     Like I said, I went easy tonight. Not only because it was my birthday but also because I was exceptionally tired. Last night was not a restful sleep and I was feeling it today. The two dinky tuna sandwiches I had along with the yogurt and oatmeal cookies also didn't help any. Oh well, not every day is a winner. It may not have been a winner winner, but ai sure did have a chicken dinner! Roasted za'tar thighs with garlic chickpeas. Oh yeah, and ice cream cake for dessert. I give no damns tonight. Not one. 
     Here's to the beginning of another year and hopefully a journey that sees me getting physically better, mentally better and spiritually better. Huzzah!
