Oh you stinker! :)

Stay happy!

Ok first, I knew I was tagged before I even clicked the blog, haha. Second I totally love you more for the simple fact of "how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?" and "fool in the rain". You. Totally. Rock. Third, I lurves me some pretzels and mustard.

All that aside, you have come a long way, haven't you? I'm proud of you Morgan. It takes so much courage and inner strength to pull yourself out of a drug addicted funk. Smoking is awful, but its a minor addiction compared to the previous. Keep being so awesome :)

Now I'll have to figure out who to tag...dun dun dun. :)

Nice job Morgan. Nice to get to know the personal side of you :-)

I'm very proud of you for what you're accomplishing with your life. It takes a lot of guts and strength to stick with it, and you're doing a great job.

Think of how far you've come to remind yourself, which will help you to maintain your focus.

Pretzels and mustard ... hmmm. Never heard of that one, sounds interesting :-) But I love fresh snow peas and watermelon!

Thanks Deborah..the most difficult thing I encounter in life is keeping the focus on the goals that lay ahead in the distance. But know that the allure of them always keeps them in my sight.
As for Pretzels and mustard..must be a NY thing!!
