Feeling so, so today, nothing I can't handle. i just wish i didn't have to handle it at all!! Wishful thinking. Had a fairly good night's sleep which is rare, didn't get up once. I felt more refreshed this a.m. I decided a nice relaxing hottub soak was in order. hubby was out so I crawled in, so... soothing, muscles just relax. Soft music from my favorite station paying in the background. Then I gave myself a good lathering of jasmine creme and a quick facial. I wish everyone one of you could enjoy this feeling with me.
I am on a special diet, my hubby is also on it. It is an 11 day diet. It is called " A Diet 4 Idiots" you can find it on the web. i think it's just www. diet4idiots.com. If not I'll check my favorites to get the exact website. you can go there a peruse the material, lots of info. It says you can lose up to 9 pounds in 11 days. i've been on it before and it works. We are on day 7 and my hubby has already lost 9 pounds and i've lost 8. There is a one time fee of 19.99 ( I think ). then you can generate as many diets as you want for as long as you want. After the 11days you get 3 cheat days. it does work, honest.
Well, I'm late for having my breakfast, not good. Then i have to get my birthday cards addressed and ready to send out. I always have my cards bought a year in advance and in a thoughtfulness Album. Now that's OCD and perfectionism. LOL
Be well, Debbie

Your hot tubbing days are just beginning, isn\'t that a nice thought? I hope the weather doesn\'t get too bad in your neck of the woods. Stay safe, hugs Cathy
So how come you are feeling just so-so today? Any special reason or just one of those days? I know how that is all too often. The shorter daylight and colder temperatures and gray gloomy skies really take the energy out of me. But the last 3 days, I have done the same thing you did today. I fill up the tub with hot water and I read for about 20 minutes and then I listen to some soft meditative music and relax and get close to God by talking to him and praying. I\'ll do that for about 30 minutes and when I get out of the tub, I am so refreshed. It\'s awesome. Anyways. I hope you feel better and good luck with your diet.
Debbie, I am happy you at least feel so so..... Sometimes that is better than down down. I love that you have your hot tub and you find so much joy in using it. It seems to be very good for you. I hope your diet brings you some comfort in its end result. Just be careful that it is healthy for you. I lost 35 pounds in 6 months just reducing my portions and drinking half my body weight in ounzes of water. I have maintained and feel so much better. I exercise at least four days a week. It seems to keep me emotionally healthier, although I have my weaknesses. I hold you in my heart and lift you in prayer for a continued positive moving forward journey my friend. Thank you for all your sweet messages and hugs. Hugs, Shelly
O.C.D. or not, I think that is cool. Here I just typed a one page list of all my birthdays and I thought I was doing good. Had them all on scratch paper. Now the cards for the year, I may work on that. Have been printing them on the computer, but just learned. I can almost feel the water, smell the candles and hear the music, must be the poetic way you descibe it, instead of just saying..jumped in the tub..keep it up I like it. Naomi
