For the last two weeks, really since May 2023, we have had a bad internet connection. But the last two weeks have been horrible, most of the time seemed like downtime. It got to a point I needed to call Verizon and find out what was happening. I tried numerous times to restart the router and troubleshoot via the Verizon app which they recommend. Then I tried a chat session, the first time we got disconnected due to doing it via my computer, I should have known better. But then I tried again via computer, and the same thing happened. I was pretty upset. I finally decided to try the chat session via my browser on my phone and have it on data only. Well, when the rep needed me to go to my browser and do a speed test, we got disconnected. I was fuming by this time, but trying to keep my cool. I then decided to call and went through everything Continue Reading
Weigh-in #17 – I’ve Been So Busy!
I have literally been so busy, I didn't get a chance to write in my journal this week!! Let alone blog a post. Wow, I need to manage my time better, the older I get the less time I have in a day, what is going on with that? Do you feel that way too? Do tell!

Weigh-in #6 – Keeping On Track
Life is so busy, I forget to post my weigh-in progress in a timely manner. Some things are unavoidable. But as you see by the title, it has been another successful weigh-in. Sometimes I don't know how I can manage my time better. I have a lot of distractions that cannot be helped. Moving on to the weigh-in, here is my latest weigh-in photo. This photo made my legs look weird lol. Those are the kitty slippers I was talking about in another post. I have my eyes on a pair of Hello Kitty slippers similar to these. These are very comfy by the way :) I lost 2.7 lbs, I am happy with that. I have to admit I am a little worried about Sunday's weigh-in. I say this because we had rice a few times this week, not a lot, like 1/2 cup. We haven't eaten rice in about 2 years, just has a lot of carbs. But we have to rotate our stash so that it Continue Reading
