Perhaps like surfacing in the ocean it is a good thing to go slowly when making changes? When I set up this blog I had every intention of writing daily. But like many good intentions the reality of daily life and unexpected occurences have prevented ..no ...really it is my usual tendency towards procrastination combined with ill-health. But as I lay awake last night (another frequent occurence) I made a commitment to myself to begin this blog as a support for myself and the changes I am determined to make.
Not far below the surface of my outward appearance is a healthy active person just waiting to get out. I have held myself as a prisoner for years, chained in by fears, insecurities, fatigue (whether as a result of 7 children or just not taking care of myself) and ADD. I'm not kidding about the 7 children or the ADD. I have a list of excuses for why I haven't taken better care of myself; but it is time for the excuses to end and action to take place.
I need to succeed at this.
