My 2022 word is ... renew. Hmmmm .... I need to renew my organizing scheduling again. After a brief cold, visiting my dad, then visiting my sis ... I am off and need to get back on .... exercise and my scheduling notebook.

I have not been posting because I have not had time to get on here. Homework for class is intense. I use to use my weekends to plan and reflect. I haven't had a free moment to do that. I'm looking forward to the day when I am caught up enough to do that again.

My Mon-Fri routine now is get up, eat, walk, school, work, housework, family life work, walk, school, bed. Weekends are now family life, school, and housework. With the work challenge over, I'm hoping that I get caught up with work in the next two weeks. That will free up time to get on here more often.

Mary, you have been missed.
What a busy time you have had, I do hope that the studies are going well and that you are learning a lot.

It does not take to long to get off track does it?
The key thing I have learned is to not give up and to just jump right back in.

I will be back to posting this week. I really happy that I'm taking classes. It's been great fun for me but at the same time, it's tedious with lots of time and effort put in.
