Chipping At It

This week's weigh in whittled two more pounds off the twenty seven pound rebound (now 24).  Really wish I'd stuck to the plan of never allowing more than a ten pound gain.  Recommitting to that vow.  Resolving also to seeing that what is on the menu now is a body contentment not a deprivation. Old choices may taste good for fleeting moments but what it is doing internally is not worth it.  

Did not get in morning meditation, had a bunch of raking to do.  The winds have brought most of the leaves down.  They were wet from the drizzle and many seemed to glisten yellows, golds and reds. Used that time to try and work in a make shift working meditation.  The neighborhood was very quiet, just a squirrel, quite a bit of birds and me around.  It was refreshing to let thoughts come and go as they would, it just seems easier with physical activity.  It set a good tone for the first day of my 29 day giving challenge.  I was flirting  with the idea of doing it since reading about it in a blog on the Healthy You site, Merry from Sheesh.  It just seems to have come along at the perfect time.  Here is the start of my 29 Days.
