Took a while but I am adapting to the new schedule. For several weeks, I was too tired to get anything done after work. Can't really do much before work.
Now I'm beginning to adapt. Slowly. One thing is that I started occasionally walking in the park after work. Last night, I started running for the first time in many years. Not far, total of about 1/2 mile. Probably could have gone a bit further but don't want to make myself sore. Besides, too many other people there getting in the way. However, I didn't die from it. Going to keep gradually extending my range until I can run maybe 5 miles.
I've been so sedentary for so long this is definitely something to pace myself on. However, I feel pretty good today. I'm also lifting weights a little bit while sitting at the computer.
Main point is just getting myself back into shape for energy, clarity of mind and health. Not currently planning on body building or anything like that.
Want to use the increased energy to get other things done. Like work on the house. I have so much to do.
My motivation is coming back. Of course, large part of that is financial and the decreased emotional stress.
