What’s important to you?

I found this little nugget on tumblr and saved it to my phone so that I could talk to myself from time to time. I give great pepe talks! Absolutely, ask any of my friends. But when it comes to myself, sometimes I wonder if I just like the sound of my own voice. Not in everything thank God. Just on things that I feel that I have gotten comfortable in without realizing. It’s one thing to see your weight go up on the scale, to see your size changing (say it with me, waist expansion) and brush it off. It’s another to talk about doing the work and just come home ans lay down. So I decided to do a personal inspection and see exactly what’s going on with me.
What exactly is important to me? Honestly, my health is very important to me. Really my health. I work in a hospital and even if it’s in the IT department, you can’t help seeing what’s happening around. As a matter of fact, just building the software for the hostpital, you are introduced to terminlaogy that you never knew existed. Frankly it’s pretty scary and sometimes keeps me up at night. I figure if I’m not at my best, I can take care of anything else. I have money problems. If I can’t go to work I can’t fix that. I have a daughter with too much energy for tired little me. If I can’t jump up and down or run around after her, she’ll slowly become a slob and that’s all on me. Therefore, if it’s important to me, let me take care of it. If I can make sure my daughter has a ready lunch box every day when she goes to school. I can take the time and do the same for me and ensure I have some good stuff in there. Why not start there? I have to work, I have to eat. Instead of spending $10 for lunch (Boston is no joke), I can work on carving out a little time to make sure I get some good stuff in my body.
Lunchbox prep is the word here. Let’s do it.
