Day 72

I always seem to have difficulty starting a blog post.  I took a writing class in college where my professor (who happened to be not only an excellent prof, but also a great writer) embedded in me the importance of catching  the attention of your audience with an unforgettable opening.
I have attempted to write this blog everyday for the last week and alas, the best I can come up with is "I always seem to have difficulty starting a blog post".
OK, now that that's out of the way, this should get easier....... I think the key word here is "should"

Nope, not getting easier.  At this rate my next blog will be complete sometime around day 893, You and I both know that that is not acceptable so sit back and get ready for a not so great blog post.

Today was day 12 without any soda pop (#9).   Here is what I have learned so far from this challenge;

•  I am one of those lucky people who didn't have the dreaded withdrawal headaches
• There is no acceptable substitute for a cold Diet Coke or Dr. Pepper. 
•  I am a soda pop addict.  I am almost 1/2 way through with this and it is not getting any easier. 
• I am OK with soda pop addictions  

Today is day 11 of taking daily walks  (#5)  Here is what I have learned so far from this challenge;

• I am not one of those lucky people who enjoys or looks forward to exercise.  
• There is no acceptable walk that feels like bumming around the house. 
• I am not an exercise addict, the need to exercise does not overwhelm me... ever. 
• My muscles are OK with me not being an exercise addict.  

I attempted to attempt learn how to play chess (#39)  Here is what I have learned so far from this challenge;

• I don't like chess, I think that I understand how to play, I just don't want to.... ever.
