That reminds me of something I was thinking about last night. I, too, saw that quote where Heather says she's fine 99% of the time. So I started trying to calculate what percent of the time I'm fine. You know, focus on the positive, instead of feeling like a total failure because I get D once a month.

So if I define fine as no D, and it only happens once a month, that means the other 29 or 30 days I'm fine. So, grab your calculator Bev, I think that's 97% of the time I feel fine!! So why am I beating myself up for the other 3%? Not that I'm going to run out for hot fudge, but I'm sure going to be a little easier on myself when I get D despite my best efforts.

A friend of mine says there are no bad days, just good days and "growth" days. It's all a matter of attitude! Isn't that a great way to look at it!

Best to all!
