It's a beautiful Easter Sunday! May you have a blessed and serene holiday. It's also my daughter-in-laws birthday. She and my son are spending a happy day together and since his birthday is on the 9th, they will be taking a little mini-vacation. I'm glad that they are so happy.
It is also weigh in day. Yup...as promised I weighed in. The tally is 35 pounds. I guess I'm doing okay with it now. I found that strict works for the most part as long as I have a goal. Today I will cheat. I will enjoy Easter dinner with the family and then go back on the strict until I have my son and daughter in law over for their birthdays. I have to admit to faltering a bit this month though. Not so much that it counted but the pressure was ON! And that's when I lose focus...still.
Its a day to day struggle. I get tired sometimes and just want to be like "everyone else" sometimes but I'm forging ahead. I see the difference in my clothes and in my step. There is a lighter cantor to it these days.
I am under the gun- pressure wise. The math/statistics class is proving to be more difficult than any classes that I've encountered to date. I'm literally teaching it to myself. I'm passing- but just barely. The teacher speaks little English and I'm just so lost. I'm not the only one either. Sadly- my 4.0 went out the window which infuriates me. What are you going to do, right? (sigh)
The book comes out May 1st. There is a magazine article in 201 Magazine to follow in June. I'm lining up book signings. One for Royal Caribbean cruise lines...I'm hoping will put my work on the map- so to speak.
If you want to look it up see my new website at:
conniemurrayslocum.com
if you have a book club or just a bunch of friends who purchased the book and want to have a little get together, let me know! I'll sign the books for them.
So life is good- busy and full...I'm happy but at times overwhelmed. I will still blog as much as I'm able. Summer is coming and that should free me up at least a little because there is no school thankfully. There will be signings and readings though so ... I will keep you posted!
Have a terrific day. AND remember:
YOU look as good as you can for today. Tomorrow you will look that much better! Do not let your perception of your body stand in the way of you having a good time! Stay positive and remember, I'm STILL right here with you! See you next Blog! ;-)
