I Wish I Had Some Magic
Ruby's therapist suggested that she change five things in her life if she was really serious about losing the weight. I thought that seemed like a good idea. So I'm trying to think of five things I can change.
I already park farther from where I'm going to get the extra walking. Stairs are a bit tough with my knees as painful as they are. I guess one thing I could do is not going straight home and watching TV as soon as I get there. I could do some household chores. Another is to drink water instead of diet coke. So I have two. I need three more.
I think I could probably change five things in other areas of my life, too. You know, like what are five things I could change so I could save money? Not eating out—or picking much cheaper places could be one change. Anyway. . . .
Other things on Ruby that hit home with me are her depression and sleep issues. My childhood was pretty tough. Sometimes I think I may be suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. But I won't go into detail here.
Exercise this week is not going to be easy. No gym in the morning. I know I need to find a gym that really fits me. But I've been hesitating. I'm afraid I won't be able to afford it. I've been unsuccessfully trying to figure out how to make more money. I wish I had some magic.
Wouldn't it be nice to have a magic wand? Wave it and your troubles disappear. If I had a magic wand, I would change a lot of things—number one my weight problems. Number two—my money problems. I think those are my top two. They're probably the top two for a lot of people. You think?
