Okay, so I've not been posting, my back has been keeping me stationary on a more regular and frequent basis lately. Work is stressful and depressing. Our financial state is in trouble - especially when I look at college payments for my son in 16 months. I've been in hiding.
Here's what I've done though. I faced the bills/budget and laid it out there for the family. The kids need to know where we stand and that if they want to continue with things as they are, they're going to have to sacrifice elsewhere.
I've started cleaning/purging/filing my office space and been giving my daughter voice lessons so that I can begin private lessons again soon. I have been dragging my feet on getting fliers up and such - I'm giving myself 2 weeks for that.
I've been taking Sean on college visits so that he's on track and realizes what it's gonna take to get him where he wants to be.
I've picked up a happy knitting project and vowed to not buy anymore knitting anything! I've got to use my entire stash before I can buy anything else.
All of this has also made me start craving healthy foods and this past week I've been more careful about eating better. I am going to call the doctor to make an apt. to find out what the heck's going on with my back. I'm living on iburpofen or Alive these days and it's got to stop.
I just downloaded Pride and Prejudice on my iPod so I'm going to try to elliptical it for a bit later today.
I will try to post every week - at least once - I'm even scheduling it into my calendar so that I don't put it off and never get to it! Sorry for being lame and vacant.
