Mutual Respect
It is hard living a mutually respectful life when those you live with have no concept of doing so. It is also hard to live a healthier lifestyle when those you life with are constantly throwing obstacles in your way.
I worry about my future if I can’t be the healthy person I need to be. I worry about my sons future if I am not given the space and time to take care of myself.
You would think I was asking for someone else to make an effort, but I know that isn’t an option. You can’t ask someone to be or do something they don’t want to be without making them sad, angry or resentful, but it also isn’t fair to try and hold someone back from what they need?
I want to enjoy life and it is hard enough watching someone you care for on a path of destruction, but if I focus too much on that, I wont be able to take care of myself.
My computers was destroyed while my daughters dog was here last month so I haven’t been able to keep up on my fitday.com stuff. It is upsetting because I can’t really judge what I am eating and calories burned and right now I have to be on top of it. I hope Dell is able to repair it and get it back to me soon.
