    A very special anniversary 4 days ago

    I got this “reminder” email from nj.quit.net, the support site for people trying to quit smoking:

    Your Quit Date is: Friday, July 07, 2006
    Time Smoke-Free: 1096 days
    Cigarettes NOT smoked: 16,444
    Lifetime Saved: 4 months, 5 days, 14 hours
    Money Saved: $4,110.00

    Can it really be 3 years since I quit? I smoked for 28 years (1978 to 2006) and hardly remember being a smoker.
    Quiting smoking is probably the single “best” thing I’ve ever done for myself.

    I highly recommend it. It’s not easy – but as they say “if it was easy, everyone would be doing it”



    Good test results 2 weeks ago

    Not scholastic tests – medical. I had bloodwork done plus a few extras. Just like being in a new age bracket on surveys, turning 50 opened a whole new medical can of worms to think about.
    All the numbers are good, with a minor blip. The cholesteral is up a wee bit. No biggee – I’m back on the meds (at 1/2 dose) but also added ground flax seed to my diet. The doctor was happy with my decision to do both.
    Never before have I taken responsibility for my physical health like I do now. A doctor can tell me what I need to do, but I have to do it. My body can tell me it hurts, but I have to listen. I am the only one who can take care of me. And I’m going to do it well.

    just a little bit more confident makes me proud of myself!
    And happy too!



    I am, I really am.... 2 months ago

    so why haven’t I written here in so long? Well, I’ve been busy living my life…something I never used to do, since I was either afraid (of what?) or waiting for it to start…silly.

    Interestingly enough, on FaceBook today (yeah, it IS addicting) I got a “message” from an application called “you got a message from God”. In part it said….
    “God wants you to know…that to find out who you are becoming, find stories that move your heart.
    Just like a seed has an image of the tree in it, so does your heart have an image of who you are becoming”.

    I love that analogy.

    I honestly truly want to be able to look back and be proud of every decisions I’ve made, whether they are good or bad. It wouldn’t matter. As long as I can be proud of where I am… I can be proud of where I’ve been.

    buy a lot of useless things today!

    I went to the craft store & to Target!
    But I only spent less than $5.00!

    Yay me!

    I am trying really hard not to be a shopaholic!

    It sure is difficult sometimes, but not today!

    I’m getting more and more proud over myself. But there’s still a long way to go…

    I will get there!

    Taking the time to call my MoM today!

    It was a fairly short phone call.
    But I think she was glad that I called her!

    We do talk to each other a lot!
