1-12-11
These numbers confuse me when I try to write them. Of course every "new" year I struggle to remember to write the correct date!! LOL!!!
It has warmed up almost to a balmy 12 degrees outside!!! Now I know that sounds insane to some of you but quite frankly 12 does feel MUCH warmer than zero or anything below zero!! We have a winter storm watch through tonight or tomorrow morning. Supposedly we are supposed to get a bunch of snow and then it is supposed to warm up and rain through the weekend. Now doesn't that just sound peachy?? Oh my ... does the fun ever end????
Today is day "three" of my "new" week. Exercised again today and back seems pretty much okay. I'm grateful for that. I was so busy yesterday that it really wasn't a struggle to stay on track. Bob popped my frozen dinner in the oven for me and it was ready to eat as I continued on my conference call until almost 6 pm. I did enjoy a few chocolate cheerios for a snack (minus the milk) ... not a bad evening snack calorie wise.
Woke up early and it was so close to my alarm time I decided to stay up. Which means I have time to write this journal!!! I'm doing alright ... still not thrilled about the weight gain (who would be?) but not in a major funk, at least not right now!! I have some decisions to make in the near future and once those decisions are made will be working on booking a Mexico vacation I hope. I could use some down time, warm sun, beach/pool time ... oh and of course margaritas!!!
Grateful I am .... for
1. the warmer weather (I know ... Moose has lost her mind!!!)
2. surviving a very busy day at work yesterday
3. (dare I say it out loud?) ... no hot flashes during the day yesterday and only one last night
4. the hope of being snowed in tomorrow!!!!
5. fond memories of fun times in the past
And on I go ... walking imperfectly through my life. Doing my best to practice kindness towards myself, accept my imperfections, embrace me as I am while continuing to work at taking care of myself. For all those of you out there in storm country ... take care, be safe, stay warm!!! For those of you in truly balmy weather (at least comparatively speaking) ENJOY!!!

Carol, you sem to be feeling better, and that is wonderful. Nothing and noone in this life is perfect, and when we try to be, it breeds misery. We are ALL imperfect...our lives are imperfect, our bodies are imperfect, our thoughts are imperfect...we are imperfect, and that is what makes us wonderful...there is always room for improvement, and being imperfect keeps us humble, grateful, and gives us something to strive for. Have a great hump day, and enjoy your snow! HUGS!

Your journey and journals inspired me when I first came to FS, and your grateful list is something I also do now every day, to remind myself of all I am grateful for. I should probably add grateful for you because you have been an inspiration to me. I know you are struggling but your journal sounds optomistic and I hope you are finding your way back. Your hubby sounds great and supportive and we here all love you and think you are great - thin or thinner. You will get back to your healthy best soon, I am confident in that. Keep warm in your blistering cold weather. Brrrrr and HUGS
