THURSDAY... I am not sure what I did wrong... but my post does not seem to be posting... Likely story! :)

Thursday, February 22, 2007 The TINY upside down Food Pyramid O.K.... am I the only one who just laughed when looking at the pyramid in the SUPERFOODS book? I made a copy and enlarged it so that I could read it.... MUCCCCHHHHHH better. I surprised "Peppa" with a copy today. She saw it sitting on my "class cart" and ohhh & ahhhhhed, and then got REAL excited when I told her that it was her very own and that I knew she too would need it if she were planning to get anything out of the chart.For those of you as blind as us.... in case you are wondering... it has some good info on it.I like looking at charts to get a handle on understanding information. Anyway. we are creating notebooks with some of our better information. I know... it is one of those "teacher" things. I learn better that way... I can't help it. Plus... If I know it I am more likely to DO IT!Looking forward to FRIDAY! Posted by Believe in Miricles ~ Lisa B Davis at 8:52 PM 0 comments Thursday..... another terrific, sunny day! You may have seen this before... I may have even seen it before... If I did, it did not register with me as it does today. Sooooo ... I am sharing it with you. I thought it was quite appropriate with some of my current feelings! :)NEVER HEARD CREATION EXPLAINED THIS WAY BEFORE !!!>> In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth and populated> the Earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, green> and yellow and red vegetables of all kinds, so Man and Woman would> live long and healthy lives.>> Then using God's great gifts, Satan created Ben and Jerry's Ice> Cream and Krispy Creme Donuts.

Well.... "Peppa" & I walked between classes again today. We did not have any takers today though. It was soooo beautiful out today our outside time was great!

We are all "PUMPED UP" .... (attitude wise anyway) We have both been reading up on our healthy eating information and following through with much more than before. We are really getting there.

I even walked another 25-30 minutes with a neighbor after I got home from work.
