The Curse of Mexican Food

I have an addiction...the addiction is Mexican food! Okay, I think many would say that what I eat is not really considered Mexican food...quesadillas, cheese dip and guacamole. But to me..it is as authentic as burritos and enchiladas. I stinking love Mexican food. The problem is....I can't resist it and it produces very dramatic side effects that are by all standards...gross. My breath is horrible, my stomach expands to pregnancy levels and yet I return to the food "like a dog returns to its vomit.." Forgive my description, but UGH!!! Each time I indulge in this experience into the abyss I swear I will never do this again. The peer pressure...the mention of lunch at my favorite restaurant and I fall...again and again...vowing to stay away...only to fall to the temptation once again....today. My coworkers AKA: co-conspirators...throw me back into the prison of my addiction....so tomorrow is another day and another opportunity to avoid...avoid and hopefully, choose differently.

Living Out Loud

As I join this community of bloggers and readers of bloggers, it has occurred to me that this is a new adventure.  An adventure of getting to share those comments and observations that connect us as people and communities.  What fun to literally Live out Loud.  This is the name of my new workshops and Life camps and I had no idea the significance of that name in relation to blogging.  Living out Loud or learning to live free of the restraints of regret, pain, broken relationships, and all the other issues that seem to clog up the flow of joy and happiness in our lives and keep us from fully living the dream - being all that God created us to be can be documented on a daily or weekly basis and track growth.  Growth for me and growth for you.  So....Let the Journey Begin!

Hang on, buckle your seatbelt, hold your breath and I invite you to JUMP!
