Canned Bacon Yum!!!! Don't you think so? I can not even begin to imagine why not. But believe it or not I did watched a video on how to do this. One of my late night prepper excursions. Heard of them crazy preppers yet? No ? Google it! Have fun!!! I'll post on prepping later or sooner or later...like maybe some day. But for now just know YOU can CAN BACON!!!!!! Also when the crap hits the fan as the preppers like to say ...the bacon may or may not be located at my house. I'd say not till I get a pressure cooker and some money to buy that bacon by the pound at the meat market! Got to thinking what my 3 favorite things would be to stockpile you know just in case. Not anything that would make sence exactly. Just my comfort gotta have things. Don't worry I have already freaked out and started stock piling Grace's insulin. Thank you very much patriot nurse. Yes you can google her too. She is a spit fire and right on the mark most of the time; in a wacked kind of way!!!
So back to the topic. WHAT IS THE TOPIC?....Oh yes...my top 3 gotta haves.
3. Bacon
2. CHOCOLATE
1. Toilet paper! Duh!!!!
What is your top 3? Let me know?....Also what does the Bible say about this prepper stuff? Anybody know? Go look! Yes you! Go!!!! I finally figured out how to respond back to your messages so message away!
1 John 2:5-6 But if anyone obeys his word, God's love is truely made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him: Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did...My walk may not look like your walk, but we can still walk together...Come walk with me...

A New Routine
I have been pondering for a couple of weeks on designing myself a new workout. This is not my cardio workout but more so my strength training one. I have been under the weather for a while...way UNDER the weather but thankfully just ABOVE pushing up daisies!!! This is workout number 3 for me. The first was wild, crazy, and made me puke! I soon decided about week 3 that it sucked and I was done with that. So I slowly evolved into workout number 2 after some in home instructions and guidance from my Mr. Trainer Extraordinaire. So workout number two has served its purpose and it is a keeper. However, I just want to add some other things in that I think have been missing. This is currently not trainer approved...apparently he can't work his new phone yet and hasn't located his computer recently. Anyways here is my disclaimer; I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE for ANY INJURIES!!!!!!! YOU yes YOU ARE! So listen to you body!
At some point I will back up and add in workout number 2 but for now here is number 3. Which is really the one you should begin with to begin with! Know what I mean??? If not you are not alone. How about a nice ...START HERE!!! Well then again you decide. This one is more standing and sitting in a chair as apposed to sitting and laying in the floor. Sorry for any confusion!!! I am so new to this.
Exercises for Balance, Flexibility and Strength...designed with the 200 lb + groupies in mind. But generally for anyone. Oh and lets get this clear....The names of these exercises may not be the same for everybody everywhere. I learned that right from the start which drove me nuts while looking online for NAMES of moves and exercises and such....Oh and this is the shortened version. I have my own number of sets and reps listed as well as what muscle groups are being worked. I did not include those. Sorry...but each person is their own person and has their own abilities and if I list mine then you may try to copy it and could get hurt...SO LISTEN to your own body!!!
Now.....all that said:
Pray
Towel Stretch
Wall Lean
Wall Push-ups
Thigh Stretch
Toe Points
One-Legged Stance
Hip Flexion
Heel Toe Gait ( drunk man's walk )
Military Press
Lateral Raises ( arms )
Upright Row
Toe Stands
Hip Extensions
Lateral Leg Raises
Seated Curls
Knee/ Leg Extensions
(one the floor) Groin stretch ( yes it is funny...but don't go there)
Full Body Stretch ( on back )
Sit or just continue to snooze on ya back....for more prayer
and Finally Relax and Meditate.....Thank God for your Health and Body
Imagine Fat MELTING off of you...Smile!
Do it all over again.....tomorrow!!!!
Only took me about 25 minutes...so I added part of Workout #2 for an additional 5 minutes. Little OCD issue and I was not stopping at 25 minutes. Goodness that is an ODD number...NO WAY!!! Although I did bike for 37 minutes this morning...only cause I can't do math real well while trying to peddle at the same time! And for sure adding gum would have killed me!
As you can see it bores me to tears to just work one muscle group...so I tried to work everything at least a bit. And so we are on the up and up...my lower back and calves are aching a bit...So my muscles got worked!!! At this point I am in build and strengthen mode as opposed to the beginning where I was in the JUST MOVE mode. Let me know what ya think? Thoughts welcome!!!

Where are ALL the Perfect Christians?
Where oh where are ALL the perfect Christian's? Where is my perfect Christian life?If you are perfect...please stand up!!! Go on you seem to have to have it all and have it all together. You're perfect aren't ya? That's right ...me neither! And today was not a perfect day. And this not so perfect christian blew her blooming top off. Yes I do have a bit of a temper. Self control is one of the fruits I struggle with. Like to have squeezed that little booger till it's head popped off today! Actually no squeezing involved just a nice swat to the head with Jasper's shoe!!! No children where harmed or involved in this momentary lapse of perfectness. Just one of Jasper's shoes... Ok Ok I'd have to add telling lies to the list of my not so perfectness if I said they were not involved or harmed in some way....they live here and have me as there MOM. Some days I wonder what God must have been thinking when he made me and gave me my blessings. Actually most days I wonder WHAT is HE thinking!!!!
So let me be clear this sinner saved by grace is no perfect nothing. Well perfect in the respect that most of us will think of as perfect. Good thing is I am and always will be the apple of HIS eye! Today I'm a bit too ripe and have a few too many sun spots on me...bordering on slightly rotten. Stress does really horrible things to otherwise very sensible people. As some of you know ...we are a NO income family at the moment...and I am stressing. Does stressing and worry mean I have no faith. Really I think NOT! NO because if we thought.."oh well no worry...God's got this...I'll just keep on keeping on." Then we would never ever turn to him. I would never pray and I would never read and I would never seek HIM. Take that as you will...Some of you will take it the wrong way. For sure I know where I am going. That is not the issue. Well I could turn from that and make a different choice. We do have free will and a choice. Let's be clear I choose GOD. It's my choice....but that does not mean I am perfect and have no worries and should not worry. That's just crazy talk when Christians portray themselves as perfect and having no worries. I feel pretty confident that a certain amount of healthy worry brings about good changes that occur only as a result of some very stressful days.
I am aware that Jesus tells us NOT to worry...So could I have this all wrong...you bet! But the worry I am referring too I liken too the sorrow and anguish kind of worry that Jesus may have felt as he prayed. I mean if you are sweating blood ...I'd say there is a bit of stress! Sorry but yes when other people or circumstances take me off the path I feel the Father has hand picked and planned for me; I'm a gonna worry worry worry till I am back to where I know HE wants me to be...And here in this mess is not of HIS design. Yes I could have that all wrong I could I could...after all I am just an imperfect Christian.
But hey I do know this...Don't get in my face and tell me to shut up. I just may go all unsouthern lady like and take Jasper's shoe after you. Sorta like ya Momma and Daddy use to do when ya did something real wrong and they took a switch after you...that they made you go get. One that if it was not big enough they went and traded it in for a TREE LIMB!!! Seriously if Momma and Daddy or Granny in my case never ever worried how we were going to "turn" out...if they knew, "hey God's got this;" would they have ever bothered to tear ya leg up with that switch? No...it's because they were WORRIED...that you just might grow up and be...Oh word...one of those imperfect heatherns...or worse an imperfect Christian!
(Click on the title and I posted a song for ya...go ahead...just do it!)
