Operation LTC 163

So I have had a couple of people ask what exactly Operation LTC 163 is, my response is the same now as it was then, you know how the CIA and DoD and FBI have names like Operation Tango or Operation Orange Yellow Bellied Scared Baboon? That is sort of like Operation LTC 163, even if I told you what exactly it was it still wouldn't make much sense to you so I will be like the CIA and keep my mouth shut.

 Either way it is an Operation of healthy choices and positivity with me as it's sole member and leader. Over the last week or so I have posted a couple of status's on facebook that are worthy enough of repeating here (at least as the sole member and leader I think they are so bare with me ok)
In life allow others to inspire and encourage you along your journey, do not long to be those people. We have all faced our own battles and have our own scars, no one is any more perfect at being you than you are, and ultimately at some point in time most of those other people will end up letting you down because you have placed them on such a high pedestal. Just be you, one step at a time, and enjoy your own journey. ~Operation LTC 163
Whenever you feel like you might be on the outside looking in, look at the bright, side you have plenty of room to dance around and just be you! Operation LTC 163
 Hope everyone had a wonderful love filled day! Through our struggles and triumphs we grow and become more of the person we long to be. I am very thankful I have the freedom and health to enjoy everything this crazy thing called life throws at me. Even a bummed out hip can be a blessing, I never would have seen that beautiful shooting star this morning if I hadn't had to walk or had my friend tell me to use the time to enjoy what was around me. If someone hadn't said a couple of words i took the wrong way i may have missed the chance to clear the air with a friend. Look for the good in all things! Operation LTC 163
The purpose Operation LTC 163 is to help me keep my eye on the goal and to remember the positive things in my life. The things that I have the ability to do and change, that this morning and every morning in the past I have woken up, under a roof, with food in the fridge, and with my health. Not everyone in my life can say those things. 

I have learned so many wonderful things in the past year, all of which I wish I could share with you, but the most important thing I have learned and it applies to everything in life is this.

This weekend I challenge you to look at negative situations with a new spirit, remember there are reasons for all, and that you have the ability and choice to change how you view it. 
Oh PS: this girl did TEN one arms push ups (yes they looked a bit sissy baby but I did them with my left arm) AND I am happily putting my hiney in size 12 jeans.

Much Love.

Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming...

My heart talks to me in a Dory voice, my brain doesn't.. my brain sounds more like Nemo's dad Marlin. My brain is always grumbling and telling me I can't or I will never be good enough or it hurts way too bad or I am fat or .. there are so many OR's that it is not even funny.  Very much like Marlin in the movie, everything was always gloom and doom. My heart says just keep swimming, swimming, swimming or running, running, running or BREATHING BREATHING BREATHING. Whatever the occasion calls for. (recently at bootcamp it has required all of those and then some). My heart wants so badly to be more than I am, to not be the one in the back, to not be the one the rest of the team is constantly waiting on in push up position, to not be the one who's foot feels like glass just split the bottom of it open again and tries to get off of the shells... cont. Side Bar on Foot:  it hasn't split open just truly felt that way, the only way I can describe what my foot f...

My Best Friend

Image
Let me tell you about my best friend, I do suppose the first thing I need to tell you is that he is well a he. Most girls I know their best bestest friend is a she, not me, but as he will quickly tell you I have never been one to exactly follow the rules. You know how when someone asks how long you have known your best friend and it feels like your whole life so you just say "oh forever", I am lucky enough that I actually have. He has been there through good things and bad and never once did I ever question how much exactly he loved me, even when he didn't particularly like me very much. I am sure when I was younger there were times he thought to himself "Lord what in the world did I ever do bad enough to have to put up with this?" I can't say I can blame him cause there were times I was really not the nicest person in the world, but not once did he ever give up on me. Oh, who am I kidding, he has probably thought that recently. I can say with complete...
