Are they different? What is the active part of submission? I’m struggling right now with being me. I am stubborn. I am difficult to move.
I would like to change that.
I’ve taken a different approach to my physical health by taking action in my exercise. That’s something that [...]

I’m choosing to do a gratitude post today because what I really want to do is whine and complain about being miserably sick (along with my 2 1/2 year old…) on my birthday, but I know that’s not the graceful way out of this particular “down time”.

Sorry for the poor timing on this one. I have been sick for the past several days. And I broke some weight records…in the wrong direction. But, I am going to pick myself up and, like my son, say - “Oh well!”
No loss. Much gain. (How many do-overs [...]

Virtually stayed the same. Technically up .6, but in the world of rounding, there’s no change.
I’ve been practicing the “doing the same thing and expecting something different” insanity here. Got not much else to say on the matter. Let’s talk next week.
