I get tired of hearing myself make excuses and whining about this or that, soooo none of this or that! I am going to have such an awesome rest of the year. When the New Year rings in, mine will be lighter physically and emotionally, as I work through my 1 lb emotional bombs. I think of each pound melting off my body and taking with it the emotion that drove me to pack it on.

I am already thankful for the me that will be!

My middle son sent me a text with the following:

T is it True
H is it helpful
I is it inspiring
N is it necessary
K is it Kind

What I love the most about this acronym is that he liked it and he knew I would too. I do! The photo is of me (center top) with my 5 children. The middle son that sent this is on far left looking at picture. They are a great group of friends as well as my children. This picture was taken last Christmas. I will be getting a new one soon because I am fortunate enough to live near all of them.



Determine that today will be a good day despite whatever the challenges are.
