Saint Anthony and I have become VERY good Friends because of my talent for misplacing my KEYS!!!!
I know my Nature so I have several sets in various places. I even keep a set in my locker at work.
In December, I cashed in my stock, bought an Oldsmobile Alero and gave Monticello Blue the East Coast Malibu to my .
A few days after I bought the car - I came home from work at 10 at night. I took Freyja the Mutt out for a quick run in the snow.
Later on, I was back in the House. Lo and Behold - No Keys and my ONLY Key to the Oldsmobile missing. I clean the entire house looking for it.
TONY TONY TURN AROUND WHAT IS LOST MUST BE FOUND AGAIN!!!!!
Happily a Locksmith lives right across the road. After talking to him, he agreed to open the car door in case the Keys were in the car. He could make another car key but it would be VERY EXPENSIVE!!!!! Happy Happy Joy Joy!
Backtracking where I walked the Mutt - Lo and Behold - The Keys were laying in the Snow!!!!
ST. Anthony to the Rescue!!!! AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Maybe I should give St. Anthony the Money I would have been giving that Locksmith. He could buy some more stock with it and we'll buy another car. Considering how many time's St. Anthony as found something that I've manage to misplace.
Instead of giving a politician the keys to the city, it might be better to change the locks.” Doug Larson quotes
A soul mate is someone who has locks that fit our keys, and keys to fit our locks. When we feel safe enough to open the locks, our truest selves step out and we can be completely and honestly who we are; we can be loved for who we are and not for who we’re pretending to be. Each unveils the best part of the other. No matter what else goes wrong around us, with that one person we’re safe in our own paradise. Our soul mate is someone who shares our deepest longings, our sense of direction. When we’re two balloons, and together our direction is up, chances are we’ve found the right person. Our soul mate is the one who makes life come to life.” Richard Bach quotes (American Writer, author of 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull', b.1936)
“If you ever drop your keys into a river of molten lava, let 'em go, because man, they're gone.” Jack Handy quotes

This is the Pacific Ocean - Actually Stones and Sand from Moonstone Beach. I've had this since 1999 when I relocated from Ventura County to West Virginia. Now I live closer to the Atlantic Ocean. I am interviewing for a Job in Newport News, Virginia. It will be great living near the Ocean Again. The Difference is that I will have to get up early to see the Sun Rise from the Ocean versus Staying Up Late to watch it Set upon the Ocean.

So this year, I acquired a NEW Car! Despite the fact that it's an OLDsmobile! I've acquired a NEW mutt and I ran a 5K on NEW Year's Twenty-Eleven
So it's time to make a NEW Years Resolutions
My Resolution is to run a 5K in less than 45 Minutes. That is about 15 Minutes a Mile which is totally doable.
Also I want to clean the Stove and oven and NOT use it for the rest of the year.
Microwaves, Crockpots, Juicer and George Foreman will do all the Cooking for Twenty-Eleven

New Year's 2011 5K Run - The Old Girl Ran!!!!!

Slowly - My Finishing time was 51 minutes and 34 Seconds. On a Positive note, with timing like that all I can do is improve.
I haven't run since College, I wasn't expecting to win and didn't care long as I didn't finish dead last. I didn't finish last but I was definitely at the back of the pack.
As Freyja the Mutt and I were running, I kept thinking - There is nothing wrong with being a late bloomer. A late bloomer doesn't fade as quickly. I don't want to be last in running but I am really tired of being last in love. Why not exchange Last in Love for Lasting Love. I kept telling Freyja the Mutt. Hey Girl! YOU can do it. We can finish this run.
All of the Winners including the Seniors finished Twenty-Something Minutes. They all had wiry builds too. One of my running buddies told me that I am not built for speed. Life on life's Terms. I don't mind my curves but I do want to finish the Next 5K Faster than 51 minutes and 34 Seconds on my next run.
It was important for me to make this run. It's symbolic of old belief that I am trying to smash! The Belief that I am not worth loving. I've been divorced since 2002. I've had two relationships and a boyfriend since that time. The Boyfriend and Relationship#2 both ditched me for another woman. Ironically - Blonde Alcoholic Bimbos both named Sandy. Relationship#1 ended the relationship because he said I was too fat, too tall and couldn't complete with the Lot Lizards that he utilized for oral pleasure. Dang! I don't want to be a professional at that activity anyway. This is a man who calls his a sweat hog because she's built like Him.
Regardless, I know that Fool Hearted Man, His Bimbo and the Idiot Trucker with all his Lizards will NEVER get their lard azzzzzes out to walk much less run 5 K.
I figure if I can run and do what they can't, I can smash that belief. Also my New Year's Resolution is avoid any kind of man that reinforces that belief.
It means that I am throwing alot of guys to the curb and to
KEEP RUNNING!!!!!!
I will do better at the next running event

I will do whatever it takes to to bring LOVE, LUCK & PROSPERITY for TWENTY-ELEVEN !!!!so yesterday my boss mention that he had the Black-Eye Pea, Collard Greens and (hog jowls!) ready.
"Yuck! I'd feed them Hog Jowls to the Dog," I told him.
"You can buy Hog Jowls that look like Bacon," he advised me.
Don't Care! I can deal with Black Eye Peas and Collard Greens but the is still eating the Hog Jowls.
It's amazing how many Southern men will NOT eat Sushi but they eat HOG JOWLS!
So after work, I bee-bopped over the the Wal-Mart Super Center next door for my humble New Year's Day Fare. I opted for Ham Hocks instead of Hog Jowls. The will get to eat those too.
On New Year's Eve - It's Sushi Time!!!!!!
The tradition is that you celebrate decadently on New Year's Eve with caviar and champagne (or the best food you can afford) to ring out the old year in style. And then, on New Year's Day, you eat more soberly in order to bring luck and prosperity for the upcoming year.
Therefore, "poorer foods" - such as Hoppin' John (black-eyed pea dish), cabbage (sauerkraut) and pork (whether hog jowls, pig's feet or just pork roast) - are served on New Year's Day.
Per gOOgle Research

My younger procrastinated in getting his driver's License but finally got one a few months ago. He bought himself a car but never go it out of the yard. It was a piece of JUNK!!!!!
I sold my WallyWorld Stock - Brought myself an Oldsmobile and gave him MONTICELLO BLUE.
YIKES! My Baby Boy is DRIVING!!!!!
I purchased a St. Christoper for Him on the Bay.
I SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN A ST. CHRISTOPHER FOR MYSELF.
Thank God - I am older with more insurance.
That's the OTHER CAR that I backed into at the Harris Teeter Parking Lot. The Oldsmobile is unscathed.
I just ordered a St. Christoper for myself.

I was planning on running in Virginia Beach for the "Hair of the Dog" 5K. The idea is to run in formal attire. I have no formal attire. In fact I have no dresses and very few skirts.
S0............. I purchased a lace body stocking along with a black and silver skirt on the bay. My plan is to wear it over my leopard print swimsuit. All I have to do is don my running shoes and
The Old Girl is Ready to Run!!!!
I decided to do a local run versus driving to Virginia Beach because of financial and work schedule realities. If it's too cold, I will opt for Long Underwear instead. I will have to find OTHER Uses for that Body Stocking.

My needs a car so I decided to buy a newer car and give him the Malibu. I cashed in my Stock and started looking at cars.
Since I am still recovering from my ex-marriage and West Virginia - my credit is not the greatest - So Two weeks ago, I went into a car dealer. I told the salesman - I have $1800. I'd like to pay off my Malibu and use the rest as a down payment for a new car. Lets do a Credit Check first so that we don't waste both our times.
Oh Your Credit is fine he says. So here's the offer. Yada Yada Yada! The Following Week, the lenders said, Nope! Your Credit is NFG! Life on Life's Terms
Oh Well! The Dealer from whom that I purchased Monticello Blue was very happy to have a repeat customer.
"And Since your credit score has improved so much, we were able to find you a lender with a lower interest rate" she told me. They also lowered the price of the Oldsmobile that I purchased.
I remember my Scorpio Granddaddy drove an Oldsmobile. It seems like a fancy luxury car. Ideal for an Old Person. Dang! I am my Scorpio Granddaddy's Age. In fact I am older than my Scorpio Granddaddy since he entered the SpiritWorld when he was 53.
I was talking to my 70 year old ex-husband who is looking for a new car. "You really ought to consider replacing that FireChicken with an Oldsmobile." It has all kinds of bells and whistles and is ideal for an OLD person." Grumpy the ex-hubby who had three heart attacks, a stroke and has COPD - mumbles "I think I'll stick to my Firebird. That car doesn't handle West Virginia Winters well at all.
My younger will be picking up the Malibu on Sunday.
