Bagels

My sign is Cancer and my Mother planned very well. It is exactly 6 months from my birthday to Christmas meaning that I never had to bemoan my fate as some of my friends did who received DOUBLE DUTY GIFTS.” This toy is for your birthday and for Christmas since they are so close.” The reason for my remarking about this is because I noticed I am listed as being 64 years old and I haven’t reached that birthday yet. I do tend to quibble.

I have a personality best described as addictive which translates in my book to self centered. I have always wanted what I want, when I want it: NOW or sooner. I took what I wanted by any means because I deserved it with no concern for others. My favorite mixed drink was MORE followed by MUCHMORE. Today I broke a pattern. Usually I bring fresh bagels to the Office on Fridays for the others (3) that work with me. Due to scheduling changes by the others I brought them today, Thursday. Driving to the Office, smelling the fragrance of the fresh bagels, I had a thought( danger sign ) that now I could get another tomorrow only for me and no one would know. This thought was so evocative of my old thinking patterns that I was unable to resist laughing at myself. In the past four months I have lost 35 pounds by changing my eating habits but just lower your guard for a second and right back to ground Zero.

Yesterday was a gift, warm sunny and just greaattt! Today, February, cool, cloudy and drizzling and just above uncomfortable. Tomorrow will be a surprise as I have decided to let God solo. God is showing promise and seems to need my direction less and less every day.

Yesterday 85%

Today 65%

Tomorrow ??
