There’s something about birthdays ending in zeros.  It’s like every second one seems to have a real ouch to it.

Yesterday’s birthday was one of them.  I suppose it didn’t help that I’d thrown my back out, big time, a few weeks ago.  (The yoga is definitely helping.)

However, on a big-zero birthday, I’ll admit that I’m feeling dangerously close to being one of those old ladies who have nothing to talk about but their aches and pains!

There were other reasons to feel sorry for myself on my birthday, but I refuse to be a complainer.  I’m living a charmed life.  I know that.

Anyway…

I’m continuing to do yoga daily.  Okay, I’m doing yoga most days.  I’ve missed three days in the past 15.  For me, that’s not bad.  One would think it’d be easy to find time for something that makes me feel better… but it’s not.  I guess I’m not quite past the 21-days-to-a-habit hurdle, yet.

And, to be honest, my schedule is kind of overwhelming.  It’s that time of year, and I’m juggling too many things right now.  I’ve been doing that for the past couple of years, actually.

But, that’s why — after November — I’m being very selective about things like personal appearances.  Okay, I’m being more than selective: I’m saying “No, thanks” to them.  The general idea is to cut back on everything that’s not key to creating products and sharing important & unique information.

See… I want next year to be different.  I want it to be a lot different.

That means doing different things.

Meanwhile, I’ve already selected the next 30-day project: No complaining!  (Figure that this post is pre-emptive venting, so the upcoming 30 day assignment will be easier. *chuckle and sigh*)
