Good News
Saturday, January 13th, 2007The return of the two kidnapped boys safely to their families is very good news. So often we hear about kids disappearing and never again being seen alive. I only hope those boys weren’t treated too badly during their captivity, especially the one who was gone for four years, and I wish them […]
This is Tough
Saturday, January 13th, 2007My body is not enjoying the lack of breads, boxed cereals, and other unhealthy foods that I’ve cut out of my diet. I’ve got to start eating more fiber-rich fruits and vegetables that will fill me up better - though I have been having at least an apple, and oatmeal with fruit, each day […]
Cold…Everything
Saturday, January 13th, 2007Still no really good exercise to report. I took a couple laps across the building where I work yesterday (which would be the equivalent of about four blocks), but it was much too cold to go outside and I really wasn’t dressed properly. I won’t make that mistake again.
Hopefully, the temperature tomorrow will […]
The Worst Mistakes
Thursday, January 11th, 2007Humans are prone to making errors at work - we’ve probably all done something incorrect on the job that was caught, and corrected, by another person at a later date. This is entirely understandable and we have to remember that we are all “only human.”
The trouble is that some people’s jobs can literally lead […]
Feelings
Thursday, January 11th, 2007This morning, I feel beaten and sore. We’ve had a couple tough days, family-wise, and I wasn’t in a place to get out and exercise at all. I woke up this morning feeling most of the muscles in my body - especially the left calf that I strained while hurrying out of work […]
So Has the Scale
Thursday, January 11th, 2007Our digital scale got a little waterlogged yesterday and first started registering as “E” (error) before trying to tell me that I’d gained ten pounds. Fortunately, we have an older scale in the house as well - and I don’t think it’s entirely accurate, but it is registering at about 202 for me, fully […]
Morning Has Broken
Monday, January 8th, 2007Today is one of those very long days that began for me at 3:40am. The reason I woke up so early is that I’m serving as transportation for my oldest daughter and she’s being scheduled for very early shifts (last week she had two 2am ones). I’d rather wake up and take a […]
Sign-Ups
Monday, January 8th, 2007Another year has now officially begun for me in the exercise department. How can I tell…?
I’ve just signed up for two new fitness websites. For the past couple years, I’ve come across interesting new places to register that are supposed to keep me on the path to a fitter me. The problem […]
One Week
Sunday, January 7th, 2007The new year is one week old and many things remain very much the same as they did back in the old one. Life doesn’t noticeably change overnight so I have high hopes that, as the year progresses, some things begin to improve. One of the things I’d really like to see change […]
Nothing Yet
Sunday, January 7th, 2007This is not good. I still haven’t managed to get out for my longer weekend walks for a variety of reasons, none of them truly valid, and I’ve got to push myself to at least get outside on occasion. Walking outdoors in January is very tough because the weather tends to be so […]
