This has been one of the worst years and yet best years of my life. In Febuary my mother passed away due to a combination of lung disease and Lupus, she was 58 years old.
Before she died she made me promise her that I would lose weight and get healthier. Fortunately I do not, nor ever have, smoked (the cause of her lung disease) but my eating habits are terrible and my job does not require me to do anything physical.
She also wanted me to start living life instead of going through the motions. For the most of my adult life I have gotten up, gone to work, put in 10-12 hours a day, come home, eat dinner, watch TV, then go to bed and do it all again the next day. Late last year my wife and I met a couple and we became good friends. Through them we have met several other couples and single people and for the first time in our lives we have a circle of friends. We have been more social in the last 10 months than we had in the previous 16 years together combined.
I've done a good job of fulfilling my mothers second request but not so good on the first one. There are many reasons for me to keep the first one, its time to get serious, stop pretending, and just do it.
