Landslide- Dixie Chicks

I took my love and I took it down

I climbed a mountain and I turned around
And I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down

Oh, mirror in the sky
What is love
Can the child within my heart rise above
Can I sail thru the changing ocean tides
Can I handle the seasons of my life

Well, I've been afraid of changing 'cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older too
Well...

Well, I've been afraid of changing 'cause I built my life around you
But time makes you bolder
Children get older
I'm getting older, too
Well I'm getting older too

So, take this love and take it down
Year and if you climb a mountain and ya turn around
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well the landslide brought me down
And if you see my reflection in the snow-covered hills
Well maybe
Well maybe
Well maybe the landslide will bring you down

Losing Weight Updates

On my 3^rd week of losing weight and doing better. Indulging on rice sometimes especially when I am with family during Sundays but limiting to a cup. Have been successfully avoided soda and rice for lunch and dinner. I think I have lost some inches on my waist. I definitely need to buy that weighing scale and tape measure soon so I can monitor this closely. I hope I can get my gym membership extended for at least a few more months. I know I promised and I hope I can go tomorrow. Go fight win!!! Yey!
