Contemplating a walk

I'm typically at my best in the mornings, but not sleeping at night takes any energy I have just to get up and get dressed.

We are expecting several rain storms over the next 4 or 5 days, so if I don't go for a walk today, I might as well wait until next week. Oh gee.

My father has been in a nursing home since the day before Thanksgiving and my mother is starting treatment for Lymphoma on Monday. It's a lot to deal with at the same time and I know stress is an issue since it causes the immune system to weaken. Stressed? Who me? HA!

I have plenty to do, considering I haven't taken down my Christmas decorations yet. Lazy? Not in this case. This holiday season was the worst ever. Dad has been so sick - in and out of the nursing home and hospitals.

This is an opportunity for me to concentrate on my nutrition classes. My goal is to complete my coursework by the end of February so I can get my certification as a Nutritional Consultant. I've got a full plate right now with classes, starting a new business, both of my parents needing support with health issues and carving out some time for myself.

I spent the first week of this year getting organized and setting priorities. Writing a blog wasn't on the list, so I will work on first things first.

Lesson one - prioritize and stay focused
