Thurs. March 10

I'm in a funk!  Anyone else?  Yesterday we observed Ash Wednesday at our home and church.  A time of reflection, self-examination, and sacrafice.  I feel I need to do more of the 'self-examination.'  Why can't I sustain "being a better me?"  Does anyone know what I mean?  I hears 'sitting on the bench' at our last weigh-in and I thought "How can you do that when a lot of people are following Lighten Up in the N-H?"  Now I know.  I'm starting to put of getting a grip until tomorrow and already in March 10 tomorrows have past!  Hang tough everyone and DO ANYTHING BUT DON'T CAUSE YOURSELF GRIEF.   We have strong minds.  We can do this.
