January 1st is not magical. But people wait for it. We have all heard and/or said it. January 1st I am going to :
--start a diet
--begin a budget
--get organized
--exercise!
...and we know what happens --January 8th does. {L.I.F.E.} And we have to accept that we woke up no different.

Today is September 1st. I have been considering what I need THIS September to be. Instead of overwhelming myself with lofty goals...or chastising myself for ones missed in August, July, June. ...---》 I am choosing to celebrate success, victories, journeys endured--completed.

Over the past 30ish months I have lost 60lbs. Currently 13 away from my goal. This 13lbs seems to be the hardest. (That is my current feeling --but I know in my heart the slow start was the most discouraging)

Clutter has always been a downfall of mine. I hate parting with s.t.u.f.f. So I came across The Minimalist www.theminimalists.com. As a Christian I have quoted "Thou shall not covet" since early Sunday school. In my mind has always interpreted that as "wanting expensive things". Nowadays I am seeing it as no contentment.

I started eating better July 4th, 2013...when a nurse asked me why I didn't go on the MS Recovery Diet. I hadn't because I simply didn't know about it. Even after 2 yrs on it I am slacking some and feeling the effects. Definitely don't want to wait on shaping up!

At the beginning of the year I started writing letters to old friends ---sometimes people contacted me back. I need to do that weekly.
