In Shape

The work that I do now is so much more demanding that before, and even after months of this, I really don't feel like I am in shape.

On my days off I have so much to do. The shopping cleaning the house, and some times walking the dogs. My oldest dog has been ill and I have had to spent time keeping her well. As a result I haven't had time to walk the others.

I have more medical things I need to take care of this year and I will. While it is for my good, its not going to be easy and it will have me on my back recuperating. In that time I will not be able to get out and walk the dogs like I want to.

It does cause me to be stressed out right now. What can I do? Eat well and keep walking. It will help me heal and the exercise will help me relieve the stress.

What do you do when you are stressed? For me its cleaning and cooking, of course my writing. The rest? For me its prayer and taking a deep breathe, I will get better and my surgery will help. Never easy to face, but necessary. It would be worse if I had not been taking care of myself before hand. I have, while not in shape, in better shape than before.
