Thinking Ahead


Posted by katiebird

Traditionally I write my posts in the morning.  But, that hasn’t worked so well lately.  Has it?

So, I’m thinking that I’ll start posting whenever I THINK of it — like now.

My plan for 2010 is to get back to my original idea of writing thought-pieces in the morning.  Something to clarify my goal for the day and how it fits into the overall scheme of my life.

I’m hoping to post something else during the day — sometimes links sometimes details about health issues.  Even the state of health reform.

Those are VERY general goals. . . But, HEY – we’ve got to start somewhere.

Don’t we?


Waiting for tomorrow: Counting down the pounds to Election Day


Posted by katiebird

It’s amazing how fast time flies when I’m waiting for tomorrow. For weeks now, I’ve thought: OK: Tomorrow, I’m going to start my health care blogging again. And I will get back in shape. (snort) I don’t know if anyone else has noticed it or not but, it hasn’t happened.

If I don’t do something now — the whole election could be over and I’d have precious little to show for it. But, if I snap into focus? I could lose 15 pounds by election day. And considering how easy it would be to gain 15 pounds by then if I don’t? The incentive is overwhelming.

I have found that making a quick plan each morning keeps the day in focus. Without a plan my days drift by in a pleasant haze. (trembling a little) Can I stick to it this time? Maybe Just Today?

Just 4 Today, I’ll drink my fiber supplement twice, drink 2 liters of water , walk 2 miles, NOT eat between meals & NOT take seconds.

Meanwhile?

What are you going to do today?
