2021-03-21 Questions of Life and Death

I guess it’s been a few days. I guess that’s what happens when life gets busy. I feel like I complain a lot about not ever having enough time but then something happens and I have even less time. I guess that’s the nature of life. Experiences that are constantly teaching you that you don’t…

2021-03-18 Let Me Tell You

I don’t care. I’ve never been a rule breaker, and it doesn’t seem fair, but with the kind of hour, day, month I’m having I no longer care. Let me just tell you when I was at the grocery store a few days ago doing that self check out thing I do, I scanned the…

2021-03-15 This Room With a View is Not Helping My Mood

No walking on the treadmill for me today… I’m out of my element and typing on my laptop from a hospital room while my mom tries to take a nap. Though, I think sleep in this place is rare because of all the people coming and going. I’ve been here a few hours now and…

2021-03-09 No News Must Be Good News.. Right?

I feel like I don’t have much to say. I felt the same way yesterday. I can’t help but notice that the last few days have been good days. The mood has been positive despite my period showing up three days early and I’m doing good with my goals and have had a nice balance…

2021-03-07 Checking It and (Mostly) Not Wrecking It ❤️💤☯️ ✔️✔️✔️

It’s Sunday again and I’m up early and checking my stats. I changed things up for the month of March so this is my first week evaluating new measures. For exercise I’m still keeping tabs on my step count but also trying to improve my heart function by making sure I get some good cardio…
