Another Alter Ego – Mary Goround
“Who is this Mary Gore-und person”
“It’s not Gore-und, it’s Go-round.”
“Oh, I get it.”
That was the conversation when the 6-Week Honour Your Health chart was posted on the wall. There are more than 25 names on the chart and all are aliases (weird word – aliases).
As you can guess, I am Mary Goround and she is one of my many alter egos. Mary Goround is as tall as she is wide. She always smiles and encourages everyone. She knows a lot of “traditional” Granny advice and stuff. She loves to cook and seems warm and positive. She is her own worst enemy. Sigh, I am definitely Mary. Mary was lighter in her youth but, as women age, we all know they get thicker especially from having babies and menopause. So, she has accepted this as normal and unstoppable. Actually, why stop it? It’s what nature intended, right? But now she is getting the big, bad warning signals from her body and her doctor that all is not well in Mary’s world. Diabetes, arthritis, changing sleep patterns and high blood pressure are not acceptable in this day and age. We have ways to get and stay healthy. So, the 6 Week Honour Your Health Challenge is Mary’s way of coming into this century, maybe she’ll even make it into this millennium.
I’m trying. Thanks for listening. ;D Diane
