Ambitious adventures versus sanity and health #fibromyalgia #worries

Today I am going to sign some paperwork to essentially start a part-time career. I know I can do it. That's not the concern; the concern is whether I will be able to keep up with it. I will essentially have three months to make it work. If I do not make it work, I stand to lose. It is a risk, plain and simple. The best word for right now is anxiety. I need to just let it go. Not think about it. And just do it the best I can.

The non-resolution year

Every year, people create resolutions for themselves. I have done that a lot in past years. This year is a bit different; I didn't do any New Year's Resolutions. I think a part of this is because I do a lot of resolutions throughout the year. They also tend to stay in the same vein as keeping myself healthy. A few months ago I vowed that I would not fall down the rabbit hole and abuse my poor body with bad habits (eating, drinking, etc) between December and March, like I have in the past. So far, I am doing pretty good with that. I go to the gym as it is. Right now though, I know the gym is going to be busier than normal because of the resolutioners. Which means forgetting about even trying to go to any of the group classes for a few weeks. As winter settles in, having the New Year as a landmark to make changes can be advantageous though. It is some hard to get motivated in the middle of winter sometimes. Take advantage of it and get motivated!
