I'm Back!

It has been a long time since I have written a post to this Blog.  I am alive and well, but suffering from the results of dealing with some pretty depressing events.  I unfortunately let those events take the better of me and I need to get myself back in shape.  Tomorrow I start my running again regardless of the stresses resulting from steps needing to take towards closing of my mother's estate. 

It has been 16 months since my wonderful mother passed and I am still dealing with cleaning out the house (thousands of boxes of stuff) and inspections (resulting in a new spetic system to the tune of $35,00.00+),  my blood pressure became dangerously high due to the stress.  I am now on blood pressure medications and have to take my blood pressure several times a day. 

Health comes first and I am looking forward to losing the pounds I have gained and getting my body strong!  I truly believe that if I get back to running and get my diet under control I will not need any medication. 

I also turned 60 this past December 25th.  I so fretted over this milestone, much like I did when I turned 30.  Oh, would I love to be 30 again with the knowledge I have now!  But I figure that maybe, just maybe, the 60 of today is the 30 of those living 100 years ago!  Guess maybe I am not that old after all!

Life is full of possibilities, if we chose to take them!
