Good morning beautiful ladies. Happy New Year!
Thanks for all the kinds words and thoughts about DaisyDog. They are truly appreciated. (That's how the pharmacy had her pills labeled. Daisy Dog (last name). It quickly became our nickname for her.
)
TheSecondHalf - I think the only time you slow down is when you get sick. I was a teensy bit happy to hear that you spent a day sleeping, though if you could get the rest without being sick I would be happier.
Fiona W and
CourtneyDaisey - Way to go showing the rest of us up
Congratulations!
CeeJay - Ride ride ride! Yours is a much healthier way to look at things. Much more positive thinking that you can have a better life and smaller, cute clothes than you can't have a pint of Ben & Jerry's at the end of a long day.
Ben, Jerry and I... we've been spending a lot of scandalous time together lately.
293.4 this morning. I was expecting to be at 300 again after two weeks of complete disregard for what I was putting in my mouth, so I'll take it and be happy about it.
TheSecondHalf sharing that link and reading the updates made me think of something that my division director said in our last meeting. I think that it applies to everyday life as well as work life.
"You have to juggle a lot of balls. The trick is to know which are rubber and which are glass, so that you can figure out which you can let drop to bounce back and which you have to keep in the air."
My weight has been a rubber ball for too long. Always letting it drop to be put back into consideration later. I need to make it a glass ball, along with some other things that I've just been taking for granted there will be time to juggle later.
My marriage, my friends, my family, my weight. Glass. If they drop they shatter and will never be the same.
Everything else? Rubber. They can bounce into play when the glass balls are stable, and drop when I need to focus.
So there. Deep thoughts for your first Thursday of 2014. If anyone else has an inspirational bit to share, please do. I don't think any of us will ever say we have too much inspiration.
