Yikes! A New Year
Yikes! A New Year is just around the bend. In fact the last time I looked up from my keyboard, I saw Father Time heading to the left, his coat tails dragging behind him.
Didn't I just ring in the year 2018 a few months ago? I tried to be careful and account for my days as a responsible person would do. I made sure to give thanks for the mornings that I drew in a breath of air and released the worries of the day before.
I gave hugs, words of praise and thanks to those who deserved them; co-workers, store clerks, patients and strangers. If I missed one or two it wasn't on purpose.
In this outgoing year I learned that if I did not take care of myself no one would. I forgot that message along the way and became very ill for which I thank my primary care doctor for being on her toes and referring me to the right specialists.
Now I must start again with my exercise program and weight loss plan. I don't like being sick and I hate being overweight hence my books, The Fat Girls Club.
And that's another thing. I want to thank all the people in Kansas City who attended my book signings over the past three months. Their kind words of support as well as their book purchases, made setting up those elaborate table settings worth it!
Finally, I want to thank my 275,000 readers on Tripadvisor and over 400,000 viewers on Google Maps that pushed the numbers where they are now. And to you my supporters on Goodreads, "Thank You." You didn't have to read my messages but you did. You took time out of your busy day to read what I had to say. With a full and grateful heart I say, Many blessings to you today and well into the New Year. Cheers!
