My personal coach is awesome. I’m learning a lot even if my practice is lacking lately. I’m lacking energy to wake up early enough to get my workouts in on any sort of schedule. And, last week meal prep was a complete bust. I paid the price last night, and most of the day, forContinue reading “Health Update”

Prompt Day
What does success mean to you? A few years ago, I was a part of the first cohort of a course put on by Jess Weiner, called: “WTF is Success“ It was life changing because it got me to consider what success looks like for me, not some idealized version of me… but the personContinue reading “Prompt Day”
Be A Light
I was driving home from a friend’s house today, and this was on my playlist of the day. Talk about timely! It reminded me of Matthew 5. “Ye are the light of the world. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light untoContinue reading “Be A Light”
Groundhog Day
I am an intermittent insomniac. At least I used to be. These days, I only have insomnia in moments of great emotional or physical distress. During bouts of insomnia, it feels like living the same day over again. I remember one time, I finally crashed after a day or two. I don’t remember how longContinue reading “Groundhog Day”
Day 28 — Body appreciation
How do you feel about your physical appearance? How can you show your body more love and appreciation? This is a loaded question. I have cerebral palsy with left-sided hemiparesis. Society, members of my family, doctors, and others have been telling me that there is something wrong with me and my appearance since infancy. ForContinue reading “Day 28 — Body appreciation”
Day 25
How have you changed in the last 5 years? My life has changed quite a bit in the last 5 years. Hell, even in the last 2 years, our life has changed a bit. So, in 2020, I graduated from college with my Bachelors degree in Health Care Administration. We were working on being relicensedContinue reading “Day 25”
Day 19
I want to remember I want to remember why I love to read. I was going to be very specific and say: “read scripture” this morning. But, it goes beyond scripture for me on the Sabbath day. I want to remember why I started reading books in general. I distinctly remember it was in thirdContinue reading “Day 19”
Day 7
What could you do differently? Yesterday at work, I had an encounter with a patient. I told the pt she was early for her appointment and that she might have to wait. I still checked her in, and when I got to her copay… she mentioned her insurance, and she opted to have it allContinue reading “Day 7”
Day 6
Do you spend more time thinking about the future or the past? Why? Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future. ~~ John F. Kennedy I have spent much of my life looking back or yearning for a future that wasn’tContinue reading “Day 6”
Day 5 — Sabbath
My faith has been part of my identity since I was young. I took my first unassisted steps into the arms of missionaries. Sundays in high school were spent in church. That was the day that I would fortify myself to get through the week at school, with the stressors at home, and through theContinue reading “Day 5 — Sabbath”
