Thoughts on Living the Life Creative
Yeah, baby! We made it to a milestone weight this week despite some additional weirdness and hurdles. Needless to say my eating was extremely limited early in the week following oral surgery. The good news was that by the next day I had no swelling and no pain. By the end of the week I... Continue Reading →
Not going to pretend that I'm proud of this post. Because I'm not. I did not weigh in this week. I was heading into oral surgery, my tooth was finally starting to bother me and that made food selection very limited. So I ended up eating a lot of stuff that simply wasn't going to...

I love baseball. I have since I was a kid. My favorite team has always been the Pittsburgh Pirates. Last week I got to spend time with my favorite human being, my lady wife, watching my favorite team in my favorite sport. And they won. And the young man who graduated from the same high...

Well there had to be an upside coming eventually. I keep thinking that this broken tooth thing was going to work for me as a weight loss tool. And the first two weeks were decidedly not so much.

Not much to report. Mostly a day of travel. Nine more hours on the road. Breakfast was at the hotel. Packed the car with all our souvenirs. R got a variety of things but her pride and joy was a tri-corn hat with cockade and a maple wood fife. My lady wife got a book... Continue Reading →
Woke this morning without any pain again. At least the days start off on the right foot with this foolishness. Breakfast is still on the pancake express. Today it was local place Mama Steve's. The name was just too good to pass up. Mama Steve's is a bit more old fashioned breakfast diner. Pancakes were... Continue Reading →
The good news first. I woke up to no pain in my tooth. Breakfast quickly showed tha t the problem hadn't gone away. As long as I didn't chew on the left I was good. Not optimal but it should work. Breakfast was at IHOP. The two ladies made that choice but it does bring... Continue Reading →
Exercise. I'm not really a fan of the word. You see, I'm basically lazy and have been all of my life. So the idea that I will take time from my schedule and dedicate it to sweaty, boring, repetitious activity just sounds like a dumb idea. But I gotta do it. I am not trying... Continue Reading →
