Sometimes you just need a break to see things clearly

The last 6-8 weeks have been a real whirlwind. It has been one thing after another and I have been feeling like I just can't keep up with myself. This weekend (since Wednesday) I have been on the Big Island for my Ph.D. program. I have tried to be good, but it just hasn't worked out as planned. I have been sitting in classes for the vast majority of the day every day. Eating hasn't been horrible but it hasn't been great either. It's just all been too much. The good part is that by getting away I have become a little clearer about what I want. I have gotten reenergized about my dissertation and am feeling good about this process again. I have also come to the conclusion that I need to Crossfit and get my eating under control. I get back home on Saturday night and Crossfit starts on Sunday. Time to get this health thing back on track. But I'm feeling good about it. Feeling good about a lot of things. Sometimes you really need to get away to see everything more clearly.
