The Upward Climb

Yesterday, I began the upward climb on still another attempt to become fit and healthy. My brother showed my how to use links, and I have been keeping my progress here. I have a long road to go and hope this time it sticks.

My young son was having a rough time sleeping last night. My wife took care of him but he was throwing tantrums very vividly. It worries me that he does this at 18 months. I worry he could end up out of control like so many of the child-actor types that we see. I do not know what to do to get him to stop.

Rerun of a Renewal Of Life & Death

It has been quite some time since I posted. All manner of activities have occupied my body, mind and soul. However, the death of my mother has permeated most everything that I do. My brother (http:frumpyprofessor.blogspot.com) has been writing extensively about his grief. My grief is much the same, but I cannot find any solace in writing these words myself. I am unsure if I shall ever complete my grieving.

Yet, my return (which was a result of much cajoling and pushing from my older brother) is more about a renewal of my efforts to become healthy and happy. I walked approximtely 5.5 miles thus far this morning. If I walk home today, I will have walked another 5.5 miles. My vital statistics will be posted on my companion site http://konradsvitals.blogspot.com.
