October 1, 2010 goes down in history as sugar-free for me!

Mission Accomplished!  And yes, today was pretty easy, although my office-mate brought in donuts and coffee cake to work this morning!  Ugh!  (In her defense, she didn't know about my resolution.)  And there were a couple of times when I thought how great a cookie would taste, and as I started to think about how to get one, I suddenly remembered the goal I set.  Those little memory lapses resulted in short, tiny twinges of disappointment, but they quickly went away as I invoked my "the urge will pass whether or not I indulge in it" mantra.


I went to lunch at El Torito with my co-workers and I was so paranoid about accidentally eating sugar in something that I looked up the ingredients in tortilla chips!  Just FYI - tortilla chips do not contain sugar.

So I'm going to steal another idea while I'm at this, why not?  I got this idea from krissie is thankful, one of the bloggers that Retta follows (thanks, Retta!).  Every day I'm going to take a picture of something that I'm grateful for and then post it here.  Obviously, the idea is to focus on all the good things in your life every day.  I'm a pretty positive person and I think I do that anyway, but this project sounds fun and you can never think too positively, right? 


So here's today's:

Grateful for my home, my small humble apartment that doesn't seem like much, but to me is my sanctuary.  

What are you thankful for?  Please post in the comments!  This can be fun.  :)

Good night and Naturally Sweet Dreams to you!
