Out of the fog

So after feeling so sick for so long i finally feel like I am heading out of the fog and back into my normal self.

It has taken a while and I am so glad I am beginning to get better. I was all packed and ready for boot camp this morning but unable to sleep until around 2am I gave up on that idea for a bit of rest. If this illness has taught me anything it is that I need rest to keep going. I have had a few false starts but I am feeling positive this is the one that means I am BETTER!!

I am still charting my progress daily on http://skinnythinking71.blogspot.com check it out and join the revolution on facebook!


Have a great weekend!!

Latest rant

So I had a mental breakdown on Monday feeling like I never get to do things for myself but just for the rest of my family and that got me thinking - what would I do if I had the time and a stark reality hit me.

I left home at 18 (1990)started nursing for 3 1/2 years my life was studying nursing, once qualified I worked a few years then on top of working full time I started to study for my 4 year degree course online, which during that time I got married and eventually moved to California and finished my degree, so i had a year off in the USA in which i studied and applied for my nursing license, and during my free time I did a theater production of Oliver and did tap classes. By now it was 2002 I got a job, had a baby, kept working, baby grew up, wanted to do activities I took him and ended up doing all this "mandatory" volunteering.

So that is me up to date and if I say pretty pathetic.

I have basically done nothing for myself except earn a living.

What would I like to do - I have no flipping idea. I like to cook but am too fat to eat, so there is a problem.

Any suggestions to my dilemma will be very welcome!!
