Oh yeah. The frigging hormonal rollercoaster that is the forties.
On the plus side, I am making myself exercise. Yesterday - 35 minute powerwalk around the track. Tonight, I am already suited up for a run, just need to load the ipod. Food choices…well…portion control is not too bad, let’s just leave it at that.
Unable to sleep much the last few nights which is partly what caught up with me today.
I think I need to find a place to run away and hide for a long weekend, maybe rent a cabin somewhere and just not talk to anyone for a few days. I actually know a motel about 250km from here, where I would be close to some fantastic hiking trails and could just hide out with the dog…maybe I will look into that. Not quite wilderness camping. OMG, truly I have even been considering taking off for a weekend camping trip, which would be a huge adventure for me and maybe even fun. Hmmm….
I am really struggling to get our from under this black blanket. I know it is hormonal, I know it will lift soon, but this dark heavy weight on me is almost too much. I am just trying to keep my feet and mind moving…one step at a time.

Hey, I’m moving into a hotel starting Sunday night so you can join us! Although I don’t think it’s going to be very relaxing to hang out w/a family of 4
Your idea sounds better of hiding out in the woods and hiking. How about we trade places?
I love the idea of running off to a cabin with a dog for a few days and breathing in fresh cool air. Of course I couldn’t handle really camping (dirt, bugs, peeing in the bushes) but luxury cabins? ok, sign me up.
Hope you get to clear your mind soon.
Sounds like a nice hotel and a good idea. I was having insomnia too but started with Glutamine (not glusamine) and found it really helped. It is a bit hard to find - I order mine Mary kay style from a company, but I have seen it at healthy type supplement stores.
Cheers!
