I truly don't have much time this morning. I went for a walk, which was about as lame a walk as I have managed yet. Only 20 minutes. But. I walked. The exercise is obviously not going to get me into the Mrs. (actually I can't be a Mrs.) America contest, so the benefit is me getting out and clearing my head and getting my blood moving and stretching my back and quality time with Ripple. Good enough reasons.We went to WI for the weekend - to the cottage that my Grandma and Grandpa owned near...

Going a bit slow this morning. We went for our walk, and walked about 5 minutes longer than usual. My body hurts, but not so much that I can't walk, just enough for me to notice. It seems to be mostly my hamstrings and lower back right now, rather than, say, my hips or knees. I haven't been doing any weights at all because I don't trust my joints right now.I did take another bath last night and that was wonderful.
Work is crazy, as usual. I keep feeling like I almost catch up, but the...

I'm behind this morning.I fell asleep on my hands and they were numb when the alarm went off so I couldn't flip off the switch - talk about motor skills issues. It was alarming and funny at the same time, as I pawed away at the clock hoping to flip something to make it SHUT UP. Eventually I had to use my pinky finger - the only non-numb one.
On our walk this morning, Ripple and I (well, probably just me) these beautiful blue flowers on a trellace arch over someone's front walk way. I'...

I'm sitting at the computer in my bra and sweat pants. With this GINORMOUS belly hanging out there for the world (ie the cats and Ripple) to see. Its 69 degrees outside and I'm hot. We just got back from our walk and I've got some coffee and a few minutes before I need to get going. Walnut is growing and stretching me so that I'm getting little burst blood vessels on my stomach - nothing too unsightly, but it reminds that I'm not making up the feeling of being stretched from the inside.Thi...

I don't think I should journal - just because I'm awake early and have time doesn't mean I need to. I'm feeling very "on the brink" since I'm tired and sore and writing about it will only push me over I think.I just need to slog through my day today and make it to this evening when I can try to sleep again.
I have two major projects due at work today and I am feeling a bit overwhelmed there. I try to look at this as a learning opportunity for when I need to actually balance ...
