Glutton for Punishment

I did it. I can't help it. I have no will power. Right now, I don't even feel guilty about it because it was so tasty. What am I talking about?... McDonald's, and my lack of control when its comes to a cheeseburger and fries. Ever since I was little and I am talking 2 -years-old little, I have loved McDonald's. It's not like I ate there a lot when I was a kid. Usually it was a special treat to go. Of course, when I became a teen and took a job working at a movie theatre those special treats became a weekly thing. As an adult, I can no longer do weekly treats but I still have these spurts of going for a few times before I make myself feel bad. I know the stuff isn't good for me and I really should give it up but I can't help myself! I have seen that movie, yet the taste of salty french fries and a gooey, warm cheeseburger is engrained in my head. It's so dang good. I think those McDonald's people put crack in those burgers and fries. Because I can go a long time without some and then all the sudden I make a drive-thru visit and wham, I am hooked and I have to go five times before I get it out of my system. I even changed my route home from work to avoid seeing the golden arches. But alas, those arches are everywhere! I recently found one on my new route and I made the mistake of stopping and now if I work late and I am starving those arches look even better! Darn it!! Darn those arches! Well, I have gone and done it again tonight. My thighs will just have to forgive me. I will try again. Let's see how long it is to my next visit? Is there a 12-step program for getting off McDonald's? Cuz, I need one.

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

7th Birthday

Mark ur calendars, Dec 12 is an awesome day to go to Disneyland! There was no one at the park yesterday morning. We had 3 amazing hours 8am to 11am to ride! Some Disneyland records we set yesterday:  ✅A After many years, we finally got a wristband (and bought) a giant Disneyland candy cane.  ✅F First people on pirates of the carribean.  ✅ Line for Indiana Jones was 10 minutes long  😳  This never happens and we sat next to the people (strangers) who sat next to us on pirates b ut we did not walk over to the ride with them. ✅ By a fluke, we were also the first people on Big Thunder Mountain and kiddo rode in the cart by herself! (They opened late and we were in the right spot) ✅Kiddo  rode front seat on Matterhorn because a kind guy, his first visit, said he was too tall to sit in front and she wouldn’t be able to see sitting behind him ✅ Prode space mountain for the first time and huffed that it wasn’t scary and it was no IncrediCoaster. And the line...
