Madbird, I agree on the exercise. It changes my sleep and my mood. This time of year in the north it's even more important with the lack of light. Thanks for that, I exercised outdoors yesterday and it was raining and I was pretty much alone on the trail and I'm so glad I went.
24 more hours, get up and do it again. Amen.

I'know I haven't checked in on a few days. I haven't been drinking, but I have been smoking a little pot. The other night I felt like I just needed something to take the edge off. I haven't had a drink or used any other drugs. But I felt funny checking in and promising to stay sober for 24 hours while I was high on weed. Anyway, now that I made my confession, I just want to thank you all for your love and support!!!

Good morning friends. I was watching this thing yesterday and the guy kept saying "It is up to you." That has been stuck in my mind a lot. . . about how easy it is to go to excuse mode "It's genetic." "It's easier for them." "I'm too old/young/fat/tired" "It's cold/hot/rainy/too far." . . . all of these non-things stopping me from doing what I want/need to do.
It has just been on my mind all night and I can see how many things, little and big, that I need to step up a bit more and take responsibility. Making excuses isn't kind to myself. My actions are shoving me into this victim mode that makes me feel weak. I am not a victim!
So my commitment today is to take responsibility by quitting the excuse making.
Just so you know, there is not some huge thing in my life. Things are nice here. This is just one of those fine tuning things. You know, one of the snags in our lives that has become evident to me. "Hmmm. . . I need to fix this." Just a minor course adjustment.
Sending hugs, love and prayers <3
