It's a New Year!
I currently deal with chronic health issues from 2 bouts of Lyme Disease, which has changed my immune system, energy levels, and continues to cause joint pain. I've always been ridiculously fit.

What I do decide is what I need to do is become a better person, mom, manager, and friend.
Almost all of those things include taking care of my health. Right now, I am running into some glitches. I went to a specialist for what my physician thought was my gallbladder, but turns out it's a little more serious than that. I am determined to take charge, find out what exactly is wrong and get to the business of getting treatment and getting better.
When I feel bad, my motivation drops off. I thrive on my drive--that thing inside me that makes me want to be a better person, mom, employee... But, when I am not feeling great, like now, I crash.
I am writing this post simply to remind myself to "ride the wave." I might be at a low point but I know I'll come out of it and hit a high point, and everyone in my life wins: my daughters, my bosses, my friends, and co-workers.
I gotta keep the faith and Ride the Wave!
