Just a quick note. We're out of town, visiting MP's daughter and grandkids. i was a little overwhelmed yesterday - i felt like i'd been around people way too much and i was just on overload. i was a bit cranky, and snappy, which i don't like. By the end of the day, i just … Continue reading Sunday Check-in 7-3

Sunday Check-in 6-26
i don't know if it's the licorice root stick, or just a slightly different way of thinking about food, but i haven't been eating compulsively this last week. My scouting forays into the kitchen to see what we've got good to eat have practically stopped. i eat my meals, and that's enough. Weird, isn't it? On … Continue reading Sunday Check-in 6-26

Really, anything i might have to say about myself is overshadowed by the tragedy in Orlando, where at least 50 people died and 53 people were wounded in a gay bar. My heart breaks for the victims and their families and friends and for all of us, who are less safe everywhere. ************************* In my own … Continue reading Sunday check-in 6-12 (on Monday)
Three for Day 3 – and Check-in Sunday
Moving into the last day of the quote challenge - i actually found three quotes i liked. “Open your mind. See the world in all its splendid color. Truly look at the uniqueness of the people around you and cherish the nuances. Before you make judgments of others and their lifestyles, always remember that there … Continue reading Three for Day 3 – and Check-in Sunday

i've had company for several days, and enjoyed it so much. i have not eaten well, or exercised (although there was dancing) or meditated. i'm shrugging it off - tomorrow is another day. But i want to recommit to meditating, and walking more. Part of my weekend was wasted obsessing on the possibility of some … Continue reading Sunday Check-in 5-29
Sunday Check-in 5-15
i can't seem to hold my goals in my head - or keep them in front of me the way i'd like to. i wasn't as productive as i'd like to be this week, i didn't do any of the things that i've talked about wanting to do. i've exercised a couple of times, but … Continue reading Sunday Check-in 5-15
Check-in April 17
Today, i will be finishing my taxes. Well, finishing the necessary forms to file them that is. This is the latest I've been in a long time. I was thinking the week had been a dismal failure, and then i remembered about the goals i set. i thought that was a week ago, but it … Continue reading Check-in April 17

i haven't met my goals yet. i know, that's a shock, right? Just kidding, of course i haven't. i haven't even really set goals yet. It hasn't even been 2 weeks since i decided to change my life in some radical ways. i was prepared to come over here and yell at myself for not … Continue reading Check-in 4-3-16
