Hi Julie, Thank you so much for your comments on my short story blog. There will be another Episode soon. I am going to make it a Serial and put one out about once a week. In each story, I am going to have some kind of lesson that the characters learn. Hope you enjoy them. In the mean time I will still write regular blogs about what I am doing to improve myself. Today I am going to write a blog about Focus. Thanks again for your encouragement.

Well things could be better. I am having a hard time just going day by day. I joined a weight loss challenge at work thinking it would help motivate me. It's only been one week and I'm ready to quit. My attitude is bad and I know why. Nothing I can do about it. :-( sorry I don't want to be a downer but that's where I am.

Thanks for checking up on me ! I am frustrated. I've improved my habits, so I think I should be losing. I really believe it's the stress / cortisol thing that's holding me up. I have a management job, and with budget cuts, have had to layoff people. we've lost all benefits. Like so many companies in our industrial area, we are barely hanging on. Unemployment is about 15% in our area.

BUT ! It's starting to warm up a little and spring will be coming. It's staying lighter longer after work. Soon I'll be able to take walks during the week and start working in the garden. Then I expect I'll get some results.

Happy Sunday!
