15th day and a 12-block walk this morning. I called a friend in an effort to step out of my comfort zone. I'm even thinking about attending a bible study (Matthew) or an AA/12 step meeting.
I need to break this cycle where I get up in the early morning, play some computer games while getting jazzed on coffee, overeat, go back to bed only to repeat the cycle in the afternoon. I did cancel my pogo.com (game site) subscription.
I wish I could find a part-time job but it ain't easy in a small town. Even volunteer jobs have waiting lists. I wish I could dream up something that would help others (get my mind off myself) and I could still do at home.
Eventually, I dream about living in a village on a lake with easy access for swimming and boating where everything is an easy walk. I'm so tired of the typical American town set-up where it's very driving intensive with all the stores at one end of town on a kind of strip.
I'm getting ahead of myself but thinking about subscribing to all those travel, retirement, and vacation magazines just to find a place to live. Oops, I need to get back in the moment or, at least, the day.
If I hadn't made a pact with my daughter I'd be drinking right now. (Of course, I don't tell her that) I need to find thicker ice or lose weight.
