I feel that you have accomplished things. Walking for more than 10 minutes counts as exercise as long as you do it non-stop - as you do. So that is a big step. Waking up without an alarm clock is a big luxury that I, too, am enjoying now because I go to bed early. It is supposed to be much healthier for you than with an alarm. Sleep is very important for bp all-in-all, and I am glad that your p-doc is helping with sleep. Setting up two blogs ready for content and ads is big, too. So you have not wasted your time.
