First of all- GREAT BLOG LORI!

My bad...and my hubs thought I was still pms-ing, or menopausal..really...this emotion only belongs to the female gender?   Mmmm...can you imagine what emotion I held back on....Lorain Bobbitt came to mind.

And I also refer to Silverstar- Jan. 12 blog.

Still have to keep myself in check and in controll, especially when I'm doing like 48 hours of domestics..in 12. Caring for a mom, starting my own business..etc.  Being a widow almost every other month...well maybe not that...I'll take that as a 'perk'!  

I wear many, many hats, and truth be told, am proud to be an individual who is successful in juggling.

Amazingly my vocabulary is a bit more sophisticated, or responses are more subtle...because I pause.  I'd rather have a understanding smirk than...an evening of air so icy cold, you can cut it with a knife.

My grandmother's wise words were....I am in controll of the ship and tone of the environment....(she offered a few more...) ..but they all  have certainly been in the forefront of my mind lately.

Yeah,  pissed that health issues is the #1 reason to quit...and still wish I never started...thanks again to my wonderful girlfriends!! 

I'm not at the point of 'embracing'my quit, but am thankful of the support, and educational resources that are available in this site, and that I'm successful in ending each day...smoke free.

And Lori...keep it rolling doll!

Keeping it real one day at a time. 

Kathy
