 sensitive to that. I just think we have higher priorities and in the future we should be deciding budget expenditures based on data and City goals. That’s what I am asking for, anyway. If we were going to solve the problems for Terwilliger, then we should have decided to solve them, not give it a temporary patch, but again, that is simply my opinion and was not the decision Council ultimately made.

The expansion was a campaign promise by both the Councillor for the Ward and the Mayor, as far as I understand. 

As for Calcium Chloride, I voted against that as well.Your dentist said you need a root canal. What now?

10/31/2013 Honestly it wasn't his fault.We went away this weekend. It was a great opportunity for me to see just how much my lifestyle has changed. I didn't have access to a computer and we were attending a family celebration where I had no control over what would be served. I'm thrilled to say that my thinking has definitely changed. I was very aware of the foods that I did eat, and because they were also foods that I was familiar with, I had a pretty good idea of what the calorie count would be. By my calculations (mentally calculations...oh oh!), I believe that I stayed with in my calorie range quite well. I ate lots of fresh veggies and fruit, yogurts, baked potato, passed on the meat, more because meat just not appeal to me, passed on the desserts, as once again, I don't have a sweet tooth and they really didn't appeal to me, drank lots of water(I took my own water with me, so always had some ready), as I don't drink alcohol that worked out great. I found it very interesting how my first thought before reaching for any food, was....can I afford to eat this today! LOL. I even managed to get some walking in, not as much as I would have liked, but figured the visiting with family that I hadn't seen for years was good mental exercise. We did have a great weekend. Garry's Mom and Dad were there, his brother and SIL came from BC and aunts and uncles from Saskatchewan as well as his sisters from Calgary, and I wowed them!
I was interested to note that the first remark from any of them was "You look fantastic...you look so young!" the weight elimination was secondary. I did some meditating on the "look so young" part and came to the conclusion that it may have more to do with the facts that I have so little stress now in my life and the spiritual journey that I am on has brought me so much more peace and acceptance, my positive outlook on life and refusing to allow negative energy be a part of my life, than with the actual weight elimination. Not to say that the weight elimination doesn't have something to do with it, but it seemed to be of secondary importance to those I talked to. Coming from my husband family, that is big....weight is a much discussed subject with many of them!
I'm thrilled to report that when I weighed in this morning...I have eliminated another pound! Go ME!
I am feeling much more confident that I will not have a hard time of maintaining this lifestyle once I have reached my goal weight. Although it was only a weekend, it was a weekend of no computer access and knowing that it was an automatic response to ask myself "can I afford to eat this today" has been a wonderful boost to my confidence. When we go away now in August to another reunion, we will be gone for 4 full days, no computer access, and again no control over foods served, but I will pack up my own snacks, fruit and water, and I'm set.
Am I excited about what I've learned, you bet!
Did I miss you guys, yep! Was thrilled to read your blogs this morning and see how positive you all are. See you don't really need me to help you see your positives, you are doing so well on your own! I'm a proud Momma! lol.
Hugs,
Wanda
Today Marie's blog inspired me to do my own blog about how my attitude changed to one of success!
Thank you Marie...and here's my essay...don't mark too hard lol.
I was in the same boat as everyone else when I started SP...blaming everything and everyone else for my health and weight issues...my low self esteem too. I had read a book called the "Law of Attraction" by Esther and Jerry Hicks. It talked about how we are really the creators of our own reality. How focusing on all the negatives only brings more negative into our lives and keeps us in a downward cycle. How changing our focus to the positives brings positiveness into our lives and we can begin to create the reality we want and desire. We don't get handed it on a silver platter, we have to work at it. With God's intervention, I found SP's website. At first I was very afraid, I didn't want to attempt another diet...and fail once again! I was tired of feeling like a failure. After about a week of lurking around the site, I realized that it was NOT another diet plan, but rather a lifestyle change. Okay, maybe this was worth another second look. I knew that I wanted to be healthier, I was aware of all the reasons why becoming healthy were so important, I didn't want to live my life any longer as a person who felt so unworthy of even taking up space in the world. So....what was I going to do?
Well...if I'm the creator of my own reality...yuck, I didn't like the reality I was living. If I was going to create the life I wanted, I was going to have to get real! Acknowledging that I am the only person responsible for my actions and reactions was my first step forward into creating my new lifestyle. I WAS RESPONSIBLE for how my life was/is. Now that's a heavy! Life is all about choices, what choices am I going to make. I am not a child anymore dependent on others to guide my choices, I am an adult fully capable of making those choices for myself. Along with making those choices comes the responsibility of accepting the consequences of my choices....another heavy! If I'm the one making the choices, then that means I, not anyone else, am responsible for the outcome. Okay...lets start tracking the nutrition and tracking the fitness....having a visual display for me was and is a key factor in my success. If I wasn't going to make wise choices in my food or exercise, then I wasn't going to see the results I wanted to see. When I wrapped my mind around all these concepts, the path to health became easier. Knowing that everything that I do has a consequence and in order to obtain positive consequences....I have to make wise choices has made this journey a wonderful challenge. I know that I will succeed, because I am choosing to succeed. I know that I will maintain this new healthier lifestyle, because I choose to maintain it. Each morning I choose to greet the day in a thankful attitude, after all I woke up didn't I? I can choose to be miserable or I can choose to be happy, I can choose to eat healthy or not, I can choose to exercise or not....I can choose to be positive or not! Life is all about choices....my choice....to be the best person that I can be, to be a positive influence for others and to have the reality that I desire....health, happiness and wonderment at all the blessings that God provides. God loves me and wants only the best for me, so why would I not want
