Everyday I keep saying to myself that I will start tomorrow.I will quit smoking,tomorrow. I will stick to my budget,tomorrow. I won't yell,tomorrow. I'll be more patient,tomorrow. I will be a better mom,tomorrow.I won't eat myself to sleep,tomorrow. I will do it all, tomorrow.
So, I decided to do something to help tomorrow become today!
4months ago I let the world (my world) know via Face book the truth about where I was at. I had left college and moved back to Seattle. I was a mess. I was depressed and binge drinking. I never left my house.
I posted a real picture of myself. Getting honest really helped me start to get my life back. I got sober and got a sponsor. I started working the steps of AA. I quit smoking. I started going to the gym everyday. I lost 25 pounds. I was writing down everything I spent and sticking to a budget.
The truth is I have worked really hard to get my life back on track.
But, it is also true that I am still struggling with some things.
I started smoking again after 2 months. I really want to quit,tomorrow.(Seriously,tomorrow!)
I haven't been writing down what I spend and I haven't been sticking to my budget.
I have been religiously going to the gym. But I know I would be losing a lot more weight if I stopped eating so much, especially at night. I keep saying I won't eat so much,tomorrow.
I have been doing a lot of good things for my son. He got a Big Brother. I am going on all his school field trips. I am going to a NHA parenting group. We started family counseling. But I still find myself saying every day I will be more patient, tomorrow. I will do better, tomorrow.
So, I am going to come here every day and be honest about all of the things I want or say I am going to do tomorrow. I hope that it really can help tomorrow become today.
Tomorrow 12/1/11 is my new smoking quit day.
See you tomorrow!
