AuntieJan's Journal, 03 April 2012

It's amazing how quickly life can become crazy. It's my never-ending challenge, to balance taking care of myself and taking care of others.

My sister had her knee surgery and then went to rehab for physical therapy, she is home now and doing pretty good but she has to have a lot of assistance from me. I had a birthday cookout for her on Saturday, mostly family and a couple neighbors. It was really fun!

Work is busy at Segunda Vida and I have picked up a couple of painting jobs on the side that I'll be doing this week. It will be some extra income that we can use for sure!

I have got to make sure I get my exercise in. It is number one on the priority scale. As long as I get my cardio and weights in, the weight drops even though I may not be perfect on the diet every day. If I don't get the required exercise, the weight loss stalls or I start gaining it back. This is where I have given up so many times in the past, the frustration of it all.

I will never, ever, give up.

Let me repeat that. I will never, EVER give up.

Peace.

That's right! Life long journey, and we will NEVER give up! My biggest fear, but determined to never give up!

I've missed your journals - good to hear from you again :-). Life sounds busy - glad your sis is recovering..... Good about the extra painting jobs and YES, you must look after yourself, otherwise, you won't have the health and energy, to look after others :-)
