I used to just read about it, but now I live it. This past Christmas for one reason after another tired me out completely that going back to school felt like the break compared to the two-week Christmas vacation. Not that I'm complaining. I LOVE Christmas. It's the most exciting time of the year for my family and me. But let's see. There was the scuba trip to Batangas and overnight at Tagaytay; of course the novena masses (missed 3), some of which I sang for with the Holy Angel Village choir; midnight mass with Miguel playing Joseph; the midnight drive to Cavite; my in-laws' trips to the hospital bookending Christmas week; the extended Nacpil New Year's eve; Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar in Bataan; and on top of all that, stress from our very trying maid. Fortunately I had my "annual" bout with colds early November (when we were in Hong Kong, but that's another story) if not I think I would have gotten it worse.
Putting a different spin on it, I guess I'm just getting old and my body's starting to creak and groan. As a friend commented: time for weight training, cardio, and diet. Zip out of three's (not) bad.
