112913 - Ingwaz

Yes! Today there is some proof that allt he hard work is crating something.  The seed has sprouted, and we get a little taste (or visual) of the material/ physical/ financial results.   Congratulations!

****************************

Since there have been many things in action, many skills and habits being practiced, I actually had a lot of results.  Technically, having a today is a result of all the hard work.

But specifically, and the things that struck the biggest chord for possibilities of the earthen nature, have to do with my physical health/ well being.

One, I continued on the insurance quest.  Just the thought makes me want to scream and bury my head in the sand.  Frankly, I am ambivalent about having insurance, and, it is true, I hope the next major medical issue I have just kills me in one fell swoop rather than having to deal with the crisis of bills & health care professionals and EVERYONE having an opinion on how I should behave.  But, until then, being healthy in America takes a lot of cash!  So right now, I am viewing having insurance like having a membership in a club.  I may not use the equipment every day, but at least when I want to, I can.  And, right now, I feel better having the insurance than not.  Shrug.

So.  Yesterday I took the next step in exploring the insurance possibilities available through (or due to?) the new policies of President Obama.  Since, in my perspective, medical costs are scandelously high, it's possible this Insurance Act (I don't know the official name or designation) was created because I need it.  I think it's wrong that everyone should be required to have insurance, but, since I do actually want the insurance, I'm going to reach out with both hands and grasp whatever assistance is offered that feels right for me.  Basically, taking control of my health.  (Or taking another step toward it.)

And speaking of steps, the other thing that bloomed as a possibility yesterday was a health app on my phone.  I was exploring the app store for emoticons (I do not like the emoticons available on my phone) and between one thing and another, ended up looking at the S-Health app.  Which will, when I am diligent, track calories in and out, steps taken, and (may it please my future self), weight lost.

Sadly, because I spent all night playing with apps (most of which I uninstalled almost immediately), I am behind schedule now, so I am going to post this without editing and hope to return to it later.   (Though, let's face it.  Once it's posted, I tend to move on.)

I hope you have a great day!
