Another Week Goes By...

...and I haven't written a thing. Blech!

I *should* be journaling. It does help me stay on track and mindful of my goals. Simple as that.

Right now I'm struggling so much to sleep. The breathing/pain issues I've written about already are getting bad. I'm not able to fall asleep well at all. In fact, I've even had to take a half a unisom here and there to get my mind to settle. Then I'm waking up in such discomfort that I'm wandering from chair to couch and back to bed again trying to find a way to eek in a few more hours of sleep. Needless to say, it's taking its toll on me. I'm waking up late, slow moving, and barely keeping up with normal duties.  That has sent me back to my old coping mechanism of completely forgetting or setting aside exercise to make time for the schooling, laundry and meals. It shouldn't be optional, but that's what it's become again.

Sigh. This is my life, so I need to adjust and make a way to deal with it. We've also gotten very busy with the spring season. This week is Spring Break, so we'll be busy with projects. However, I'm also going to use this week to Reboot and get back into the habits of exercise, activity, logging and blogging.

Tomorrow I weigh in.  I haven't been eating horribly, but I also haven't been paying very close attention. Just trying to make the best choices I can. Funds are very tight right now, with work being so slow. That has made the lowish-carb plan hard to follow too. We'll see what the scale has to tell me tomorrow. :-S
