Friday. Whew! One more day to shine. Lol.
I still have work over the weekend to finish preparing for my training on Tuesday. I may need to go into the office to make copies of stuff. The second half needs tweaking. I have a PowerPoint in place because I've presented the material before but I like to tweak.
Three visits today with driving it will take me most the day. We are supposed to get hammered with snow today but hope we don't.
I will not take weighing, off the stove, as Keld suggested. Probably will weigh in tomorrow morning. Whether I record it is another matter! Maybe I've done better than I think. I might get a pleasant surprise. Just peeked at my car and so far just a skiff on it.
Grateful today for
Sleeping well last night
An unexpected chat with my dear friend by phone last night
Glimmers of clarity and balance amidst my confusion, grief, and sadness.
Laughter
An unexpected chat with a colleague.
Knowing, if even just for brief moments, I make a difference
Commitment to self care
And on I go, kindness, gratefulness, mindfulness, trust in the process and patience. Take care!

Hi Carol. I missed your journal yesterday. I am sad for you but hopeful and happy, also. That you are getting some help in the form of a friend to talk to and its free - always good. Sorry it all came to a head the way it did but as you said its been coming for a while. You have to look after yourself first; put your oxygen mask on first so to speak. You have tried to get him involved too but like a lot of folks he has his head up his butt thinking he can do this by himself. Sigh. You have the rhythm of it; one day at a time, breath, patience - with all things - food, marriage, life. You know you are a good person; you know you are good at what you do. You know you can only control so much (its all an illusion anyway - control - isn't it?) So as you are doing, let go and let God. And hope for better days tomorrow. We love you and care for you and that will have to be enough for now. If he's as smart as he seems, he'll come back to your heart.

Hey girl, you will weigh when you feel like it. Lately , I have gone without weighing, just because I didn't feel like it. Not that it didn't matter, but that I knew I was doing well, and that was the most important thing. You know how you are doing and you are taking care of yourself and you deep down, the scale isn't dictating your journey. Yeah you!

Carol, hope that your weekend has been a good one. Sorry I have been absent, but I am just not feeling very good right now. Went back to the doc and got more antibiotics and an inhaler. Hoping that takes care of this nastiness. Please know that you make more than a little difference...you make a big difference to so many here and in the work you do with those families! You are important, you are awesome, you are amazing, and you are beautiful...inside and out! Love you, my sweet friend, and I am always here if you need me...you have my email addy...feel free to use it anytime! HUGS!!!
