Ten Years Yet Just Begun

December 17, 2006
I considered myself from then
a member of Overeaters Anonymous.
On my way to church, having eaten breakfast,
I stopped for a cappacino and sweet roll,
got into the car, told God, "This is stupid."
If planned to try OA...after that holidays.
Who would start a week before Christmas?
Me. And thank goodness. When I fell
on Christmas Eve, hurt my rotator cuff
then went to England anyway on the 27th
I could have stacked on more stupid pounds
more misery, more self-loathing.
But thank God for the nudge.
So today it's ten years with many more to come.
