Stay in this day...

Yesterday I got an email from college. It's exciting when that happens... for about 3 seconds... then I start freaking out a little. It contained four documents. 1)A nice welcoming letter. 2) The form I need to take to a doctor so the doctor can say I'm fit enough for this program. 3) THREE PAGES of things I need to do in a month. Most of them require money I don't have. 4)List of books I need to buy. Luckily my "one day at a time" alanon slogan is one I have really taken to heart when I start freaking out. So I asked myself, "what can I do today?" I RSVP'd for a pre-semester meeting. I registered for all the classes I could get into. I emailed and asked what to do about the classes I couldn't get registered for. (Once I'm registered all my financial aid hoops are officially jumped through.)I emailed and asked if they knew of any CPR/First Aid classes coming up that I could get into. My hands have been hurting and I've been a little worried about how they will hold up during the massage stuff. So I emailed a PT I know and asked if he knew how I could strengthen my hands. One of the things coming up is a 3 day orientation that includes fitness testing. I made a workout plan for the next month. Then I did 30 minutes of yoga and a little later I ran 30 minutes. Today, I got up early and ran before work. I made an appointment for my physical. I found a stress ball to squeeze to strengthen my hands. I also am giving up sweets because too much sugar makes my joints ache. I tracked my food. I found a workout buddy for lunch. That's all I can do until tomorrow.
