I Hope I Can Keep This Up

I haven't been on my blog for a while, I know, I know, terrible of me.  Unfortunately I'm suffering from a really bad case of allergies again this year and the eczema has tried to pop it's nasty little head again but I managed to get it under control within a few days by using my handy dandy Red LED Light treatments.  I am so glad I discovered it, if you haven't read my previous blogs on the Red LED Light treatments and you are interested please refer to my older posts.  I wouldn't know what to do without it!  In deep do-do probably.

I'm back on the fitness kick.  I'm such a yo-yo, not dieter, but when it comes to working out and keeping in shape.  I'll start something get really pumped up and then the excitement fizzles and I'm back to lounging around reading and basically doing nothing.  I love reading there's no way I'm stopping that but I need to be more physically active.  This isn't good for me or for anybody.  This time I'm really back though.  I've been finding ways to motivate myself every day whether through inspiring pictures, quotes or music, every day I'm searching for inspiration to keep me on track.  It's a daily struggle but I'm going to keep at it.  Woohoo!!!

A Murder In My Past

You couldn't believe my surprise when while surfing the web I found something...a portion of a court transcript.  A case that is a part of my past.  A past I don't recall, a murder of a woman I don't remember but related to by blood....

It's strange to see it in print.  Of course I've heard the stories and rumors but to see it in black and white for the whole world to see gives it a very surreal feeling...  I wonder now how she must have felt.  A tiny little thing.  She couldn't protect herself from the violence visited on her.  The children she left behind.  Some of whom have at least some memory of her, a smile, a look...  Some who can't recall her at all no matter how hard they try.  I've attached what I've found I've blacked out names and dates to protect the families, my family...
