Day 251

Today was a good day. My eating wasn’t horrible and I was really active. I woke up too late to go running but tomorrow I will certainly go for my run. I am also going to ride my bike to my WW meeting since I’m a little nervous about the threats to NYC. I’m watching the Dateline special on 9/11 and it brings back that day so clearly. I think everyone in this country can say what they were doing on that day. I remember feeling so confused and thinking how ridiculous it was that someone would accidentally fly a plane into the World Trade Center. At the time everyone thought it was a small private plane. Then when the second plane hit, we all knew that it wasn’t an accident. The company I worked for had a big screen TV upstairs so we were all watching the news coverage. I remember watching when the first tower collapsed and the entire lobby just started screaming and crying. It was complete chaos and everyone was confused and sad. I remember feeling so alone because I didn’t have anyone to walk home with; all public transportation was suspended. The city was in a daze. I will never ever forget that day. May God bless every person who dedicates their life to service, I am so humbled and grateful. To all the police officers, fire fighters, military, nurses and doctors...Thank you!
