Day 28 DRUMROLL 4 weeks
How good is that. I just ticked the Month 1 Box. WOOOOO HOOO. I should have waited till the 1st of August but I cant, Im too excited. So what was month one like. I feel like Ive been to the Amusement park and went on every ride. Some rides were scary and I was very afraid and some rides made me laugh my proverbial off. And as I leave the amusement park I note Im stll alive, I feel very happy, and I turn to my friend and say those scary rides were not as bad as everyone made out and I laugh. However would I want to repeat month one again. Short answer, NO. Im just very happy that I survived and didn't injure any of my family or work collegues. To celebrate I would like to climb up a hill and have a Julie Andrews "Sound of Music moment" and sing "Climb every mountain" at the top of my lungs with my arms twirling around the top of my head and feel the wind of on my face and revel in the freedom of being free from darts. I hope is getting a visual caus that's how I feel. I just wish that all of us could climb the mountain together and have a Julie Andrews moment. Yes I have maintained my sanity, I know questionable from this post and I only lost my mummy at the amusement park three times as I wandered off on my own tangent and had one of those "Forgetful moments." We have a lost child" Thank you everyone. Maintain sense of humour and remember "Climb every mountain, follow your dream". Luckily you cant hear me sing. Im soooo Happy xxxxxxx
Congratulations on reaching one month Nannette...well done!! You go and have your Julie Andrews moment as you deserve it.
Hi Nannette, Have you noticed that there are those who come and go on this site and then disappear completely? Wish a few others would remain regulars. I just hope those who come and go haven't disappeared because their wheels fell off briefly... Mind you, it's good to hear from those who have gone a year or beyond and take the time to speak of their success
Hi Lia. I'm not sure what the go is with the "come and goers". I hope they come back to share their successes at some point . I agree with you it's nice and motivating to hear from those who have gone over a year and beyond and share their story. All the more reason for us to stay on track so next year we can share our success story. Make sure you come back after your o/seas trip as everyone says we like and we will miss your posts. This time next year feather, cranky 76 , yourself Mj45 and me will be holding the one year torch for inspiration for others. That would be good would it not. Xxx
Thanks Nannette. Looking forward to surviving and doing the hard yards. Time will tell how much we either need this site and/or our supporters. It's been so good to have a communal wall on which to post our thoughts. Therapeutic. It has been an amazing two way street. I have noticed that comments echo individual successes with daily battles but also offer genuine encouragement for others. I don't think we want to see others fail. Will be back late September. I hope there are some "familiar faces" when that happens. I really hope to see the likes of feather, cranky76, MJ45 & you when I return. There won't be any duty free Davidoff cigarettes in my inbound shopping this time... and I don't even care... Hasta Luego...
