It’s already 2009! How time flies!
Along with this new beginning, change I believe for me is likely in order. But before I look on to the next year before me I would like to take a few moments to ponder some of the life changes and accomplishments which occurred for me in the last year.
As 2008 began I was living in Spokane with my sister, while I attended college at the Falls, but in all honesty the first real accomplishment for the year began around September. It was then that I decided upon several required major life changes. I quit smoking cigarettes after smoking for 19 years while at the same time I also cleaned up other life hindering habits. I moved to the country where I now live. There is no running water or indoor plumbing, and the electricity is off the grid. My diet also got a drastic overhaul. I quit eating meat, cut way back on sweets and started an herb dietary supplement regiment and exercise program.
Over the last few months and because of these changes I have gained back a few needed pounds and increased my overall body muscle. I feel and look healthier than I have in years.
In the last few months of 2008 I went to the Chiropractor several times to work on my posture and I put several hundred dollars into dental work. For the first time in my life I grew out my beard, letting it grow for several months.
During the past year love again was found and lost, which was probably for the best.
I know that 2009 will be bringing many changes in my life, all for the better, maybe soon I will figure them out.
