eat more vegetables
Meat has been making me feel icky. 4 weeks ago

Veggies do not. It only took me 40 years to figure that out.



feel the fear and do it anyway (read all 2 entries…)
An update LONG overdue... 1 month ago

I have conquered the fish tank thing, mostly by exposure and a good psychiatrist who understood that the phobias were not real in themselves, but manufactured by my anxiety driven brain to account for the constant fear.

My agoraphobia- mostly licked. I no longer get freaked out in wide open spaces.

Roller coaster phobia- I rode one. I was catatonic for a full day and experiencing flashbacks for two weeks. Never again.



Spend more time with friends. (read all 3 entries…)
It hardly counts... 1 month ago

but Facebook is proving to be an AMAZING resource for all this. I have plans in the works for regular visits with friends new and old!
