Today is my 45th birthday. It seems like yesterday when I graduated from high school and was about to enter college. Now, I look at my life and wonder what happened. I know what happened - I just did not do all of the things I wanted to do. That is my fault and now, I need to make a change.
I spent many years working and taking the occasional vacation. The one vacation I took without my parents was to go with some friends to Las Vegas in 2002. Right now, I want to pay off some bills and get a new car. I also want to clean up my apartment and organize it the way I want. I just need to learn to tell certain people and such "No" when they want to derail my plans.
In the next couple of weeks, I need to go see the doctor. First, I will do the mammogram and get that out of the way. When I see the doctor, I will have to fast and go through the whole check up. I know my diabetes is pretty high. I haven't been doing myself much favors mainly because I am constantly under stress, so I let that be my reason for making bad choices. That is wrong as well. However, I really need to be able to fix the stress issue.
What to do today? Well, since it is my birthday, I am going to eat a few "bad" foods. Only because I need to get rid of it and I do not have them that often. After this entry, I am going to fix myself some pancakes and bacon. I think I may get a Schlotzky's sandwich for lunch and hang out with the dogs.
I am off work today and tomorrow. I will pull my lessons for my Java and Perl courses, then work on the assignments. Now, while that sounds like "work", I actually enjoy it as I love programming. I am trying to improve my skills. So, this works for me.
On to fixing breakfast for the dogs and myself as well as do some laundry. I will post more later!
