I thought about deleting this profile. I've been so embarrassed about not finishing the 18-week challenge. I got all the way to 12 weeks and ... ...what? I don't really know what specifically caused me to give up. Pain maybe but that's always been there.

I just found this website today. I was perusing through different things and I ran across your profile. Cool Wolverine picture by the way! Anyway, I thought that I'd say Hi. Have a lovely day!

Hey Micky - I was reading your assignment 11 and was floored. I've gone thru (and am still going thru at points) what you did. Not being able to leave the house, drive a car, walk into a store. The fact that you were able to turn your life around, take the kids to the beach, get OUT, and especially the volunteer work, that's so HUGE. I've also come far from my housebound days but still feel the "edge" come on from nowhere. At that point I do whatever I can to calm and still myself. Breathe, meditate, nap, whatever. So far so good. I wish you continuted success in your journey and your transformation....CJ

It amazes me how many people go through this. It's not something you usually talk about. Being on the beach, driving there, all that -- it was pretty amazing. It felt like coming alive again. Thanks so much for your visit, and your words of encouragement.

Wishing you a most beautiful day, Micky! I was touched by your posted intentions..."Make me a channel of your PEACE..."; it was heartwarming since I listen to St. Francis prayer daily and humbly do all I can to live by it also. Cheering you onto your daily transformation success with MEGA Starjumps....YOU WILL SUCCEED VICTORIOUSLY!!! God's Abundant Blessings, My love and hugs filled with much appreciation, Diane

MickyO wrote at 09:51 PM on Aug 04, 2008

Thanks very much Diane. :) That's my daily prayer too -- has been ever since I was a kid though sometimes I forget to say it. The day always goes better when I remember though for a few years now I've added ("...Whoever YOU are.") :D I appreciate your comments, your cheerful enthusiasm and most especially your kindness. :) Thanks so much. (:

Tim wrote at 12:11 AM on Aug 02, 2008

Great comment back there. Yeah I hear you on all of that other stuff. I've found it interesting to project thoughts and feelings. Hope I'm doing okay. Was laughing a little on it too. Love to laugh, your friend Tim.

MickyO wrote at 11:56 PM on Aug 02, 2008

Thanks Tim. I'm glad you stopped by today. I love to laugh too. Keep smiling, laughing and writing. :)

I Am

I'm 48 and overweight. My goal is, 49 and looking FINE. Then 50 and magNIFTY (it is too a word), then 51 and havin' FUN, then 52 and er...um...TERRIFIC! (and so on, ad infinitum!) :D Btw I don't look anything like Wolverine (my profile pic). :D I think my hubby would object to the whiskers. However, this picture is special to me because of a forum conversation recently. A very talented Transformer named Chris Haro posted an interesting questions on the forum: "Your cartoon self, before and after, and why." I chose Wolverine as my "after" because of his strength and ability to heal. I want that for myself. :)

My Goals

After reading Jim Terrell's profile, I have decided to write specific goals here beginning with a very simple dream I have had for years. I have used this dream sometimes for meditation -- I am running down a shaded country road. It's a gloriously beautiful day, and I'm strong, and light and, best of all, I'm not tired. I'm able to run and run and run. This is my specific dream -- to be able to walk, and then run, let's see -- I'll start with 1 mile -- without tiring.
