Did you happen to catch 20/20 last night? I don’t often venture away from the Food Network, Cardinal’s baseball, or the Discovery Channel – but I’d seen what was on two of them and the third one’s sucking gravedigger knees lately (Never leave us again, Mr. Pujols!)
On last night’s episode, they were exploring health myths – it was pretty interesting stuff. If you missed it, here’s a link that’ll give you a quick look inside the stories. >>> 20/20 Busts 10 Body Myths.
I’ve been thinking about one story in particular. It was about stress and NUTS – Nagging, unfinished tasks. Scientists say that these NUTS add about 8 years to our lives. The more we have, and the longer we allow them to linger, the worse they are on our health.
Time to whip out the NUT cracker! I’m looking around inside my own world and uncovering things that I’ve been “meaning” to get to, “wanting” to take care of, and “wishing” would go away. Frankly, I have more NUTS than I ever knew. Er, I’m not real comfortable with that.
So I’m making a June 24 Resolution. This week I go all medieval on theses lingering annoyances and crack each one wide open. I just might need those 8 years!
Have an amazing weekend,
