The Good Life
Dec. 21st, 2004 09:23 amHappy Solstice, everyone! I had thought about holding a vigil tonight but I'm not sure about that now since I'm feeling a bit run down today EDIT: And I just learned that Longest Night was last night, dammit. I don't want to compromise my immune system right before the New Orleans trip. I have a few hours to ponder, I guess.

mckitterick:
Name three things you've done in the last year to substantially improve your life.
1. Got my tubes tied
2. Lost nearly 40 pounds
3. Started to get a handle on personal finances
This was actually kind of tricky because I wanted to limit them to decisions I made that required action and effort. Experiences like Ren Fest and my relationship withkijjohnson and mckitterick, while certainly positive improvements, weren't really things I did. I put myself in a position for them to happen, yes, but it wasn't a single, decisive effort on my part. So I'm not counting those. The three items I listed are things that took a great deal of consideration and no small amount of will. I'm proud I did them.
