Running low

Confession 1: had a burger tonight - just a little one but I was famished. I had a salmon burger patty, cantaloupe melon and cucumber after working out and that was foolish. The fruit and vegetable are mostly water and I just did not think.

Confession 2: I have been working later and later than I should. I am taking ownership of the issues and should delegate out more.

My argument to that second one is that the work load has increased by 40 percent on my team this month so far and there is no let up in the immediate future. From what I understand it will virtually increase by over 50 percent in the next two months. Job security on one hand but we have already been trimmed to a number that no longer meets the needs of those whom need our help. Thus tasks that could be done by others if I had the time to train them I take upon myself. I need my July vacation soon.

Confession 3: I really would have liked the surgery to happen this Friday for two reasons. 1. I would have them performing it to offer a resolution to my stroke situation. 2. I would have been forced to take at least two days off of work and possibly more. Thus a break before my July vacation.

Confession 4: I am loving the 30 minutes on the treadmill and trying to do this 5 days a week now that there is nothing planned in my immediate future. I want to fit in a tai chi class but have yet to find one that matches my schedule so I still contemplate how to do this. I do the treadmill on my lunch break at work. I am contemplating how to fit more in my schedule but am not there yet.

Confession 5 and the last one: I am really lousy right now at making sure I get three meals in a day. That is bugging me as I need to get in three moderate meals and two small protein snacks. So I am going to keep working on this too.

  2. I would love to join your tai chi class. Oh well.

    I don't think that I am being that hard on myself. I know that this blog has the things on it that I just used to keep bottled in. Helped ruin one marriage and put me where I am today.

    Thus part of my repair phase has been to put what I normally keep bottled in there on paper. :)
