Re: OK IM A MESS--BRENDA!

[Guest guest]

Slap yourself so that you stop beating yourself up! Just kidding.

That's a joke, but you really need to stop beating yourself up.

I suspect that you've taken care of everyone this Christmas

Season and you're not taking care of you.

Remember, you need to make time to reflect, resolve and do! And it

has to be time just for you. You can't reflect when you're taking

care of everyone else.

And guess what! The world will no stop revolving if you let everyone

at home take care of themselves for a while.

, you need some " me " time. Go " offsite " just by yourself, not

with friends, but with your best friend and most enthusiastic

cheerleader--BRENDA. Take a nice light run/walk. Invite God into

your heart, and enjoy the wind, rain or sun. Nature will remind you

that you are part of something bigger and that God has a plan for you.

But you can't hear the plan when the TV is blaring, relatives are

chatting, the kids are laughing and the baby is crying.

You know you can do this. Now go do what you know you need to do.

Eat NORMALLY. Do NOT diet. Dieting is over. Dieting got you

morbidly obese.

The extra pounds will come off when you go back to NORMAL

GUIDELINES. Starving yourself will only get you back into the yo-yo

diet mode. We need to move past that way of thinking.

You are the butterfly on the hands of your angel. Fly. It's your

birthright to fly. And you know that your wings will only carry you

when you do what's right for you (and it's all in that binder that

Richmond gave you.)

Have I told you lately that I love you my dear friend!

You are absolutely right!! Im taking your advice!! You know me so

well and always know just what I need to hear. I am going to take

time to listen.

I was telling a friend just a little while ago, that I was so worn

out from the craziness at work(Im off from 12/23 to 1/3) and I think

that I just thought, heck I will relax and relaxed everything. Wrong

thinking!! I needed to take the time to take care of me!!

Thank you!!
