Hello all! My friend is getting better with each day. I'm not sure that she will make lifestyle changes, such as quit smoking or exercise, to help prevent her from getting more clots...but it gave me the extra push I needed to get off the couch and work on my own health!
In an earlier blog, I wrote about how much I missed being outside. My front and back porch had always been my smoking areas and still triggered cravings. My Ex family helped me to take a good look at the reason for this and I was able to see that "I" was allowing myself to think as a smoker that was missing something rather than as a NON-SMOKER that wasn't missing anything other than the beauty of the world.
I am happy to report the combination of adjusting my attitude, my health, the beautiful weather, and breaking myself from the Internet habit helped me to reclaim my outdoor space. And it welcomed me back with glory! My Ruby-crowned Kinglet still visits and the hawk I told you about was on the fence post a couple of days ago. As you can imagine, I have a lot of yard work to catch up on after 7 months of neglect. It is officially spring/summer in Florida so I'm going to have to push hard to get it back in order before the weather gets to hot to breathe.
I wish each of you a blessed and beautiful day and remember.... Life is short, live every day like it's your last.
Marilyn the Happy Non-Smoker
