I am happy. I am finally mostly free of the pain of the complications that accompanied my jacked up weight loss surgery. I get a few twinges now and then, but all in all, I can handle it. I can walk for miles and run and laugh again. There was a time not too long ago that I thought my life was over. It's amazing how things can change when you find the right doctor, have the support of family and friends, and try to keep a positive attitude.
I work out every day and it makes a huge difference as to how I feel. Today I climbed 2 lookout towers in Door County and walked a few miles with Hubby and Kid. It was a nice break from the gym and since I quit smoking last year and have been doing cardio activity every day for 2 years, it felt fairly easy to climb the towers. I never thought that could happen and it makes me very happy.
I like simple things... like seeing over 30 deer today...3 of them stood just yards away from me and let me just look at them. And feeding bread to ducks and geese in Lake Michigan is relaxing and makes me feel at peace. We met a nice older couple at one of the state parks. We talked with them for awhile and I gave their little dog some attention. It was just very nice to spend time with my husband and son and to just "be" today.
Happiness comes from within... no one can change it unless you let them.
And I choose to be happy today.
