Well, 28 doesn't feel too shabby to me. I really am for the most part,just in awe of the fact that I will be 30 before I know it. It really amazes me sometimes, because as your body gets older, inside you don't feel as though you have changed much, but your body is always ready and willing to give you a reality check.
I am just wishing for better health in the new year-my body really got a beat down from my Chronic Fatigue syndrome. I hope I have energy to play more with my kid, to keep house better and of course to write consistently in my paper journals.I love how the volumes of my diary are piling up-I can't even describe what it's like to sit and look through them. I don't do it often, usually around the time of my birthday, I'll pull out the big container of diaries and notebooks. Seeing my life go by at the turn of the page, (it may sound narcissistic), but that is truly my favorite type of reading.

28
It is only five days away until I turn 28 already. I haven't really thought much about how in only two years I am going to be 30. It doesn't really bother me right now. I am more amazed at how close I am to 30 than anything, especially since I had got mono so bad when I was seventeen it could have killed me. Every year on December 6th I sit and reflect on the fact that I am lucky to have made it another year.
Even though I am very lucky, I still always have to have a vice of some sort that is not good for me. I have an addictive personality on top of everything else. For instance, I started smoking again. I know, I know, it's a disgusting habit but I don't smoke much during the day, about four a day. Sometimes if I am having a stressful day I'll smoke a couple more, but I try really hard not to smoke the least amount my nerves will afford me in a day.
I don't drink much at all and there are very few vices left that do not cause some sort of harm to you. Exercise would be a better alternative to handle stress, and I do have a video and a dvd to help me get a good workout in a short amount of time (I stay at home with the baby every day), but in the winter I tend to get lazy. I really should start working out soon, though at the moment I just don't have any motivation.
My kid is a meatloaf so lifting her during the day has really made my biceps and legs pretty strong. Maybe I'll integrate using my kid instead of weights like I used to do when she was easier to pick up. She gets a good kick out of it anyway, so it's win-win.
