papercrafteradvocate I, too, have been thinking of my mortality. And that of my parents. Really freaks me out that I'm middle aged, and they're older. I'm not ready for that. I've been thinking about the fact that my brother died two years ago, and I'm getting closer to the age when he died.
My resolution this year is to take better care of myself. In every way I can. I've only lived half my life (knock on wood). I want to be healthy for as much of the rest that I can.
So far I've started taking a women's multivitamin every day.
I bought two new bras.
Tossed out clothes that make me feel like crap.
I still need to make a well visit doctor appointment, to get a baseline for bloodwork and stuff like that.
It's also time for a woman's appointment.
I plan on buying new sneakers (I'm on my feet all day at work), and more clothes (hard with the fitting rooms still closed, and not wanting to go out for nonessentials).
It pretty much comes down to the fact that I'd be heartbroken if I saw my kids treated the way I treat myself. I need to change that.
