Patty :):):) Hi girl. I wish I could blame my gray hair on worrying about you but they got here first.

Yankee hug coming your way ***{{{w/bbq sauce}}}***
 
I completely believe this is your summer bud. For the millionth time, my situation is pretty unique to 99% on here. I have so few distractions compared to you, I often forget what it's like to live in your (being the collective working world) world.

Thanks bud! I really would love to agree, but I think last summer was already my summer. I just kind of want to continue it. It was such an incredible time for me I didn't see any choice, but to change schools so I could have another one.

T2 you sound like me. I am lucky to have so much time to focus on this. My stress tolerance blew out going through major mental illness several years back and it has permanently affected my ability to work. I'm on disability and now that I've adjusted (killer adjustment) I find I am rich in time. I've heard you either have time and no money or money and no time.

I think I read earlier in your diary that you had to quit work.

So how's it going with you?

ps, I'm happy for Cannon too with his summer off.

*yawns and stretches*

*sips coffee*

I had a great night :) Time to get out there and get my walk in - Ma Nature isn't being very nice here :(

I gotta keep this momentum going, I've been super diligent on food and would truly like to get more outside time.

I hope I don't end up in traction and having to post from a laptop :p I'm going to try it out after supper and see how it goes. I really hope I fall in love the workout. It should be fairly comical to watch :D

Good morning Beth :) Thanks the pop-in :) I'm really hoping this coffee pushes me off the couch right quick, time to get something done.

I'll do my swing-by's later.

Man, I'm really getting sick of this weather :mad:

I know how you feel. We had a cold and rainy streak through here last week! Makes me want to eat everything in sight!:eek: Good thing I have some self control!:D

It sounds we're both on the road to repairing our respective situations. I can appreciate the adjustment you've gone through. Personally, I now live off of 60 to 75% of what I use to make and you're 100% about the time too.

In this case I'm turning it into a positive and using my time to restore my health (as best as I can). I now buy what I need, not what I want. It also shows me how foolish and unprepared I was with money in the past.

Getting back to work and/or taking advantage of possible further education is high on my incentive list to lose the weight and attempt better health.

Yes, I had to quit work. U.S. has fairly tough medical requirements for truck drivers to pass (though wouldn't believe it looking at the 'average' drivers). My diabetes and related illnesses really got the best of me to the point where I couldn't do my job properly.

The only thing working against me presently is having too much time in making the right decision on what field to re-enter the working world with. It's a tough decision however, either way I hope to be ready to make the leap here by summer's end.

There is a sublime pleasure in that. (Not sure how to split up quotes)

Well, you are obviously chosing between several good options, any of which will probably be very good.
 
Hey dude. Sorry about the shitty-ass weather. We're having lovely days, but much too cold for spring :( Which is really just a tease. It's like staring out the window at a hot chick who won't put out. :p
Hope you're having a lovely day, nonetheless.
 
Awww thank you dudette :)

Yeah I wah a lot but lots of other people on here are in the same boat with me. The temps are just a bit too low for this time of year but the wet part is pretty standard for April. I just bellyache because I really dig being out-n-about.

I took my neighbor to the hospital, she called me to drive her out for her back problem and was in a lot pain and stuff, so anyway I've made a lot friends in the E.R. over past (not a real proud thing for me) and I ran into a few E.R. nurses on the floor that gave me a double look in disbelief.

Obviously my weight loss was worth discussing. I got challenged to weigh myself on their scale and since it was almost a month since I weighed myself, I took the challenge.

I lost 8 lbs. since last weigh-in. I'm not surprised. Last month's bad news really made me re-evaluate the leaks in my diet and I've worked fairly hard to get back on track. I expected a loss very close to this number because I can actually feel it. I'm just one of those people who 'knows' when I'm doing good or not. With the recent wave of brilliant weight loss pics on here I've been tempted to jump the gun and do new pics but I'm gonna play this to the bone.

The onderland pics are going to be fun to do !! I'm really looking forward to it :)
 
Randy - 8 pounds is FANTASTIC!! I just KNEW you'd have a good month! Getting past the ill effects of the catheter would have been big too!

I look forward to those onderland pictures! Don't bow to peer pressure - take them when you're ready!
