I wholeheartedly welcome February, usually by the 1st. the only reminder of the past holiday season is a loose tinsel stuck in the vacuum cleaner roller, or an ornament found in an inconspicuous place, i.e. behind the couch. ~wink~
The pages in my journal are beginning to fill, our goals are written down, and dreams of fulfilling them lie ahead. I love making plans and setting goals, from daily, weekly and monthly, but experience has taught me that things don't always go as planned, however, through many trials, errors, and tears I am learning to go with the flow. Not there yet!~grin~
Five months ago I decided to do something about my health, exercising, eating healthier, getting more sleep,adding supplements too! I found if you do one, all the others will fall in line. The one thing I knew I had to do was to be consistent, which I really tried to adhere too, and was doing so well, felt better, even lost some weight, which was not my main goal, I just wanted to feel better and be healthier.
All that changed two weeks ago, I stopped exercising, started eating unhealthy mainly for convenience, it is hard to manage a program when away from home, when company comes, and when loving family (MOM) sends all these great tasting foods, desserts to your home. EXCUSES! EXCUSES! Isn't it amazing how we try and justify our behavior !tch!tch!
Today after eating 1-1/2 candy bars, that our son brought home from shopping, actually he bought 6, I decided it was time to do something about these bad habits that I had picked back up.
I bundled up went for a walk, said "hello" to the animals! had a long talk with the Lord!
Psalm 66:19~ But certainly God has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
I was amazed at how easy it was to get back to my exercise, I walked 4.5 miles in record time! Now, if I could get those sweets out of sight I think I can say I am back on track. ~wink~
~UPDATE ON MR P.
**********************************************************************OH! Dear Ones, Mr. P. is doing so well, he continues to amaze me with his progress, I don't have to remind him that its time to do PT any more, he has weaned himself off the high powered pain meds. which is such a relief, and wants to be more independent.
Next week will be busy, three days of PT, a trip to Drs. to have staples removed, and sadly our son will be going back home, not looking forward to saying goodby,ðŸ˜ðŸ˜¢ðŸ’”
Hope you are having a great weekend,
Thank you for your love and prayers,
Sue
