Are You A Turkey Or A Weaner?

So lately I have been trying to eat more healthy. I have stopped drinking the love of my life (DR. PEPPER). I have been trying to not eat deep fried food and eat more salads and vegetables. This is partly to be more healthy and also to shed a few lbs. for the bike ride. In the whole process I have learned a lot about myself.

So I ask all of you Are You A Turkey Or A Weaner?

I have learned that I am a Turkey!! So you might be confused about what I mean. Are you someone that when cutting things out of your life you do better if you do it cold turkey, or if you wean yourself off of it. With most things I have to stop cold turkey or I don't stop. So many times I have tried to stop drinking Dr. Pepper and if I have any I will have as much as I want. I know it is all about self control, but that is just how I am. People have always told me it is better to wean your body off and on things like treats, drinks, exercise.... but I don't work that way. Needless to say I am doing well on Dr. Pepper, better on treats and ice cream and better on exercise. It's all about Turkey baby!!!

Seven Pounds

Last night I went to the Flash game and sat front row. I would not have bought tickets, but it was nice to get out and who can complain about front row tickets. Anyway after the game I watched a portion of the movie Seven Pounds. I didn't make it through it last night so this morning as I was getting ready I turned it on and finished it. I don't know how I was expecting it to end, but it was nothing like I thought it was. Anyway at the end of it I was sobbing. There were tears streaming down my face and I was trying to hold my mascara in one hand. I am glad I had not started to put it on. Needless to say it was a great movie.

Colors Festival

COLORS FESTIVAL

I went to the Sri Sri Radha Krishna Temple "Color Festival" on Saturday. It is out in Spanish Fork/Salem and happens once a year. Each year there were so more and more people. Somebody lit the bomb fire a little early this year, so people started to throw the color before it actually started. Anyway it still was an awesome site to see.
Although I actually look relatively clean and color free in this picture I am not. I have a whole bag of yellow color on the top of my head.
Despite all the traffic and people it was still really fun! I love to be in crowds and people watch. So that was interesting.

Kids say the darnest things...

I love my niece and nephew. They crack me up every time I am around them. They are just so pure and honest and so I get a kick out of the things they say. Whether it be how I got the owie on my face (a zit), or how I was hurt when I am crying (although I am usually not crying from being physically hurt). So today I went up and rode inside on the trainers with Emily. The kids were upstairs and we popped in a Race DVD. I don' t know what I was thinking that I was in any shape for a any sort of race, but it was nice to have someone motivate us along the way (even if I wasn't going as fast he was). Anyway after 60 minutes of riding inside I was pretty sweaty. I am cooling down and sitting on the floor when Kennedy comes over and starts talking to me. We are just having friendly chat about her bird, and what her shirt says. She then sniffs, and says Lacy you stink, you should go home and shower in your own shower. WOW- thanks Kennedy. I mean I knew I was stinky, but when she told me I knew it was bad. So I showered up at Andy and Em's before driving back to my own house. Kids say the darnest things and I love them for it.
