I managed to get through February without getting sick. Granted, I spent the month still dealing with respiratory and energy issues from being so sick in January, but at least none of it got worse. I did lose my two pounds - though again, not from any real effort on my part, but because I didn't feel that great most of the time to want to eat. I got a few small things accomplished, so even though the progress is painfully slow, it's still there.
March offers new opportunities, as well as being the month when winter becomes springtime - at least according to the calendar. Personally, I love March because besides my own birthday, there's a lot of other fun stuff that happens. And this year, on the very last day, we even have Easter!
So, what am I hoping March will be for me? Well, I really hope I can feel better enough to stop slogging through my life for one thing. I plan to try really hard to get back to physical activity, even if at first my respiratory issues can make my endurance low. But since in theory the weather will be improving, even just something like a walk or bicycle ride can happen, and I know myself well enough to know that I shouldn't overdo it when I have the chance to start again.
I'm still hoping to lose another two pounds, and now I have extra motivation, since one of my nieces is getting married in June, and I'd like to show up looking healthy. I also want to continue on some organization projects around the house. If/when the weather starts to cooperate, I also want to clean up outside in our garden. I'd love it if I could plant some flowers and get it looking nice again, so we could sit outside as much as we used to.
Of course, in a perfect world, I could accomplish everything and then more, but I'm perfectly content to do what I can and keep going. It's not a race, and as long as I remember that, I'll be just fine.
Happy March!
