Happy Fifth Anniversary to Less Dana

This morning Russ told me he renewed my blog subscription. “What day is it?” I asked. May 13 is my blog anniversary. It is hard to believe that five years ago today I started writing this daily blog. In the beginning it was a way to raise money for the Food Bank while I lost weight. During these five years I have lost, gained, lost and gained many pounds. Unfortunately I am on the up side now. I may not always be perfect in my eating and exercising, but in the last half decade I have stuck to writing daily.
According to the stats on my blog I have written 1,831 different blogs. God bless you people that read it. Despite the discipline of writing everyday I still sometime get to eleven at night and say, “Oh Shit, I forgot to write my blog.” And that’s Shit with a capital S.
I wonder if I should continue, but then I say, I can’t quit now because I have not reached my goal weight and kept it off for a year. I am always on the way up or the way down, but not very good at holding at one place.
When I started writing If you told me I would still be doing it five years later I would have told you that was crazy. What is even more unbelievable is that people read it. Thank you for your years of support, your non-judgmental comments and the smiley faces. I appreciate most the people who know when I am sarcastic and don’t take me too seriously.
This blog morphed into the minutiae of my life. Who knows where it will go or if I can keep at, but as of now I guess I need to keep writing until I find the secret.
