Hodge Podge and Some Good News

It is Saturday and after a windy, but lovely long hike with my sweet old dog Zeus I have decided to give myself a free day, which means I can do anything I want and that would include reading wonderful books called "Ladder of Years" by Anne Tyler and "Still Here" by Ram Dass. I also intend to do a little painting on some porcelain as tomorrow I am actually going to start painting paintings again! But not today, today I play. I have some news, I have been wanting to go home to Oregon and see my mom and my family and the beautiful sea, and my mom has made it possible for me to do so, I am leaving in two weeks. I am so looking forward to it! Also I have not updated my weight loss, life style changes for a while, still making mostly the right choices every day, one meal at a time. My rules I try to stick by are, if it is a whole food (not been messed with) and organic, I can eat it and if it isn't I go for the best choice I can. Once in a while I eat cake just for fun :-). I feel so much better being off sugar, though it is sometimes hard. I also walk or run everyday. I almost have the body I have always dreamed of, not perfect, but lean. Not totally lean yet, but getting close :-). And the best part is I am doing this for only me and how I feel, nobody else. Also thought I might update my Busting Loose progress, still doing the process, still believe in it and know that I will bust loose! I will leave you with a couple quotes that called to me this week: "But screw your courage to the sticking place and it will not fail"-Shakespeare "You don't have to see the whole staircase. Just take the first step." Martin Luther King Happy Saturday! XOXO

Warrior Woman

That is how I feel these days. Like a spiritual warrior. Strong and fearless. I have many hard things going on, but I feel able to cope (with lots of sleep and healthy food). My life since"Busting Loose from the Money Game" and doing "The Process" , is changing on a daily basis. I am able to stay in the moment without effort. I handle crisis with a clear head and I don't panic. My blogger friend Kelly is also doing "The Process" as is a client and both are having miracles of their own.
So now I know I was not making it all up :-).
Update on Mr.B-Today he did everything he was supposed to, he ate, peed, pooped and he took his pills. One day at a time. I am to take him in to be weighed in 3-4 weeks, then we will go from there. We got the test results, it is not his thyroid. Everyday is a gift. Thank you for your love, B and I both appreciate it. Happy Thursday! XOXO
