Switch gears.

I am sick and tired of being sick and tired.

I was just diagnosed with Diveritculosis and stress related illnesses.

Today's the last day of rest. This my final Sunday to sit around the house and do nothing.

Tomorrow starts a whole new workout regime. Well, until I start working again.

I can't wait until I start seeing results of this aging body. To force making it do what I want right now.

I'm used to being the athlete.

Someone I can do anything, and everything in the blink of an eye.

I can barely get up and walk without pain.

Pain.

Pain has encompassed every aspect of my life.

I get winded making the bed. Walking upstairs is a challenge. I'm tired of the bed rest. It is making me weak.

Tomorrow I start swimming laps. Swimming laps is a low impact exercise. I'm able to do by myself.

I need to get strong so I can pass my paramedic physical.

I'm hoping to return, very soon, to my volunteer fire company.

I just need out of this house.

The only other thing that is requiring time of me is school.

I can work with that.
