Change in my life...

This song, eloquently covered by my favorite band, has been playing in my head a lot over the last couple days.

"There's a change in my life since you came along"

As odd as it may sound, I think the person who came along and brought that change was me. I am the only one who can make any changes and who can decide whether or not change can happen. And I choose change, for good.

So something happened today that I wasn't expecting. I went to get dressed to run some errands, and the notch on my belt that I've been at for about the life of the belt was suddenly too loose. I thought, no way. But I went to one tighter, and it fit! AND I could still breathe! AND it made me feel like my shorts were too big! I'm still in shock.

Sometimes it is hard to celebrate small goals like that, but tonight, I think I'll have a 2 point ice cream bar to commemorate! It's the small goals that add up! One day at a time...
