Today: 1/8/25
Rough day. I didn't walk before work. I did achieve my step goal. I didn't do any physical activity apart from walking. I drove home but drove right back to Austin. It's probably going to freeze tonight at home but not in Austin and I need to be at the clinic to conduct training. I'm staying in a hotel over night. Hopefully, I can get back into routine tomorrow. Didn't do homework. Going to bed soon. Able to assign someone else to do dishes and laundry.
Reflection:
I feel meh. Excited to sleep in a little and have slow morning with coffee and easy roll to work. Not going to be at myself up over not achieving as much as I wanted. Not sure if laundry or dishes complete. Should have checked.
Tomorrow's plan:
Get up, have coffee, walk around hotel before work. Finish training and start drive home. I can work from home Friday, so I'll stay up later to finish responses for class. Do one load of dishes and put away. Do one load of dishes and laundry. Do step goal. Do 20 mins of physical activity.

Catch up:
Been consistent in achieving step goals and dishes. Not getting the help I've been requesting. But, that's ok. This is my journey and my goals. I cannot expect others to participate. 🙁
It makes me sad I'm not getting help. So, I have to strengthen my resolve to see them through. I'll allow myself the sadness here during reflection.
I have not been doing my homework. If I want to get that masters degree, I have to focus and dedicate time to the effort.
For today:
I've already cleaned the kitchen. Wiped all the walls down. I'll mop another time. I've enough clean clothes to make it through the week. So, focus is one homework. This modules assignments are due today. Once completed I'll do the work for my body.
I need to move past the regret of allowing my body to get weak. It's not easy for me. I'll work on that later. Right now, homework and body.
Unconditional love isn't a free pass to hurt me.

When we engage in the art of hair braiding, we infuse it with the purity of our intentions, a gesture that takes on profound significance when it's the tresses of a beloved individual we weave. The act of braiding becomes a powerful symbol, as we intertwine three sections of hair, each one representing the mind, the body, and the spirit.
In my youth, my mother would lovingly braid my hair, creating cherished moments that have left an indelible mark on my heart. As the passage of time bestows maturity, I find myself continuing this timeless tradition by tenderly braiding her hair. In this cycle, we bridge the generations, preserving this beautiful connection that transcends both time and space. The hands that perform this act of love and tradition are mine, as I braid my mother's hair, perpetuating the legacy of our shared bond.
I scheduled a therapy session. I don't know what's wrong. I'm just tired of things being the way they are.
Ok. Long time since I've posted.
I had some great weeks working out three times a week. Awesome!
Not so great with house work and even got behind in school work. But, I'm caught back up and trying to maintain again.
Let's see how this week goes.
