The picture is on a desk. The brown isn't part of the picture. Up on the wall with the rest of my paintings it goes. Look forward to going back to group in December. It's very healing.
I love autumn. The colours, the cooler weather, the crispness in the air, even the odd rainy day. It's always been my favourite season. The only 2 problems.... #1 my fingernails start breaking. 11 months of the year my fingernails break very easy, but in August they are strong and long. By mid-September they start their journey of breaking again. It must be all the summer sun that helps them. The 2nd issue is, the cooler weather and rain causes flares and more pain. It's not a season that is easy on my health. Winter isn't that great either, but come Spring/ Summer - the living is easy.
I realized today that this time my life change is again different on another level. The first time I lost weight, I started April 1st. Yes, I know the date, because that was the date I started a new office job, and walked in being the 'new' me - going for the different person and size and lost the weight during the summer/autumn. By the late fall/winter I was down to 180 lbs, getting thru autumn's health issues and enjoying the weight loss. The second time was in late May. Again, by the time late fall/winter came, I was down to 185 lbs and enjoying the second new life even with health issues happening in autumn. See it?
For the first time, I am starting a life change in autumn/winter even though health flares are happening, mentally I'm in a great positive place, spiritually I'm light :) ..... optimistically planning to enjoy weight loss, better health by late winter/early spring. I wonder if my fingernails will be able to also change, and stay strong and long 12 months a year.....?
