Early in the Morning

My health benefits were over February 28th.  My husband's were to pick up where mps ended... however it is NEVER as easy as they say it will be.  So, here it is March 31st and still no insurance.  Our pills are running out slowly but surely and one that has run out is my sleeping pill, and it is too expensive for me to pay cash for. There is a reason I took the pill... for I do not sleep well without it.

Now there is a positive side to all this, and that is that I am fully awake at 6:42 am.  I already am dressed, washed up, and clothes down the chute.  So I'm thinking.... maybe it was the sleeping pills that kept me in bed all day.  Maybe it was the sleeping pills that made me feel I couldn't move in the mornings til noon...

I'm going to work hard today, exercise too.... and we shall see if I earn my sleep tonight.

I'll post tomorrow for all of us to find out!

One Step Back

It has been a long while since I have written.  I did not mean to walk away from my commitment.  I really do want my life to change, but I must realize that it takes awhile for such a change to happen.  I have lived this poor life for way too many years. 

I joined the YMCA to be with my daughter.  She works there.  It is good to be able to work out with her.  We are exercise buddies.  Unfortunately, I took her off course when I asked her to meet me at Culvers today for a burger and fries.... plus a sundae.  That was not fair of me.  I should be a better role model for her.

Tomorrow I plan to get up early and exercise, and then go at 7:30 after her lessons to swim with her.  I owe her that.  Friday she took off work.  We will exercise in the afternoon. 

Grant me the grace, Lord, to make this work.  May I take two steps forward tomorrow...
