Happy Friday....

Friday, July 13, 2012

Good Friday Sparkfam!! It's a rainy Friday here in Chicago but I did want to go to the Taste of Chicago. This is for the sake of my hubs. I don't taste much except McDonald Fries & these Cajun Cheese Fries & I'm done. lol

I am good after my fall but it was probably more a metaphor for my mind than for my body. Definitely brought me back to earth as I was getting full of myself. How? Long story just believe me when I tell you this was happening to me. lol

I got some great workouts in this week but today, I slept til almost 9am & then I wanted to take a vacation day. No I didn't do it I came in late but all is forgiven as I am still here & not a breathing soul is here with me. lol So are you working or hardly working? I'm trying to mix it up but sometimes it ain't easy getting all that done & still be energized. UGH!!



Thought that this quote from Spark Motivational would spark you guys to be motivated. It's motivating me. lol So are YOU!!


God bless Sparkfam!!

    WooHoo! Happy Tuesday the 17th! I'm always late but I like this blog I'm so glad to have my page back I don't know what to do first lol. That's a neat photo from Spark I don't think I've seen it before. I'm making an effort to DO my workouts when I think about them. If I wait too long I'll be dragging & I don't like doing that. Thanks for keeping us motivated to move our bodies. They have a Taste of here at different cities down here. I've never been to one. Well sis you have a BEAUTIFUL week & Keep On Pushing!

    Dee - it is good to know that you are recovering so well. I also avoid the Taste, only because I think it is really gross to be standing around with a million other sweaty people eating food that has been sitting out all day.

But I do kind of agree with GrannyQuinn below. I like Greek Fest. There isn't a whole lot for me to eat at that fest because I'm a vegetarian, but I really just like the vibe. And the Metaxa.

And THANK YOU again for all the wonderful comments you've been leaving me! emoticon

    I had Chile Rellenos last night, ooh so good, but I was good all week and managed for the first time to exercise for an 1 every day. I alternated walking, stationary bike, and zumba. I do know like you that it can be hard to motivate myself. But you are doing it!

    I am glad to here you are recovering, Taste, I am on the fence with that one. I love to go but, I am saving energy for the Greek Fest and I wonder if they are having the Gospel Fest this year? That is one of the Festivals that I have not attended yet. So much has changed, I can always attend The House of Blues for Their Gospel Brunch if they do not have this year. You are more than welcome to join me. Thank God for the Rain!!! It felt so good!!! Hugs to you -Dee- Karen

    Did you manage to avoid the storms that came through! We had some great lightning and downpours up here in Lake Forest!
