3. of or pertaining to optimism.

I’m still alive. Gained a few pounds, but not much! I am optimistic.

Optimistic that the focus and determination will be back soon, now that summer is over and the Holidays will shortly be done. I usually don’t follow through my New Year resolutions, but 2010 is a special year for me.

I’m struggling with a few illnesses right now, pulmonary illnesses that is, therefore I can’t work out as much as I wish I could. However, the motivation will be back soon. My mom is doing great too for those whom have been wondering, since she’s also a member of BS. She had a knee replacement 4 weeks ago and is struggling with pain, but soon enough she will be pain-free and regain freedom to do all of the things she has always wanted to do without limitations!

Hope you’re all hanging in there!

Yes, over seventy six hours and still going.

I won’t lie and say everything is great and never sucked before because I wouldn’t be true to my supporters here, nor to myself. I’d hate it.

But I’ve made it through 3 days cheat-free.

I’m tired, but not because of lack of energy and food, but because my youngest is sick. She’s had a stomach ache for the last 3 days and has barely eaten, and kept waking up at night crying, saying she wanted to sleep with me. However, we have a strict rule in our home that mommy and daddy’s bed is a private bed, and so is our bedroom. We want to teach them that their bedroom is their private room where they do private things, and that our bedroom serves the same purpose.

She did go back to sleep but I just can’t seem to figure out why she’s in pain. The flu, maybe? I’m feeling SO sleep deprived today.

I wish you all a wonderful weekend to come!
