Good am all, How are ya'll doing? I am decidely smiling, a bit curious & happy to be alive & awake & moving around! Yesterday was a WONDERFUL day. The wind was quite blustery for the better part of the day & pm. All the windows were open & candles going to let Mother Nature breathe some fresh air throughout the house. Nora & I went to the park & really enjoyed ourselves even if we were getting blown all over the place. She got to giggling so hard about it which made me giggle. Soooo cute! Managed to get chores done & errands as well.  Been processing so much these last 2 weeks & have come to some conclusions about so much & thankfully I can say that I'm proud of myself now after having looked at all I've been through & where I am today. I have thought long & hard about my WLS journey & I am so blessed & grateful & thankful for EVERYTHING good, bad, happy, sad etc I've had to endure because seeing the light at the end of tunnel & realizing that its not a freight train is such a tremendous feeling. Sometimes we all walk in the dark & we all feel lost & unsure & so many other emotions I could. Other times we are on top of the world and shout our blessings to everyone so that we can all share in them as if celebrating together like they are happening in each of our lives at the same time. I think that it so difficult at times to find our way that when we falter some (I know I do) tend to beat ourselves up so badly & think negatively instead of really taking steps back and listening & seeing the big picture but even more seeing all the steps we have to take in between here & that big picture.  I saw this list below as part of an email I received & thought dang that hits home & most of us can identify with some or all of these. · We exhibit tender hearts when we say to one another: It’s OK to have a bad day. It’s OK to be tired. It’s OK to admit your mistakes. It’s OK to say your marriage is failing. It’s OK to confess your addiction. It’s OK to share you’re scared. It’s OK to want a day away from your toddler. It’s OK to grieve a loss. It’s OK to doubt, to be confused, to cry. · We exhibit humble minds when we say to one another: It’s OK to be happy you got a new car. It’s OK to celebrate that you got a huge raise. It’s OK to joyfully tell us you lost 17 pounds. It’s OK to say you won the sales competition. It’s OK to tell us these things because we will be as happy for you as if these blessings had come to us, and we will join you in hearty celebration. It's OK to profess your faith & beliefs and be reminded of the joys they bring into your life. Today is going to be a much cooler but beautiful day & on the books is some chores, walking & relaxing. I'm not pushing it today. I've been pushing it quite a bit & my body needs to rest. I have it on good authority that there are a couple movies collecting dust & new ones need to be ordered! Enjoy your Thursday!

Courtney I havnet had a chance to Thank you for keeping the board a rolling while Kat was gone  for a few days just wanted to say thanks, sorry Kat for the hijack : ).... And hang in the Court today will be here and gone before you know it. Make it your day :) I heard the other day we make our lives and live them to be what we want Others want to see, if we live our lives to be and want what WE want for ourselves  we would be a much happier world. Sounds strange but if you think about it, it does make alot of since. Hugs....
