April 30th – Finding Balance Again

April 30, 2010 at 10:54 am 2 comments

I thought that having a drug free year behind me would change things.  I thought that I could get by without the blog but I can’t.  I tried but I can’t do this on my own.   The past few weeks have been awful.  I threw myself into work and completely lost balance.  I haven’t been to the gym.  I haven’t run.   It got so bad that I made myself sick.

I really appreciate your support and hope everyone can forgive me for bailing on my blog.  It won’t happen again.

    Balance-Harmonious arrangement of ones life in order to remain whole. As you found out without balance we cannot be whole. It is a lesson we all have had to learn and some of us are still learning. One step at a time and remember it is ok to NO…You come first.. If you don’t take care of you, you won’t be able to help others. I love you so much even if you were not my son. Mom
