Bahumbug! I'm stressed!!

Think I have the get enough sleep part down pat...lovin' that!!!!  I've been so good at getting sleep, I haven't even taken time to write!!!  Anyway, it's the rest of these 100 days of health are killing me!  I think I like food and drink too much...hmmm, what to do, what to do...

I think the hardest part was making myself sleep, but now that I can do that it really is getting out there and exercising!!!  And who's stupid idea was it to start this just before the holiday??? Oh yeah, mine.  Not my brightest idea...I think initially I hoped that I would be eating smarter and the holiday foods wouldn't kill me.  If they don't kill me, they will impede my slow start.  I will say thought the sleep part has had a positive impact on my health and productivity so that part is good...guess the doctor did know what he was talking about after all...go figure.

The other parts of this included reducing stress and improving financial management.  I'm actually doing OK on the financial management even with Christmas...of course it helps that there is no money to spend beyond necessities and bill catch up but even the kids are really OK with the decreases in holiday expenditures--maybe more than I am.

The stress part is an issue...Jeff is still not working but on the upside, he has had a lot more interviews and contacts in the last month than in any month before this (since being unemployed) so things are looking up there.  On the down side Sam hasn't had that same success and of course the bills keep mounting.  Then of course there was the accident...that was Sunday.  The car is not drivable and I have to be in a rental (we only have one car and have to drive to get to school and work)...don't even know when it will be up and running.  But you know, as stressful as that part is, I'm so relieved that Jeff is OK, I don't even care. 

Now dealing with the rental company...that is a whole different issue.  Let me just tell you, Enterprise really sucks to work with!!!!  I would never personally rent a car from this company EVER!  Not only are they expensive but aren't organized and when something goes wrong with the car...they asked ME to take the darn thing to the shop to get fixed!  I didnt' freakin buy the stupid car people--I'M RENTING THE CAR--means IT'S NOT MY PROBLEM!  Grrrr....wait let me go back to my happy place...Jeff's OK, job situation is looking up, my kids are super wonderful and life is really pretty good compared to how it could be...ahhhh.  Blood pressure going down...breath in, breath out.

Crap, I think I just fell asleep...oh well...here we go...marching along to work hard on our 100 days to health journey :-)
