STARTING OVER ESSAY . . . Hmmmmmmmmm

I think that's been my life.... ALWAYS starting over and not getting anywhere.
Well, I finally feel that particular self-produced 'rat race' is over. I've been staying home
which in this awful winter weather was quite easy to start doing. I never before 'enjoyed' staying in... always running out early in the morning, originally for work and then just as habit leaving me no time to 'do things around the house' as they say. Yesterday I noticed that this has now changed as I first went out at 4PM. My knitting projects are also being finished in a timely manner and I've finally been sticking to my Herbalife/WW combo program. I do the HERBALIFE shakes for breakfast & most lunches and then have a sensible dinner and have finally been losing weight. It's so easy with HERBALIFE. I count WW points because I want to be sure I don't go over in that "sensible" dinner (( smile )). Because of all these positive moves I feel that "starting over" will no longer represent 'me.' (( s m i l e )).

STARTING OVER ((( A G A I N ))) ?

((( heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeheh ))) Well, my resolution to keep up with this blog on a ... at least weekly basis... has FAILED badly.
I'm going to re-resolute ( ? Hmmmmm ) to do it now.
TO BEGIN - today I spent 1/2 the day cleaning clutter. That's probaby why I don't keep the blog current 'cause mostly what you'd hear about is my cleaning clutter. It's much better than it has been but there's still quite a bit to go. I'm having my friend Kiki come up this week to pick out some stuff for her new apartment. So far she's gotten unused flatware and dishes - both still in their original box. This week I've already put aside some towels, a throw, candlelsticks, a clock radio and she needs Bakeware which I probaby have in excess also. Walking around the apartment I find myself staring at spots which are now 'normally bare' which were STACKED with things for years. I MUST thank "H" here who has helped me more than he liked but has been a great help and without whom I could never even attempt this huge job.
