Summer-time Blues!

Oh to be relaxing in cool Montana!

Several friends have asked if I am going to continue this blog. I want to, but it needs a new title.  Any suggestions?  A new contest!  Leave your suggestion in the comment section. The winner will get a bracelet!

I need fresh inspiration for this health challenge.  I think I have the "summer-time blues."  I do not do well in the intense heat of summer.  Today, I am going to meet my good friend KK and we are going to swim at Deep Eddy.  This is a spring-fed swimming pool in Austin, TX.  The water is COOLLLLDDDD!  I hope to swim until my lips turn blue!  KK is a true swimmer.  I am more of a dog-paddler.  Hey, it all works!

After, we are going to go see the movie, The Help.  I highly recommend it!  Jack and I went to see it yesterday!  We both cried our eyes out and laughed our heads off, to coin a couple of new phrases! I had read the book and the movie stays very true to it.

Jack's mother grew up in Mississippi and even though she was not there during the civil rights era, her stories were so similar to these.  She was raised by the precious black women in her town.  As an orphan, her white relatives had looked upon her as a burden to be shared, but it was the help who loved and nurtured her.

Go see it!  It has got to win several Academy Awards!!!  As part of your health challenge: Eat lots of popcorn!  It'll clean out your colon! :)
