Okay, I’ll be the first to admit that there’s very little “dieting” significance to this picture. I’m just a very visually-oriented person. I like illustrations. And this looks sort of magical, doesn’t it? Like magic is happening? Which it is, of course. All the time, and everywhere. Look at us - total strangers who wouldn’t even know each other if we met on the street - and yet we are caring about each other (Like wanting Soclose to be sure and get enough fiber, considering the family history, and keeping my fingers crossed that Anngirl finds what she is looking for…and others with different needs and wants) and supporting each other and being ”there” for each other when having someone be there, listening to our thoughts and validating what we have to say is needed. I’ve always been a technophobe - slow to learn the techniques, and uncomfortable with step-by-step directions of any kind. This is actually my first experience with blogging, and to be honest, I expected it to be a very solitary endeavor - just a place to journal, really. I never expected anyone to actually read my blog, or comment on it, and yet now I find myself watching for comments, and watching for my special blogger-mates to post on their own blogs, and looking forward to seeing how their weekend was, or how their family members are doing, and of course whether or not they are eating healthily and taking care of themselves.
Now, if that isn’t magic - or majick - I don’t know what it is!
I’m supposed to eat 27 points worth of food today. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can….LOL…remember the little engine that could?
Chicken - only 3 points for supper tonight - I may have to eat seven WW ice cream bars!
Oh, back to work….ack. I want to be home. Fifteen more minutes…I think I can…
Tah!
E!

As usual, you’ve nailed it!!! This really is a little community, village, or whatever you want to call it…..and just like in the non-cyberspace world, people “click” to differing degrees with others here; it’s our just human nature doing its thing. We are wired to be social creatures; and for this I’m personally thankful!

Right on Ms. Ella - DAMN straight. This is the ONLY place where my friends (you all) understand me. I am so grateful to have this space to share my feelings, fears & funnies. It’s like I have a family here and I just love it….
What can I say - sometimes shit happens for a reason and it’s to fortify your life - contribute to your triumphs. A soft place to land….
You make me smile, you make me think and most of all you bring me JOY.
You crack me up…. xo
quick - eat somethin’ else!
