Struggling a bit

Thanks for your collective support yesterday :-). I went home and crashed after dinner, sleeping 10 hours. Leaving the dishes undone, sigh. Two of three relationships have felt shaky over the past week, and I've been struggling to not obsess or lose focus altogether.

It doesn't help that I'm also dealing with weight issues -- over the past three trips, I've gained 11 lbs. Lack of exercise and too much travel have been prime culprits. But (body image) just looking at myself is depressing... my clothes are tight, and I'm now 23 lbs over my actuarial ideal weight. And (health) my blood pressure, which closely tracks my weight, is up to its highest level ever -- 140/95. I have a lot of work to do.

This morning... 7:30am and I've already had my first call from JL, and I'm busy working from home.

I found that getting up and walking with a walk buddy reallly helped my stress level. Maybe lunch time walks would help. As to the relationship strees I am happy to listen any time.Or just give hugs and snuggles. I am at work tonight till 930.

There's no one around here for walks... I'd love to see you, but I'm tied up through Friday.
