One Word at a Time

I found this website called oneword.com and decided to use it for daily writing exercises.  I seriously need to write EVERYDAY.  Today's word:
Coaster
The tiny tickle at the bottom gave me the first thrill of my childhood. Oh, roller coaster dreams ruled my nights and in summer days they enticed me, sirens of rails and wood. Coasters were beings with mystical presence, and they formed vistas in my mind; each slope a promise.

Soup, Salad, and Sandwiches.

I realize how inconstant I am about posting.  Anyway, some self improvement updates:

1. New plan for general health includes a 10 minute walk with Liv everyday.  Eventually it'll get bumped up more, but everyone recommends starting slow even though you know you can walk for longer than that.

2.  More fruit.  I like fruit.  I've been eating a lot more fruit and shall continue to add more, especially pineapple.

3.  I've decided that I need to start altering my lifestyle now so I can be in better shape for when we try to conceive next year.  I take better care of myself when I'm pregnant than I do when I'm not, so maybe if I start acting like I'm pregnant more often, it'll be easier to get pregnant next year.

4.  I've cut down on soda.  I don't automatically get a Coke when we go out to eat, and we don't keep it at the house at all.  I mostly only drink soda at work, and I can't even finish a whole can anymore.

5.  I've decided to eat more sandwiches.  I get healthy bread already, and they're cheap and balanced meals.  Veggies, meat, dairy, grain all in one easy-to-eat deal.

6.  Also soup.  I like soup.
