I did not want to get up this morning. A phone call from my doctor yesterday disturbed all attempts at sleep last night. But I knew I had to get up - go do my workout and then come home, collect the boy and take him for his learner's permit test at the DMV. I had made a promise and my lack of sleep was of no importance. Promise made, promise kept.
I usually waver on promises I make to myself however, unless they involve chocolate! I find I am much better at keeping promises made to others - and I am (perhaps) becoming wiser in offering those promises. I no longer feel I have to extend myself 80 different ways, just a few and done well and in a timely manner. This is one of the valuable lessons in age and experience.
Over spring break I did promise myself to finish a couple of books - so perhaps I will go and keep that promise.
