Well, I have hit a wall. I hit 35 and almost on schedule, the bod started to fall apart. LOL. In all seriousness, though, I seem to be having some joint/tendon problems. I hope it is nothing serious, but I don't know yet. My whole body hurts and my shoulders and right arm feel like they are on fire. I am also dealing with some fatigue that just won't quit and I suspect a sleep disorder. I have a Dr. appointment scheduled for Thursday. In the meantime, I am getting by. I may have to ask Jeffrey to "be my hands" on some web design stuff that needs to get done. He's usually more than happy to help, especially if I can give him a few bucks for it.
At the moment, I am feeling like a big loser, though. I just resigned from my position on the Board of Directors for my church. The church means a lot to me, but I feel like I need to be able to handle my own affairs before I handle those of a congregation, and these days I can barely keep up. Hell, I can barely get out of bed. Some days just walking is a chore because my hips have a nasty habit of sliding out of place and pinching nerves and pulling muscles. Not fun, but the chiropractor can usually get that under control for me. In fact, I am heading there tonight.
I am sure the first thing my doctor is going to say is lose weight and exercise... both of which require time that I've historically chosen (or been forced to) spend on other things... plus the fact that I am exhausted all the time. I am trying to figure out how I'm going to put things back together without giving up my business. I don't want to be unable to function by the time I'm 60. I talked to my boss about cutting back on my hours at work, and he sounded, well... less than thrilled. I don't think he and/or the company is going to work with me. Choices are going to have to be made, but I obviously can't go on the way I'm going.
In the meantime, the chickens are growing up fast and Jason's well underway with their new coop. I'll try and post some pictures (or ask Jeffrey to) in the next few days.
