Please Keep Trying!

I weighed myself the other day. I had a really bad feeling I’d gained weight and I was even told my face looked fuller. My thighs felt heavier too. Turns out I did in fact gain weight, about ten pounds to be exact. Ouch. Well that wasn’t much of a surprise, seeing as how I knew I was pigging out more than usual and not exercising as much with my bum knee. Stress and disorganized thinking have that effect on me.

I’m going to stop writing my book for the time being and focus on writing for magazines. I’ll also be doing my damnedest to lose the ten pounds and then some. We’ve had a rough time lately with personal issues, (car was totaled by a deer, knee isn’t getting any better, issues with family health, etc.) so I’m going to focus on resolving what I have in front of me before going on to other tasks.

I actually felt much better after I accepted I wouldn’t have the time or energy to be writing. This site won’t disappear, and I will keep writing on it as much as I can. I’m just going to take stock of the “little” things I need to do and then re-evaluate how to tackle bigger issues.
