Heading Out Tomorrow
And this is just a fun post to see if things are working how I want. Take care and see you tomorrow!! -M
Read MoreThe Week In Review
I was committed to not letting more than a week go by without posting something. It would appear that I am one day overdue!! It has a been a busy week. Week and a half is probably more appropriate, but who’s counting? So, without further delay, I present the week in review, with a pictorial. [image:83:c:s=1:l=x]The cousins came in from Seattle to stay for a week. They arrived Easter weekend. [image:82:c:s=1:l=x]They played and played and played some more. Here we see them taking a rare...
Read MoreNot Another Lame Post
[image:59:c:s=1:l=x]So I really don’t have a subject today. I mean, I could tell you about weighing in on Saturday (194.0) and then again on Sunday (195.5), but that would only depress me. So I’ll skip that part, because I have no idea how many calories a small bowl of Cheez-Its has!!! (apparently some 1.5 pounds worth!!) Then I could regale you with stories of children, and pictures, but I don’t have any. For what that’s worth, Olivia has her first tooth coming in as of...
Read MoreWhat’s Wrong With the Blog??
Some bloggers say they don’t have anything to write about. I, personally, have never felt that way. Of course, no one really visits this here blog, so I suppose what I do write about isn’t that interesting. Or relevant. Or funny. Or even mildly entertaining. Or… and the list goes on. So what am I doing wrong? What do other blogs have that mine doesn’t? I looked back and realized what may be missing from the blog. Not altogether missing, but enough that keep all two of my...
Read MoreCokaholism update: Relapse!!!
I fell off the wagon! Things were going well for me and my new challenge to lay off the Coke. So on Saturday I had a hankerin’ for something sweet to drink. I thought, “I’ll just get a caffeine free soda, and that’ll be good.” After all, I said “no Coke”, not “no soda” (although the ultimate goal is to give up all beverages that aren’t healthy). So I found myself at the 7-11 in Oregon City and I spotted an A&W Sparkling Vanilla...
Read MoreGiven’ Up My Morning Fix
Yesterday I was sitting at my desk here at work, and I looked at all the empty 20 oz. Coke bottles, and I realized, that’s a lot of money. Yes, when you consider the cost of each bottle is $1 from the ol’ vending machine, it isn’t a good representation of my discretionary funds. Not to mention, counter-productive to my newest attempt at getting in shape!! So today is day one of no Coke. It’s 10:30 and I’m feeling okay. I started the day off with some water and then...
