Day 37, 2/6/2013 - Eat, today I was true to my diet with somewhat healthy choices. My inner chant until vacation at the end of the month, "Must lose weight, must lose weight, must lose weight..." Pray, today I pray that the fog of denial will lift for one whom I loved. Fog, it's powerful; it surrounds you and seems to close in around you. Denial is powerful. Not powerful and productive, powerful and hurtful. Addictions have such power over us. And being in denial is hurtful to everyone, family, friends, etc.

Joy, my joy is simple, I spoke to my sister today. We both lead such hectic lives. I called her on a whim this morning as I drove to work. We were able to catch up in those few moments as we both drove to our offices. I told her I loved her as we said goodbye. Those few moments made my day, I hope they did the same for her. Family is so important, never take it for granted.
