woo hoo!!!
i'm actually doing something very good for myself. i'm not smoking (much) since my mom's in town, and i feel that today's 1/2 cigarette (at 7pm!) may well be my last. i'm not putting pressure on myself, but i'm doing well. i already feel 75% better. since my mom arrived tuesday afternoon, i've only had 8 cigarettes! that is AMAZING for me. normally, i can't possibly do that.
today we went to the arboretum and walked around for hours. yesterday we took a ferry to bainbridge and walked all around downtown. tomorrow my mom is talking at a church on capitol hill and then we'll walk around pioneer square. my mom is a slow walker and tires easily. this makes me very anxious, but i'm trying to be patient. i know all of this walking is good for her, and i want to encourage her to be healthier. in KC it's really too hot to actually do much of anything, so it's important for her to get some excercise while she's here.
now i will make us a beautiful salad and we'll enjoy the cool breezes this evening. bon soir!
