Missy's Moments

Day 6 Today I am #thankful for the men and women that choose to serve our country in a way that I can not wrap my brain around. I am certain there is more to military life and the impact it has on the families than we can imagine and last night when the solider stood on the ice while the National Anthem was sang I thought about all he's seen and done during the two tours he had been on, all the times his mom or wife or children missed him or were worried about him. My eyes were wet with tears and I need to not take the privilege that we have men and women that don't even know us fighting for our freedom for granted. #thankyouforserving

Day 5 Today I'm #thankful for date nights with my husband. We are able to sneak off to the Wild game tonight and in the mist of what has been some of the busiest weeks we've had for a long time we could both use some focused couple time. I'm thankful that we both know that we not only have to but want to make our relationship a priority. There is some driving in possible bad weather involved and that always makes things a bit more interesting on our adventures

Day 4- Today I am #thankful for my Dad Thomas Langdon .Today is his birthday and He is most likely sitting in camouflage in a cold boat waiting for some innocent duck to take flight, or he's working on some insane house project, or perhaps he's getting ready to put in a 12 hour day in (you know since he's retired). Whatever he's doing he's doing it with a sense of humor, with a loving loyal heart and with everything he's got! I love you Dad! Happy Birthday♥ — feeling blessed.

Today I am thankful for an extra hour of sleep!! #thankful — feeling rested.

Day 2- looking at my "chores" I am thankful today for the ability to be able to do them...I have working appliances, supplies I need and a husband who cleans toilets. #thankful

Day 1 - I am thankful for my family. They are my heart. My husband Rick honors our marriage, loves our children and is a fabulous Papa, my only daughter Kayla is an young adult with many responsibilities that she tackles daily all while loving and chasing a busy almost 2 year old, my son's Jordan , Eric and Sam have taught me more about letting go and way more about bodily noises than I could ever imagine. I am grateful for each one of you- I love you all!

  About a month ago (maybe even longer) it became very clear to me that the weight that I always told myself I “would never” gain back was not just knocking on my door but had gained (no pun intended) access and was going to make itself at home on my rear (and anywhere else for that matter). “It” became one of those things in the back of my mind and “it” was becoming quite obvious with every piece of clothing that was once loose, with all those aches and pains, with every craving for sweets, with pictures, in my chin (both of them) and so on and so on and so on. People say exercise- just have to do it. That is true. And it’s easier said than done. At least for me anyway. You can judge but that’s how I feel. I am a want a be exerciser and I do want to be and I have a goal to learn but in the meanwhile I need to get feeling better physically to get moving more and this will be a slow work in progress. People say eat healthier-just have to do it. Eat whole grains/fruits and vegeta...
