How I did it
How to quit smoking for good
It took me
6 months
It made me
healthy

How I did it: I made up my mind to be done for good.  I imagined myself 50 years from now if i continue smoking, and then i imagined myself 50 years from now if i quit smoking and decided which life i would prefer.  Then i stuck with it.  When i felt like smoking, i would pray for strength to not smoke.

How to be more spiritual
It took me
6 months
It made me
peaceful

How I did it: I go to church every sunday.  I listen to the Christian channel on the radio.  I went to a Christian mother's group and made friends who are Christian.  I go to bible studies, once a semester.  I read my bible.  I pray more often.  Gardening also helps me feel appreciative of the beauty that God has given me.  Read how I did it…

starting over again 8 months ago

I’m back to 145. I’m having a hard time getting under 140. Some days, i just feel like giving myself permission to eat what i want. I need to stop doing that and start regulating what I eat. Anyway, it is what it is.

Get my Master's (read all 4 entries…)
Almost done 8 months ago

I graduate in May. Last year’s research project/moving to a new area stuff was probably the most stressful of all my educational years, but this final semester is wearing me out….i’m at the point now where i want to be done and over with college….I have an extreme case of senioritis. I want to be done now. I’m glad i’m almost done. I will be on the other side shortly. And then the celebration begins. :-)

Pride and Prejudice 8 months ago

Finished about three weeks ago…..LOVED IT!! Can’t really say too much about it bc i don’t want to spoil it for anyone out there. Just beautifully written…now i’m onto Mansfield Park. I’m halfway through it, but i need to set it down to finish my Master’s, then i’ll pick it back up again…but it’s hard to put a good book down, so chances are I’ll finish it before I graduate. LOL.
