March 16, 2012 I joinedSP! 7 years!SO much healthier! Where are my inactive friends? I will add MANY

3-11-19 I have been Sparking EVERYDAY since 3-16-12! 7 years!!!I LOVE SP land!!!! My life is SO much healthier because of the amazing, continual concepts I learn from our founder Chris Downie! !!

1 thing I can not understand is WHY people leave. I KNOW life gets busy & active & so much going on, that is 1 of the things Chris teaches, become more active. BUT, for a free, health site, seems odd to me! I have been going through my SP 'friends" list & going to each 1. IF they haven't Sparked in over a year or more, I delete them. I DO understand many people are sparking from their phones & not as many options from there. So when I go to their S Page, I look under latest trophies. IF they are still sparking I contact them to see if they still want to be friends. IF I don't hear from them, I delete from my Spark page AND my SP email contact list. I am about 1/2 way through. Yes! This has taken hours, but I felt it is time to 'tidy' up my contacts, so when I DO want to email or? The list is current. I've gone from 700 to about 400 & still have allot to do. It would be SO easy if SP could delete members who are inactive after say 1,000 days. BUT the problem with that is, MANY people go away & come back, knowing we are here for them. So I will continue to do it my way, works for me & that's what it is all about, right?

Thank you for being apart of my life! If I inspire YOU & you want to be SP friends, add me. I will help you when I can! I won't be adding so many people in the future, just one's that inspire ME! THX for reading!

4-9-19 I've been working ALL morning & have more to do on the computer! The wind is fierce!!!!! 21 MPH, right now! No chance to take LUCY for her walk! Pretty spring day, though. 89 degrees!

4-11-19 Welcome to Thursday! It's been SO windy, 36MPH I haven't been able to walk our dog, LUCY But seems to be easing up, so I'm off to it for her! I've been getting my walking in, inside shopping,





4-12-19 LUCY got her walk, several times! She is SO darling! (she is a rescue & about 14 yrs. old! Our baby!) I took her to Vet for shots & took some photos! Yesterday we walked by the elementary school & they were doing a relay race. ALL different activities . We walked & watched & enjoyed the fun & energy! Tomorrow I am going to our local county fair. Lot's of walking! Plan on bringing my lunch , no fried butter for me, lol, yuck! Happy Friday everyone! Hope it is FABULOUS for you!




About my world today: 4-14-19 My BIG highlight yesterday was walking at the County Fair for 4 hours! It was REALLY fun. I loved seeing the animals & flowers! I don't go every year, but glad I did! Didn't get tired, either. BUT the biggest thing was I did not eat or be even inspired to eat Fair food! I look at all the offerings, then bought a turkey leg (ate 1/2) & frozen banana! & lot's of YEAH for me because of YOU!
TODAY I've been doing 6 loads of laundry, (I only do it every other week, THX to FLASUN I have lot's of clothes, LOL) Cleaned bathrooms, etc. Getting ready to walk sweet Lucy. It was 68 yesterday & 86 today! WOW!!!! I'm still hoping for Spring, NOT summer!




4-15-19 Today, after work, I took courage in hand & went to the Gym, after healing knee! (It's been 255 days ago!) BUT I did it! Yeah for me!!!!!! I only played for 30 minutes..... but what fun I had! Just being VERY careful! Elliptical, stomach press, knee presses, biking etc. Just plain fun! I'll see how I feel tomorrow. I HAVE been walking ALLOT & Pilates, but different mussels! Plus seeing people there of all ages, getting their groove on!




4-17-19 "If you’re not thinking about a negative thought, your vibration is going to raise to its natural positive place." quote by Abraham-Hicks. (I love this teaching!) Good ((((((((vibes))))))))) to everyone! Happy middle of the week day!!!! I picked Honeysuckle for my desk this morning! SO pretty! Spring IS here!



4-18-19 So yesterday, I was bidding on an auction for a purse I REALLY wanted. (White with hand painted peacocks on it, VERY expensive, new.) It came down to 24 minutes & someone else, out bid me, So I upped my price & watched until it came down to 16 minutes. I realized I was getting VERY stressed out, about watching the seconds go by. So I decided to do SP Nicole's seated 12 minute core workout , instead. It worked!!!! Instead of eating I exercised! Felt GREAT!!!! PLUS, I won the purse at a lower price! I realize this is a little thing, BUT SP has made such a difference for me, it is automatic now to think of my health, not a moments desire.



4-19-19 I'm performing tomorrow at a Children's festival. I will be walking my marionettes around & just saying hi! For the Nature Preserve. Kinda like PR on strings!!! Should be lot's of fun! Then on Easter DH & I are having a little BBQ for us & his sister & nephew. Easy, GREAT, healthy foods! Have a great weekend everyone! Happy holidays!



4-20-19 I'm off to perform!

This is JAMII BERRY! We made her about 1969!



4-22-19 Happy Earth day! I did SO much this past weekend, today is a total rest day, well, except for walking Lucy & working. MANY hours of performing & cleaning for BBQ, (it was WONDERFUL & healthy!) I KNOW you all remember to take care of our Mother Earth, & thank you for that!!!!!

4-27-19 Just back from a 3.5 hour hike, a Nature Preserve about 4 miles. It was getting warm as I was leaving. 96 degrees! I was VERY prepared, hat, sunscreen, water veggies, etc. Just beautiful! Hope you are all doing good, too! Healing, happy & healthy





4-29-19 2,600 days of SP EVERY day! It works for me!!!!! Also, down 2#!!!! 21 to go back to goal! I CAN do it because I am!!!! Baby steps make it happen for me! All the support I receive AND give in SparkLand makes it ALL worth it! No language can describe HOW wonderful this site & YOU are!
