatroom up, well I closed it down a few days ago, as I noticed not really much happening in there and some people still chatting elsewhere when they could have been chatting there, so I thought about it and plus they wanted to charge me for certain apps or gadgets that I was using so I just thought whatever and just closed it down. I apologize for not telling everyone before I did but its happened so thats that. I can recommend a few chatrooms and boards if you are interested.
I have been doing alot of reading from other blogs from talking about //The Manhattan Declaration,//11 arguments for Limited Atonement, Alien Immersion and the Baptist Church and etc. Going to read some of them again.
In my Prayer & Praise Report. Continual prayer and prayer request(s)
1. The MacDonald Family and their trip to USA Pray that they have a safe & pleasant stay in USA, you can read more about that in my blog right hand side * click on Aria( the cutest thing on my blogpage)
2. Samantha & Tammy's dad in the hospital, pray that he has a full recovery.
3. Jim & Pat Jones ~ Pray that Jim has a quick and full recovery so he can return home.

5. Continue to pray for my mothernlaw as she recovers to her best of health.
6. continue to pray for my family in the things they are archieving in life, I am proud of each and everyone of them.
7.and many more that I cannot think of off the top of my head right now but God knows. Praise Report(s)

My Thursdays Post
Howdy/Kia Ora Well I notice I made a mistake on last nights post - it wasn't for my Thursday but Wednesday, anyway heres my Thursdays post. Well I was woken up this morning by a knock on my bedroom door by my oldest stepson(young man), I got up to answer it and only to find a cat on the inside, how did the cat get in my room when the door is lock and where did it hide when I went to bed last night and me being partially deaf in both ears and had my hearing aids out the poor thing must have meowed up a storm hahahaha. Anyway I said you crazy cat what on tarnation you doing in here Ms Fluffy, she just meowed back with the expression she was ready to eat.
Anyway I let her out and crashed back on the bed only to tell myself I should really get up and have breakfast and watch Biggest Loser couple. It was another tear jerker, that voting people off stuff is rough I am glad I am not in their shoes even though I thought they should have voted off someone other than whom they chose.
In the middle of watching it my wife called and told me she had an errand for anyone to run if possible she was thinking maybe one of the others could do it, and I said well I can do it I suppose, not sure where this person lives well I thought I didn't but then it came to my memory they lived in a house that our past friends lived in which isn't far about an 1/2 mile if not less, so I said to my wife - " I'll do it" after the show is over, so after the show I got my sandles on, and took off out the door, plus the others wasn't home to do it anyway and I thought this is better to do sooner then later and I can get some walking done.
So I started down the sidewalk/footpath and walked a block and passed the store thinking I used to love to go there and get some chocolate and soda ( oooooo ) after a few seconds I thought Nope I am not going to do it and continued on my journey to delivery this check to a very special young lady and her family that desperatly needs much prayers and support. More about this you can go to aria.org.nz/ , anyway I walked a bit and I had this thought why don't I sortive try to jog, I battled with myself I would look silly who am I kidding me jog hahaha I could see myself from someones car Look at that funny looking dude jogging, then I said to myself Oh what the heck who cares what they think and they might not think nothing at all Shut up and jog lol So I jogged a little bit then walked then jogged a little then walked and sure enough I forget what I was doing and passed the place up and had to back track, so I went up to the place and knocked on the door and the mother came to the door and I said My wife wanted me to deliver this too you and she thanked me and I started out walking again, then jogged then on my way back to my place as I could see the driveway I thought hmmm should I go on past and walk on to town or go back in the house and chat with friends, I got up to the driveway and looked down it and pondered No I think I will walk on to town got me a Pepsi Max in a can and headed back home, Has anyone tried drinking Pepsi Max and puffed out well I did and thought this is nasty can of Pepsi Max and it seemed to be hot I am sure it was me taking the coldness from the can lol
Anyway got back home chatted with my friend from Virginia and another friend from Tennesse, talked about my chat & board room. and made my lunch then watched some tv, then told my friend who was waiting til I get back from watching tv, I did that got back on chatted a little and felt very tired so I told him mate I am sorry but I am just flat out tired, so I told the other when they got back I was going to lay down that was about 3:30pm then I went and laid down and looked at some of my health magazine hoping I would just wake up but the next thing I know my wife came in woke me up and I had the magazine on my chest that was 5:15pm I was like wow that was a nap, she laid there some and we cuddle which was nice, I sure needed that, then she said what do you fancy for Dinner and I said Not fussed, I didn't help her I feel guilty about that now, anyway Dinner was very nice, I ate it slow and tried not to rush it but I was hungry, then afterwards I took the plates away and told her how about some coffee and she said thank you that would be nice so I made us some coffee and served up some weightwatchers blackberry jell-o / jelly ( not the kind you put on toast ) which was nice as well, watched some TV together holding hands. emoticon emoticon Shes gonna kill me now after she reads this lol So yall pray for me hehehe.
Anyway later she got her stuff together and I grabbed some things for her then held her in my arms and told her the good stuff and how much I love her and give her mum my blessings. She apologized about the situration and I said not too that I understand, it is hard but I do understand. Then she left. I watched Army wives and thought how sad it was that the couple getting a divorce and the woman said something about she thought her husband would tear up the divorce papers and all this be settled, and then I said outloud WHY didn't SHE tear hers up even though she was the one that cheated on Him, anyway as my wife would say "ITS IN THE SCRIPT" lol Sad about people being married so long then divorce over things, I can't say I know what they are going through thats has to be one hell of a thing to go through and being alone... But then sometimes things do happen,, anyway enough said about that.
Well I forgot all about it but my wife told me I got a regular doctor appointment tomorrow, so I might miss Biggest Loser tomorrow ( blah ) emoticon.
SO now I am writing this and its just over midnight so maybe thats what happened last night when I wrote it, staying up too late when I am writing it but its the best time I can think.
Anyway thats all for now I hope everyone has a good nights sleep and if your in America I hope you have a Wonderful and Exciting Day and Blessings come your way, if Not Hang in there the Sun will shine again!!
Until Next time ~ BIll emoticon

Howdy everyone; Its been quite a busy day today, I got up late(blah). Had
breakfast watched the biggest loser, watched how some couples got
divided and now some couples are against each other, man that has
got to be hard cause most of the show they been leaning on one
another, they sure know how to twist it around and make it more
interesting. Then I decided I was gonna do the dishes and put them
in the dishwasher and wash the other things that needed it like
pots and pans, then I put clothes on to wash and hung them on the
line even though it spit/sprinkle and they didn't get completely
dry so I ran them through the dryer, did about 3 loads, then
afterwards I got the ironing board out and iron heaps of stuff
that needed ironing and I thought to myself why not you know this
burn calories so this went on from lunch time to about 6 o'clock,
got more to do tomorrow, if it had been sunny tomorrow I had other
plans but its not going to be according to the weather forecast,
oh well I will do other things. my feet and legs are aching but I
will press on. A & J (oldest stepson and fiancée') invited me to
go with them to war museum and to the botanical garden, but I said
maybe another time, I felt they should enjoy their time alone and
plus I could enjoy some workout and me time lol.
Also the youngest stepson B come and talked with me while I was
hanging clothes about his studies he doing in Business Accountant
and etc, He said there's heaps of reading, he was taking a small
time out, later he asked if I wanted to and I could whenever use
his boxing bag and gloves, so will take him up on that offer
sometimes. Sometimes I think they might think I am rude turning
them down but that's not my intention, sometimes its just not the
right time or I got too much on the brain, but they are all great
supporters in their own special way.
Well I got heaps of things from friends on facebook that helps
gets me through the day or makes me smile, funny but wonderful how
we can do that even Miles around the world and some friends you
just meet on the internet that are genuine, I sure appreciate
them. Also getting to know more family people on my mom's side of
the family that I never knew I had or never knew of them until now
and I am blessed to have them, more family to share the love with.
I am blessed also with cousins on my dad's side that we have sorta
come back together and share and I am certainly blessed there
cause I thought I had lost them due to stuff but that's all in
God's hand and I give Him all the glory for it, I am blessed to
have family that's still keeping in contact even from the other
side of the world, ok I am sounding soft now but I love them all
the same.
Ok last but certainly not the least all the Sparkpeople friends
that I have made here, You guys are the best team a person could
ask for!!! We all have the same type goals, I wish you the best in
yours!!! We can & will do this !!!! Pat on the Back to you all !!
Well Another night without my lovely wife and best supporter,
please keep her mom in your thoughts and prayers. Until next time ! ~Bill

Tuesday's post
Howdy Friends; Well I took my wife to work this morning and on the way back I went around one of the roundabouts in our town and it had been raining and I did a little sliding but nothing major that I couldn't control. I did some reading and watch Biggest Loser Australia and the first time seeing a woman who calls herself Emazon I believe, she looked rough, I wouldn't want to cross her lol.
I made me a salad while commercial break adding Couscous ( first time I ever tried it) and I loved it, I even told my stepson " You didn't hear me say this but this salad with Couscous in it is better than a steak" He chuckled and told friends on facebook about it and some said yeah they liked too. So here to a new thing for me this week; now a little excited to find out what I can find that I normaly don't eat, if you have any suggestions.
Time flew by as I read blogs and chatted with friends and time to pick up my wife from the train station, so I went early in the van and decided to go back to the library, return recent books and get some more out.
I then went to one of the reasonable store and got me a little foot cusion thats like a box that you can put you magazines in, I thought how clever so I dumped my Bible,devotions,healthy eatting and Men's Health magazine inside it, so when I am not on the computer and sitting in my lazyboy chair if one of the cats didn't steal it first LOL, I can read them during commercials lol.
Anyway Thats pretty much sums up my day it has been a good one and I look forward to another one tomorrow.
Until next time ~Bill

Hi Friends; Hope everyone is doing well and not giving up the battle of a healther lifestyle, I know I been goofing off , eatting the bad stuff again. Chocolate, oreos and whatever, I know I will regret some of it but I haven't given up just lately I have been a bit argrivated with things and depressed. The aggrivation is my own fault as I let things get to me. I am one of these people that is not good with words and I let things build up then I snap, then I either snap at a person which I hate the most, or I overload myself with work to just well you know use the anger in a postive way.. and three I am an emotional eatter. Well yesterday it was the overload myself with work, cause I am so aggrivated about a lot of things but don't feel I can talk about them, cause I will upset people or just make things worse for myself.
And today I am just plain eatting oreos almost finishing them off (2 pack carton) and drinking a pot of coffee. I keep telling myself I can do better than this but I don't, I know some of you might think why don't I move myself from the situration; I will tell you now its not that easy.
I want to plan my meals ahead of time and prepare them ahead of time but thats hard for me too.
I feel like just giving all this up but I don't want too cause I know if I do I will just get worse and not better.
Anyway I am going to plan my days out in the future and try to stick by them. Sorry this blog is all over the place, but if there are others out there feeling the same way or understands what I am saying and feel like giving up I encourage you not too give up but hang in there and take small steps, even if you read health related articles you are educating yourself even if you don't walk you walk today or do the fitness but you are excersising your brain. Until next time ~ Bill

Finally Friday
Hi Friends; I went to the doctor today and showed him my Sparkpeople menu that I have been eatting and the fitness I been doing, He said well you doing good and he couldn't see why I couldn't keep doing it. Also spoke to him about my depression and he has referred me to a Physicatrist. But other than that all has been good today. Thats it for today ~ maybe longer next time. ~Bill
