HAPPY SIXTH OF JULY !

Oops, seem to have missed the first through the sixth some how.  I feel like the kid in school just off for the summer and looking at it flying by with me 2 steps behind. I LOVE LOVE LOVE summer.  (Except that year I had to go to summer school for math. UGH, that was THE most horrid summer ever. I made sure I passed everything after that one summer of torture!)
Even though we live in Paradise and have "summer" year round it is still a psychological thing about June, July and August being summer vacation.  It is nicer swimming in the 85 degree pool during the summer than the 72 degrees in January. But it's more than that.  It is a state of mind that just feels so much more relaxing. I WANT to be lazy and sit around and nap in a chair out in the shade of the yard. I WANT to bring a good book outside to read till I fall asleep. I even WANT (are you sitting down?) to get up early and see the day begin in all it's glory.  Summer is just special. And this summer is just brighter and lighter and just drifting by as quickly as ever.

I have been working with my new group of Over Eaters this past month.  I got my 30 day chip for abstaining from eating between meals and/or over eating at meals. I haven't lost a heck of a lot of weight from my body but I am loosing so much weight off my mind. This group is AMAZING and it is the perfect time of the year to have joined. The summer heat reminds me of all these extra pounds I am carting around. I'm enjoying going out into the pool to exercise each day while enjoying the beauty of where I am.  In fact, I'm enjoying everything more. Even Husband!

Is it the fact that it is Summer or the fact that I am becoming a better person or a combination of the two? Either way, Life is Good these days. Summer is here and so am I.
