New Journeys January WISH 2026

Sounds pretty accurate except for the "night owl" part. I am creative, but I'm also up with sun and fade with it just as quickly.

I am happy to announce that I lost 3 pounds this week…no doubt all water weight. I returned to relatively normal eating, but not really dieting. It was a crazy week dealing with my violent student and another meeting (case study) that led us nowhere near a solution. I had a major hot flash which I haven’t had in quite a while. My cortisol must be super high. Then DD coming home from the UK and the serious health emergency that ensued really took me over the top.

I went to school yesterday even though I was exhausted to prepare my classroom for a sub in case I catch the flu from her. I was trying to sleep in today, but my patient was requesting scrambled eggs and toast with raspberry preserves at 7:00 AM. I was not ready to get out of bed but I did. She has been fed and medicated, laundry has been started, and the dishwasher is running. I am going to take an hour to relax and then run out to take care of my emissions. Later I have to pay bills. Ugh. It never ends.

Anyway, I’m happy to somehow be down 3 pounds and will try to eat a lot healthier this week. I don’t feel comfortable in my body right now.
