I lost half a pound!! Stable housing really does make a difference in one's health. Wow.
I'm still not logging in consistently. Actually, I'm accepting that I probably won't be able to this first semester while I get my apartment in order. It's taking a lot longer than I thought it would. I basically come home just to sleep right now. School and work are taking up a lot of my time right now. Hopefully I get a fridge and a stove soon. That's priority right now. But getting the bedroom, bathroom, dining room AND living room together is something else altogether. I foresee it taking all year.
I'm very grateful that I have a place of my own now, that I'm blessed with a great job where I help the community, and that I've started grad school. I feel very fortunate. This acknowledgment helps me deal with the crazy stress brought by all these things. I just want to be able to work and come home to study and relax. Hopefully this happens sometime soon. I cry sometimes from all the stress.
This all makes it even more shocking that I lost half a pound this week. Seriously. I don't know how I'm handling life right now... sometimes. Sometimes it feels great, but that's rare. I'm mostly freaking out. I don't have time to log. I'm trying to let it go.
Sigh...
But half a pound. Wow. I must be doing something right!
