Today I weighed in at 130 lbs.
My Mom came up here today. She will be fasting with us also for a while. It will be nice to see her again. I am also glad to see so many family members reconsider the way they are living their lives and look to make more harmonious changes. My younger sister who left Saturday night after 7.5 days of fasting is feeling better about herself and remains free from the habit of smoking.
Today we are taking an excess of cucumbers from the garden and making both sweet and dill pickles. It is really not bad being around food during the fast. I enjoy smelling the smells.
It was a nice day of visiting an I look forward to more reconnecting with Mom.

Darol, I was saddened to only hear of your illness last week. I sincerely wish you the best with this difficult journey. If attitude and positive thinking deliver a worthy foe, then it seems to me that this disease has picked a ready opponent. Your personal journey reinforces yet again the value of life. And as I look at the picture of your son and read the reflection of your journey with Spring at your side, I can appreciate the impact you've had on them and they on you.
ReplyDeleteI wish you the best my friend.
