I love serenity.....can I share one new topic I used as a reply a minute ago? For me anyway, the new me HAD to add physical exercise. It is so theraputic and so good for you anyway - not to mention your outward appearance improves even if your inward appearance is about the wig-out! Everyone during hard times needs something as wonderful as this. I started out walking - pretty fast but not hard enough to hurt myself thus making me stop. I've now ended up jogging - sort of a marathon pace - after 5 months of an hour a night. I used to only make it about 8 driveways running before I had to stop and walk again for awhile. NOW! look at me go. I'm so proud of myself and it is giving hubby a very new idea to get used to...just what he needs while it is so definately just what I needed for me. One day at a time in Alanon- what my HP needed for me to join. They are a powerful team...love and serenity
it is certainly the key for me. Once I stop it, the decline begins almost inside a week and after that- forget, I am long gone...its like clockwork and its so simple and basic. thanks for the reminder always- its one of the best tools I have in my toolbox! Jean
