Trying to find balance in my own life is challenging lately, with our friend's husband starting treatment of chemo tomorrow, and committee meetings where I'm the chair, and recovering from a lazy bug when our house looks neglected. Smh. It can be all so over consuming on the brain.
Last night I wanted to stop at 2 proteins. I really did, but got up and ate more nuts and more fruit. The flip side was it was a better decision than eating a carb or three, which is what I really wanted to do. So maybe the will power is returning.
Two things are obvious to me right now: 1) I need to dive into Bible Study again. Life intervenes and I stray. I don't read/study it like I should, then wonder why I thirst. 2) I need to dive back into working out diligently. My emotional cart has been running on and off its track with the friends' "sudden" illness. It has brought back 90% of the memories when my dad walked into the hospital with undiagnosed pancreatic cancer, and he departed home to Jesus as his body was rolled out of the hospital 5 days later. I dared not share that with my best friend nor her husband, but it was (and still is) as each step of his condition is known.
