ROLL Call: What have YOU done for YOU today?
i've done a lot for me lately, new haircut, found a lot of old friends and have really been enjoying catching up. sat down with my daughter and planned our summer on a calendar - not big things just things we want to do this summer - little things like movie night and picnics, going swimming. we thought if we had it on a calendar we wouldnt let the summer slip away without doing all those things.
this week i started the process to have my front teeth fixed - have had caps on them for years and they were really wearing down and stained. actually one broke so i had to get one but decided to bite the bullet and get two - unbearably expensive but when they are done i'll have a beautiful smile again. just makes me feel better about myself.

Enjoyed watching the sunrise while watering the flowers this morning. The roses are gorgeous, vibrant and smell wonderful...and when the wind gently blows... the honeysuckle growing on the fence mixes in and the scent is heavenly.
I treated myself to some new blinds, bought some decor stuff to hang around outside the house, got my favorite wind chimes, purchased a new welcome mat and some hanging plants. I cleaned up out in front of the house .. threw away junky ol' things that he had kept around and am turning my house into a home for me and the kids.
It feels GREAT!!!
I have seen him a few times (he came to pick up some clothes, mail, some thing or another) and each time I do I am so glad that I told him he was not welcome here anymore. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt I did the right thing for me and my children. He tries to put on a nicey nice act, but I know what lies beneath the facade and I am so thankful that I don't have to live with Dr. Jeckle, Mr. Hyde .. It's like a breath of fresh air and I'm lovin' it!
So I guess I can say the best thing I've done for me lately was get rid of him and all the rest followed

My son is doing great, my hubby is almost done remodeling the bathroom~~~and I'm just in the pits. Oh well~~Tomorrows another day and I do have so much to be thankful for. Smiles, Bonnie

OMG - I looked @ this post and remember posting to it a YEAR ago! I cannot believe it's been THAT long. The pathetic is that I would post the same thing even today as far as my goals. How sad. Thank you for bumping this Abs - it's amazing how as a codie I can/have become so complacent. Wow - a real eye opener.
