Spring Cleaning and "Catching Up"

Hello, All...

I have been 1/2 way into what I am doing lately. Going to gym, working out; but, not eating right.

Been getting on Spark, getting my points; but, not being too social (no huddling, no board posts, etc.).

Been going to work and getting things done; but, my heart is just not there sometimes.

I think that I am getting a little anxious about my upcoming back surgery. I have just a little over 3 weeks (20 days from tomorrow) until my surgery on March 21. I have received confirmation that my dad is coming to visit--he will stay for about 2 weeks after my surgery to help out! It will be great to have him here (my parents have only visited once since I got to TX--19 years ago)...but, not much fun with me in bed most of the time!!!! I will do lots of reading...a habit I got from him...so, we may just read all the books we have ever wanted to in that two weeks.

I am not "worried" per se...I know that God is in control and all will be to His glory!! I have come to terms with being off work for 6 weeks. This has been hard for me to accept!!!

Today and tomorrow...I am doing some MAJOR Spring Cleaning. Keeping my head and body BUSY!! I got some of it done today...but, I have to stop since my back is hurting so bad. I will try to get lots more done tomorrow!! I enjoy cleaning--it is very cathartic and a GREAT workout, too. But, I know when I have to stop and NOT overdo it...if I do, then I won't even be able to WALK the next day!!

Well...all caught up. I hope all my SparkFriends are doing well and take GREAT care of themselves and their loved ones.

Blessings and peace, All!
