Daunting Tasks Ahead of Me...

Today is Sunday and I do not feel I have accomplished much this week.  I suppose that would be right since I spent most of the week out of town.  Still, I have this gnawing feeling that I need to do more.

I did not sleep well last night.  I just could not seem to get comfortable and my mind was just reeling.  I hate it when you need the rest, but your mind just won't stop running through all sorts of stuff.

For some reason, I am feeling really run down.  Walking the dogs is taking a lot of energy out of me.  I think I am back in my vicious circle and of course, I see the specialist for my diabetes tomorrow.  My blood sugar is high, but not 350+ high.  Still, I need to lower that number.  Usually, when my blood sugar is high, I start feeling like this.  I need to shake it off and move on no matter what.

Rather than take more technical courses, I have been toying with the idea of taking an art class.  I am not much of an artist, but I always wish I had the creativity and ideas.  On Friday, a lady that went to the Dallas Gem and Jewelry show suggested doing Painting with a Twist.  Basically, you go to painting courses and bring some wine to relax.  LOL  Just looking on the internet for some places to do some painting or what have you:

Hmmmm...most art classes are for children.  I would have thought there would be more for adults or I am possibly missing various art supply places that offer such courses.

In the meantime, time to get moving and get this place whipped into shape.  Have to start getting myself back on track this week - I have several doctor's appointments this week.  Since my father got a colonoscopy, I have been considering my own situation.  I have already reached my deductible with the insurance company at this point, so I should be getting some better benefits.  I figure I had better get myself checked out for any possibility of colon cancer.  My mom and grandmother both had it, so I have a good chance of getting it myself.  I hate that idea, but if I get checked out early, I have a better possibility of getting cured.  I also need to get my blood sugar under control.  That is not going to help matters, either.
