DON'T QUIT #3/JUST START OVER
Start Over If you have started out in pursuit of your goal And you have really tried with your heart and your soul, But somehow things got out of control START OVER. When you have tried your best to do what you should And you thought this time that you surely would, But once again, you did not do good START OVER. When you…

Giving thanks on my Valentine Birthday
So some time after midnight last night, I was doing a little scan of my MFP friends' posts to make sure I had commented on everyone's day.

REALLY? Are you kidding me?
I lost my job over 2 years ago and the first thing I did was go home, pull on a pair of old sweats, turn on the tv and sit on the couch. I haven't done much since.

Out of the mouths of babes!
Thank you all for the words of encouragement on this first day of my journey. My run to the consignment shop was a success, but I did keep one pair of old sweats for exercise, as advised by many of you wonderful people. I also went to the grocery store and bypassed all the junk food isles, including the bakery! Fresh fruit…
