Time to get busy!

OMG! I have been so sick for two weeks now!  I am behind in everything in life not just school work.  I am not going to panic.  I can take the time and do this.  I wish I chose the subject I am using in my Nutrition class for the subject in my English class.  It is so interesting!  GMO's are a frightening thing!
I am not happy about being force fed genetically modified foods.  It seems to help the government and the farmers but not the consumers! 
I have been wondering where all these aggressive bugs that look like the "nicer" ones we normally see are coming from.  For instance,  the lady bug beetles that are taking over the lady bugs we are used to seeing, they are doing away with the better ones and there are many more of them and they are ruining crops.  Maybe if science would quit messing with nature we would not have these issues!  Soon we are going to be the food of the mutated bugs we are creating....H.G. Wells would have a winner novel with this subject!

I'm a Twitt now!

Great!!  Now I had this idea to post stuff about my personal diet and lifestyle for the world to see.  Not that anyone would be particularly interested but for some reason it makes me feel like I am accountable more this way.  Besides it feels soooo good to vent even if no one is listening.... it's much more acceptable to talk to yourself in text than in person!

Professor Duncan I think you opened a can of worms introducing me to this blog stuff!  Now I found Twitter, I have heard of it, thought it was silly, and now I'm a Twitt!  Thank you - I think! :)

Start Thinking about New Years Resolutions! OR NOT!!

Hey all!  I know Holiday celebrations are just a few weeks away!  Did we get all our Black Friday- Cyber Monday deals?  Not me, I still have things to buy for people.  I may even make a few gifts they are always more personal and friendly.  I started thinking about the holidays and New years  Eve and what it means to people to make resolutions.

Resolutions date back as far as biblical times.  People used to resolve about things that had to do with harvests and farming.  In the 21st century we are more concerned with diets, health, and money.  People resolve to lose weight, quit smoking, and save money.

I wonder if resolutions really have any basis anymore.  I meet more and more people who don't believe in making them for fear of knowing full well they will not keep them.  I, myself, would love to make a resolution to get fit this year because I am getting into a health field. That would warrent me being fit to exemplify that I know my stuff!  Then, I think, why? I should be able to commit and start NOW not wait until Jan. 1st!  It would just be an excuse to put it off if I wait.

I think blogging and telling everyone what I am doing daily might just put me on the spot so to speak so that I do hold myself accountable! Hmmmmm.... I think I just challenged myself.... I may create a new blog for all my facebook friends to see....

Anywho!  Happy Holidays! Have a great New Year... Resolutions or not!
