"I think I can, I think i can!"

Good Evening dear friends.

It's been a while. 

I promise I have an excuse,

A few of them actually.

November 22 - My dear sister got married (So clearly the days previous as well as the day of were insane.)

November 24 - Happy Thanksgiving... I am SORRY but I was off spending time with my family... you know - the loved ones. So Happy turkey day! Hope you all had as much to be grateful for as I do. As hard as life can be at times, we are all very very blessed.

Next, {Insert work here, there was a lot of it}

I've just been busy. 

Oh... I failed to mention my parents.

Yes, I love them.

I really do.

But when they fly out to Hawaii the Sunday after dear sisters wedding, and leave 3 siblings for me to care for...You start to go insane.

So basically...I am exhausted.

But weigh in day is tomorrow, and I think I am at least down a pound. Woot!

This journey gets more and more intense every week.

I feel like "the little engine that could."

Your mom ever read that to you?...

Here's a clip to explain what I mean.

(Man, everything was better in the 60's)

Moral of the story is... No matter how difficult a situation gets... Don't quit.

Keep telling yourself you CAN... and you WILL.
And then all at once you'll be standing at the top of that mountain, and - like the little Engine - you will be saying, "I THOUGHT I could!"

Goodnight

-Syd
