New Beginnings

New Year's starts after all the holidays. Exercise is good for me and you but I am skipping Sunday's. We are not exercising today and going to Subway. Being good on a diet can be just a crazy haze. Energy why did you take off in a blaze. Going with small meals puts me in a daze. In life does this really pay. No grass to graze. Not doing any relays. I stuck with this diet for a week and I am amazed. No more dieting I want some s'mores. Going to have a sandwich with real mayonnaise. Sounds like this was all just a phase.

Awesome poem, Paula:-) This didn't "slip through the cracks" as it had several replies. It was asking for a poem with no replies. Congrats on your win in my contest nonetheless!

It's tough to make an acrostic write rhyme as well, but you have done an admirable job here.

I never make resolutions in the new year, especially about diet. I constantly count calories (for over 50 years now) and it's the only way to keep oneself in check. I enjoyed your focus on diet, Paula. Always love reading about foods and diets.

Thanks, for writing. Years ago I stopped making resolutions. Glad you love reading about foods and diets. So true counting calories will work. Enjoy your day with blessings................

Paula, I like an Acrostic that hold s'mores in high regard. Comfort food for trying times. -Richard
