Introduction: Thank you A Plucky Procrastinator


OK, so A Plucky Procrastinator made me quit procrastinating and return to writing. So yet another new journey begins -- again.

How did this start? Writing? According to my mom, I started writing before I was old enough to write. I would fuss at her to write down my thoughts -- songs, whatever.

This journey? A little more than two years ago, when my daughter started college, I started a new job; teaching and college -- a combined certification/Master's program, all on the same day.

Six months ago? The stress of so many changes led to a soda habit, food habit, and weight, which lead to more stress. Four months ago. . . the Journey began again. I decided it was time to break the bad habits, lose a little weight to help me feel better about myself and do something for me.

My husband's fondness for garage sales and auctions lead to a $15 Huffy bike about 5 miles from my house - which lead to riding. I am hooked - a new habit. A new Cannondale bike for my birthday and as of today, lost 32 pounds.

Today's stats:  Cruising +20 Min Steady 1:15

I'm hoping one new good habit will lead to another and I will return to writing regularly. I know a writer who doesn't write isn't a writer at all.
