Journeys of a Ranger of the North

[Tamesis Greer]

I've been away at the NF Academy, but the facebook group has gotten huge and hard to follow. There's also no good place for a battle log, so I'm back here for another try at the general forums.

 

Hi, I'm Tamesis Greer, a ranger from the north who has been living in exile in other parts of the country. I've been working in a field I loved, and am now about to leave it due to burnout. My current job is too big for one person, and the things that drive me crazy will be present in most other jobs in this field, so I'm sadly giving it up. It was also an office job, which is not great for a ranger who prefers to spend at least part of the day being active outdoors. I just got approved for medical leave so I can heal up, and I'll be moving back north in the next couple months, with plans to start my own business and do some part- or full-time work on the side (hopefully in a bookstore).

 

My health/fitness goals are:

 

-To get my diet back under control (mostly paleo)

-To establish a regular workout schedule. I will do SOMETHING every day

-To get 8 hours of high quality sleep every night.

 

I'm hoping the above, along with not working at my stressful job anymore, will help me lose the flab that's crept on with increasingly alarming speed and help me get my energy back.

 

Life goals:

 

-Get my business started

-Get ready to move

 

I'll be setting daily and weekly goals to keep myself on track. It's time for a new page and a new journey. Onward!
