Thoughts on Living the Life Creative
Yes, I was AWOL last week. When I got on the scale the number was so bad I just didn't want to deal with it. I did NOT cross the 200 threshold but I came within sniffing distance of it. I just couldn't face it. In fact, I spent most of the week in a... Continue Reading →
Sorry for the lack of a post this week. My daughter is visiting. So I'm busy. Talk with you next week! It's a new beginning.
Too angry and depressed to even talk about it. It was a stupid week. My office has no air conditioning so I've been trying "alternate office space" at local coffee shops. Which means I'm drinking iced tea and lemonade with the "occasional" treat. All week. The result was fairly predictable. This week my daughter is... Continue Reading →
As we continue our intentional exploration of our new home I will, from time to time, offer these special posts. So we tried again for a Farmer's Market. There's a big sign saying there's one every Saturday all summer just down the road from us. We saw no other sign of said Farmer's Market and... Continue Reading →
Something silly and something sad this week. Bad news first. I have never been in a city anywhere and seen this many, what to call them, panhandlers, beggars, homeless people looking for some help. I have certainly seen them in Buffalo, Pittsburgh, NYC, Toronto, Chicago, San Francisco and more. But I have seen more in... Continue Reading →
Back at it. Better food discipline, better exercise, better result. Gee, who knew it was this simple? The reality is that I don't have any underlying factors for being overweight. So, for me, it is just this simple - eat less, exercise more, lose weight. I know that it can be much, much more difficult... Continue Reading →
Don't have a lot to add this week because I spent most of last week in Philadelphia. Which was fun but not really part of this series of posts. I am struck by the racial diversity I encounter on a daily basis here. Living in rural/small town WNY there was a very limited diversity to... Continue Reading →
Sigh. There are weeks where you fool yourself. You fool yourself that you're being more disciplined than you are. You fool yourself that you're getting more exercised than you are. You flat out lie to yourself that all that extra exercise means you can eat more food and you'll still lose weight. I had just... Continue Reading →
July 13, 2014 - If it weren't so frustrating it would be wonderful to be me. So after I watched a bit of the World Cup final (didn't see the goal), I wandered over to my new gate for my new flight. While it was in a completely different concourse a few things seemed familiar.... Continue Reading →
(July 13, 2014) - My friends know that I bear a curse. Often the first words out of their mouths are "Any trouble this time?". And then they laugh. You see, I have a travelling curse. It's been going on for years now. I get delayed, bumped and re-routed. If there is any bad weather... Continue Reading →
