It's been a while...

It's hard to believe that someone can write a blog every day.  Seems a little daunting to me, not to mention taking up time - I guess after I get used to it, writing daily will become just another thing I do every day.

I don't usually get involved with political banter but could you even believe Rick Perry in last night's debate, talk about "stepping in it" as he so eloquently put it.  Know your f^@#ing platform for Christ's sake.

As part of what I do each day, I take personal inventory and try to improve on my thoughts and actions.  Sometimes it's easier said than done though. I guess this is as good of a place as any to record what I've done throughout the day and how I've tried to improve...

Today I got up early, helped with getting lunches and breakfasts prepared then left early for what I thought was an MRI appointment.  After checking in and waiting for about an hour the lady (who was very nice I might add) says to me "John, do you know you're really early for your appointment?"  Turns out the appointment was for 12:30 PM, not 8 am as I had written it down...damn, part of the morning wasted!  I rescheduled for 7:15 AM on the 18th  Quite early but if I have to fast, the earlier the better - right?

They say I might have cancer.  That there are cells which are reproducing too fast and either the liver is doing a GREAT job at regenerating itself, or those cells are cancerous - I'm going with the former explanation!  Anyway, that's the reason for the test.  I have way too much to do right now to slip backwards on the recovery to better health...HOLD ON, LET'S GO!

I guess now is the time to get shit done around the house while I'm there, no more just hanging around.  I did start "working out" over last weekend.  I was a little sore, but nothing earth shattering.  I did a lot of bicep curls, forearm curls, triceps and lat work out along with sit ups and push ups.  If I can continue doing that while I watch tv, I'll be stoked.

Absolutely swamped @ work, have way too much shit to do and take care of.  I'll write later...
