I need to mark this down- I was a complete slacker on yule this year, but I did give gifts, that I made myself, from ideas I came up with- this is huge in my life- absolutely epic. I also braved certain fears about connecting with people not stand in the way of my getting new amazing music, having a wonderfully fun evening with a former tutor, and reconnecting with old friends. I need to keep this steam up.
I have also taken on the idea of Healthy Eating at any Size-transforming it to Healthy living at any Size- basically the same thing, but I’m attempting to incorporate some healthful practice spiritually, and physically. I will be starting a yoga practice with the Dragon, and I have done quite a number on how we eat- anymore its meatless 60-70% of the time. That is a huge change from where we were a year ago. I no longer drink soda at work, and working on cutting down at home. I have a fruit. water, and spinach smoothie every morning, and I am working on no more eating out.
I want to get in the practice of putting the crock pot on before I go to bed. If I can get us eating home cooked meals every other day, adding in the leftovers factor- I think we can see a drop in eating out, and processed food snacks. It’s been slow but I am moving forward, and am pulling back from the big picture to look at today, just today, and maybe tomorrow. I need to reign in my focus, and be mindful of the here and the now.

I’m glad to see you are doing better! I talked to Rob and he said he had seen you and you were a little stressed to say the least. I was a little worried after our last e-mail exchange. I hope things are getting better and I hope the Dragon is doing well as well! Be well and stay safe! If there is anything you need from me, just let me know.
Hey Ian! I just have to take each day as it comes, and deal with it the best I can. Currently the Dragon has good days, and then he has really bad days. They seem to outweigh the good, anymore. For the most part though, we just remind ourselves we have each other, and that there is power in our love, and that gets us through. I hope all is well with you!
