Yardy, not as well as I'd like. I found out that the "no alchohol" thing is actually making me LESS spiritual. It is stressful (and stress does nothing to help with spiritual growth) going out and having to say yes to water ( I don't like sodas) when all the other glasses at the dinner table are of a red or pale yellow persuasion. So I have parted ways with the author of the book I was reading, and modified that part. Only social drinking outside of the home. I feel much happier.

I have kept up with my pledge to run at least 2.5 miles every morning. I have missed only about 2 mornings because it was too cold. And most importantly I am still trying to view everything and everyone in my life as a positive experience. This part is a lot of work, but it is very rewarding....I don't anticipate having any problems keeping this up.


I hope you can give us a clue about your book. I want a signed copy when it is finished.

Ms Amy: I hope you'll revisit those episodes one day.

So Mrs. Alito cried during the hearings... what was that about?
