I think the worst part of a diet, is not the exercise, well I guess that is too lol but it’s adjusting to not eating, what you normally were eating, or should I say the portion size. The first few weeks, you go hungry. I hate that! I can’t even be near the kitchen, because I get hungry haha. I try to drink water when I get hungry, it helps fill me up. I’m trying to stay under 1,660 (corrected) calories a day, some may think that is a lot, but I think for myself it’s ideal at this time, perhaps later it will change. But as mentioned, it’s just those moments when I feel the hunger pangs. I can’t wait until I get passed that phase. As for exercise, it’s difficult for me, as my knees are bad. I injured one over 5 years ago, and have not been able to have a doctor look at it. It’s bad enough I just got a bill, that was not fully covered, Continue Reading

Sixteen Days
A whole sixteen days since I posted a blog. WOW!! That was quick! Is it only me, or does the time go by pretty quickly? Seems like it does to me. Why is it that when we were young, it seemed like time dragged on, and now as an adult, it goes way too fast? I suppose that is just the way it is. This post was imported from my other closed-down domain. I was watching Daisy today, and she was actually trying to get into the kleenex box she got into and fell asleep in when she was smaller, let me show you the picture when she was just an itty bitty baby, okay it was only a month ago, but still, she is too adorable. And then just today, as I mentioned, she tried getting in it again. I had to snap some pictures, because it was just happening, had to get it. This was a series of pictures, with a cool song attached, as you can see Continue Reading
Rain, Rain, Go Away …
If it isn't snow, it's rain. Ahh how I look forward to Spring, even though in reality our Spring doesn't last long, it seems to get right into Summer weather. I loved California spring season, it was truly spring. Anyway, as William said, better rain than snow. He's been living in the Boston area all his life, so he is hating on snow, and welcoming rain, weather is a lot warmer. Although in defense of snow, there have been times it seems rather warm, but then the snow melts. I enjoy a good blizzard, I know some folks hate it, especially if pipes start freezing and bursting, as it has done in some areas this past snowfall. So I'm on a cleaning war path, not because I like cleaning, I actually hate it, if I can afford to hire a maid I would have one come once a month hehe. I'm getting old, I have an excuse. And that excuse further Continue Reading
