My 2 cents worth. The only way to combat jobs in america is to increase your human capital. School and hardwork still goes a long way. In the Army we always say adapt and overcome. You have to be ready to move and react at any given moment. I am just commenting on the jobs statement.
well, in terms of practicalities and realities, you've got a good point with the job thing!
Thanks for asking about me. Like you, I'm trying to be more pro-active about my health. I'm glad to hear that you are swimming; that is so good for you and quite a feat. I still don't exercise like I should, but I am eating better and still obsessed with supplements. I also went back to acupuncture today and it was GREAT. Out of intense desperation, I finally went on the Pill to deal with all my 'female' troubles, and it's actually working... this is a huge deal for me.
I have heard it said when you have issue's like the ones you have, the pill can be a big benefit if you can tolerate it. I have seen some girls that get sick by taking the pill. But if it can balance out your harmones (which affects your metabolism and all kinds of other stuff) then its a good thing. I was raised around a lot of girls in the house so I know a thing or two about that stuff.
Glad that it is working. The huge deal would be Catholic family?
As for the swimming, it is really strange because I am getting my body back the way it was in the Army but I have really stopped dropping the weight in the last week or so. I have noticed my clothes getting looser. Oh, well. All that matters is I feel better about myself.
So, what kind of writing do you like to do? What kind of author are you wanting to be? (Journalist, Novelist, Poet?)
I was raised Catholic, but that's not what I meant by huge deal. I never had any birth control-related hang-ups ... probably because I used to see contraceptive cream in my mother's cabinet! Huge deal b/c it's actually working and doing what I'd hoped it would do. I'd taken the pill in the distant past but didn't want to go there again... afraid of side effects, plus I honestly felt like I was too old for it! I just didn't associate being over 30 with taking the pill. But I got desperate, and now that it's actually working, I guess I'm a convert. There are side effects, though. Always a trade-off. But apparently the pill is protective in terms of uterine and ovarian cancers, so that's good.
As for writing: I don't do it enough. Hell, I don't even write in this journal enough. Work kicks my ass and apparently I'm not a dynamo. I need like 8-10 hours of sleep too. What I used to write was poetry... the least marketable form of writing on the planet. I still have dreams though.
