Monthly update

Its hard to believe another month has gone by. I am still driving a cab, but have tempered my obsession with being "available". Sure this has caused my income to take a hit, but it has also allowed me to get some things done. I heard myself saying the other day "I am not busy, but I am also not working, and you cannot afford what I would charge to bring you that Chili-dog". Some of my clients use me for errands. I will run to the store for an MS patient, or other housebound persons. But I have learned I need to have my "Me-time" too. I am more apt to leave my phone in the cab when I go in the house some times. Especially if I go in to rest. It was very hard for me to refuse work, knowing that each and every dollar I earn goes to me. But that availability came at a price.

I found it very difficult to keep a steady gym schedule. I found it very difficult to keep cooking for myself. I love cooking for myself, and I love working out. Sure, I also love driving a cab, but I am trying to make it all balance.

Healthwise, I have been tired a lot. They doubled my cholesterol and beta-blockers. This has been since November, and since that time I have been tired a lot more. Recently I noticed with the more day light, I have been more active. So some of it may have been seasonal affective and not drug reactive. In any case, I seem to need about 10 hours of sleep a day now, rather than my formerly seven. So I sleep ten.

Spring has gloriously put on its white shoes, here in Kentucky. I have started a slew of projects, and even finished some. Most of them are outdoor. But on the rainy days, I have some indoor ones as well. I expect one of these days, when I walk into Home Depot, a greeter will greet me by name.
