How I did it
How to be loved
It took me
1 year
It made me
loved

How I did it: I took me a long time to realize that I was loved and I still sometimes take it for granted. I wanted a love beyond my family. I have been with Jeff for over 2 years and while he does not always show his love for me I know that he does love me. I just need to accept it more. Read how I did it…

How to quit Smoking
It took me
21 days
It made me
happy

How I did it: After a solid 10 years of smoking and a few years previous to that of on's and off's I have finally stopped smoking. Within days I truly felt better. From everyting I felt less slugish, I could breathe easier, I was not winded at all. I am amazed. It was not easy I will say that. Some nights when I would have been sitting at the table enjoy a cigarette in peace a month ago made it tortue the first few nights. Oh and I did this cold turkey… Read how I did it…

lose weight (read all 8 entries…)
not done so well 6 months ago

I have not been 43things motivated in a long time now but that is changing. As far as my weight well, I have gained more since my last post. A year or more ago. So, I will just have to work harder and I will get this done. This will be one thing that I know I will accomplish.

Make new friends (read all 7 entries…)
Untitled 19 months ago

So many days I just want to give up on this. I don’t think I have had a converstaion with a “friend” in over a year. If not longer. I think I should give up. I cancelled my myspace account today. After almost four years of being on there I had accumelated all of 50 comments and maybe 8 friends all people I have worked with that where probaly only there out of sympathy. It was a waste having that account anyway. It’s a bigger waster wanting a friend.
