Dry January complete! My calendar tracker proved to be a fun, accountable way to chart the days. Looking back on it now, it’s neat to see the simplicity and highlights of the month. Little things like coffee, ice cream, or football on TV really seem to emphasize the joy and smiley faces I found in each day. While I didn’t lose any weight in the process, I must admit I feel great and relations at home haven’t been this good in a while. From my last entry, you can see I don’t intend to carry on forever, but I do expect to adjust certain behavioral patterns and take this positive energy into February and beyond. Off to a good start!

Proud of you dad!
