New Year's Eve 2010


It's now been 6 month's since I wrote my first blog...never did get off the ground very well. Here's to being more regular at it this coming New Year 2010! Menopause has been a real struggle for me the past 4-5 years. Mainly the moodiness and depression that has come with it. I have been trying to make a concerted effort the past few months to deliberately 'count my blessings' and it really DOES help alot to give me a better perspective on my day. Dare I admit I have (again) decided to try to lose weight this coming year? I really don't care about impressing anyone--I merely don't like how I feel or look, and need to get it under better control for the sake of my health--and personal sense of well being. It is just so hard when living alone, to not make food my comforter---Holy Spirit, I need you more and more this year to be to me the 'Comforter' Jesus promised me you would be....lead me into all truth, and cause me to bring glory to Jesus----even me....

  2. Best wishes with this tough but worthy endeavor. I've found that feeling good will reflect in every other area of your life.

    It looks like you know where to get some extra strength when needed. But, let me know if you need a human-boost to cheer you on.... I'm just an email away.
