New Year

I'm trying yet again to start over for the umteenth time! My weight just slowly creeps up and I keep vowing to do better yet it doesn't happen.

Last year, I was running from home to first during a softball game and thought something had popped in my foot. I was unable to walk for a couple days but was diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis. I have tried ultrasound therapy, stretching exercises, massage and so many other things but it's still not healed. I am bound to wearing tennis shoes with custom-made inserts from my podiatrist. When I think I'm feeling a little better and try to wear dress shoes (to work), I'm back to where I was. It's sad but I'm going to have to live with it.

My mother-in-law has Alzheimer's and I've really been busy dealing with her. It's very challenging as well as sad. Anyone who has ever dealt with someone with this awful disease knows exactly what I'm talking about. Those of you who don't....I pray that you never have to. It's a horrible disease that affects everyone who knows the patient.

I hope that everyone is doing well!
