Odds & Ends
First of all, to whomever nominated me for the BlogHer Heroes contest, I’m sending out a huge, teary thank you–that means so much to me! You have no idea how much you just totally made my day…
And now, a few random odds & ends…
- I completed the Daily Routines 21-Day Makeover. I highly recommend implementing morning, afternoon or after-work, and bedtime routines–they have really changed my life!
- I just finished the first week of my Alcohol-Free 21-Day Makeover. I absolutely do not miss drinking at all. I spend so much less money when I’m out, and I consume far fewer calories! People seem to get a bit uncomfortable when they drink and I don’t, but so far, it hasn’t been a huge issue.
- Today is Day 1 for both the week of zero complaining and the month of no shopping!
- I was going to start getting up at 5am to meditate this morning, but we were out late last night. I’ll start that tomorrow.
- I’m starting to work on memorizing my poem. I chose “anyone lived in a pretty how town” by ee cummings.













Congrats on the contest nominations…what an honor!

Wow! That poem would be difficult for me to memorize because some of the words are like…gibberish? (Probably not the best term.) Words that don’t seem to go together, let’s put it that way.
and a well deserved honor.
I did the “eh Ill stop drinking for a month & see how I feel” thing FOURTEEN YEARS AGO
and havent looked back.
no reason beyond I saw no reason to drink
youd laugh at the number of people who tell me what a disservice Im doing my body by NOT having a few drinks a week…all the health benefits Im missing out on.
I just smile and nod.
you are so whipping yourself into shape IN AND OUT.
Im joining ya on the meditation.
