Finding the Calm

This morning I have a doctor's appointment, but I've already seen my test results (thank you, Quest Diagnostics, for allowing patients to access their labwork online) and my numbers have improved. I have to do blood tests every quarter now to monitor a couple of borderline health issues, and keep close watch on my diet and the amount of exercise I get every day. It's a pain, but the alternative would be much more painful.

I also had a very bad day earlier this week, during which I almost lost my temper. I've been trying to work on my mindset so that I don't give in to anger anymore. Anyway, I stopped myself from letting the things that triggered it overwhelm me, and instead focused on work, quilting and housecleaning, which always help me find some calm. I probably need to get out of the house and take some long walks while the weather is nice, too.
