I'm Melting!

Eternal Celebrations

So, after Christmas, vacation in Puerto Rico, Valentine's Day, Easter, Delegates' Conferences out of town, and the National Genealogical Conference in Ohio, I have now found two whole Chihuahuas back on my body!  Using the excuse that I would get back on my diet regime "after....this or that..."  I found myself just gaining more weight. Obviously, that tactic does not work!  There is always another vacation, another business trip, another wedding, another birthday, another (insert name of celebration here). 

I also wish to honor here the memory of my dear little brother, who left us in March.  This stark reality of human mortality should have made me much more attuned to my own errant ways, but I'm just now taking the time to ponder that.

So, recognizing that I am not super-human, and need to practice self control both in eating and daily practices, I continue with this life long quest.  I say continue rather than begin again, because it is obviously an "always" thing!  Need to change that old thinking (like, if I mess up one day, it's all over....so, what the heck....who cares....etc).

So, off to Claim Jumper today, to see how I do....Yep, it's another celebration.  A  gathering of the sibs with Ma for a  late Mothers' Day Celebration.

Hmmmm....should I send the link to this post to my fellow celebrants  BEFORE or AFTER dinner?
