Okay, it's been a while since my last entry. I've been really busy. That's good, because when one is busy with activities, then food becomes less of a draw. Now, though, what I need to do is find time for exercise. I should exercise on a regular basis, but it's kind of hard to fit that into an increasingly written-in appointment book. I haven't really been doing more than the average person does, but I was raised with very low standards in regards to a work ethic. Therefore, I'm working from where I was last month (in bed all day) to where I am now (chores, errands, political events, tons & tons of e-mail, etc.). I haven't been this busy since the Clinton Administration. Volunteering during an election year is hard work, and I have to find time for relaxation as well as exercise. Today, for instance, I wanted to volunteer to register voters down in South Beach. But I just couldn't move. I had spent the previous days running around, doing errands and doing my part in the household. It's a big switch from just staying in bed all day, but it's a switch that I think was long overdue.
