Allergies are a nightmare this Summer
This morning I woke up and my head felt as if the insides were scrambled by the hand mixer I bought earlier this year. It would be nice to use that appliance again but I think one of the floor … Continue reading
Tokyo achieved!
I’m pretty behind on achieving this destination as I slacked in February thanks to the Floor Stooges, recuperated a tad in March, then repeated the slacking in April for reasons I cannot remember as being valid. For May I’m really … Continue reading
Doctor and therapist say I’m still “sane” for early 2022!
A good double whammy for the Spring! Especially since personal matters are going well, work is…work, that’s why it isn’t called fun, especially with the pandemic. The bigger, ongoing concern was in the last session with my therapist, she wants … Continue reading
Hooray! My vision or eyeballs, are holding steady!
I accidentally discovered I was overdue for an eye exam and it only happened thanks to me stepping on my glasses; the joys of sleeping on a mattress on the floor. How did I pull this off in my youth? … Continue reading
How March 2020 v. 3 Feels
Of course, I was pretty fat two years ago but the graphic of Kermit is a more accurate portrayal regarding my frustration with trying to lose the stress-eating weight I gained last month. At least I didn’t break my March … Continue reading
Moscow Achieved…just great
Had I known Putin was going to invade Ukraine with so much certainty, I would have skipped Moscow as the next destination but it happened. It’s not the Russian people’s fault and they don’t deserve to be punished over something … Continue reading
One Thousand Days!
Not bad, it just took me about 6.75 years to do this and sadly I managed to get here without going to the gym every time. All those recent, stressful days involving the floor installation or when walking all over … Continue reading
First Perfect Month in a couple years
It has been a painful few days but I finally achieved a goal I’ve been dying (nearly) to do since the Pandemic kicked in. Thanks to a really long, brisk walk around downtown Austin on New Year’s Day, I got … Continue reading
Fifty perfect weeks of exercise!
This year is really going strong! I earned a perfect Exercise Week for the 50th time. Yeah, it’s not really that impressive. In many ways, all those little badges you can earn for achievements are the original NFTs!
Finally under 260 pounds!
It took well over a year but c’mon, I really didn’t get serious until I finally gave up and joined Planet Fitness (or Fatness as I call it for my condition). Getting down to this lower weight was my diehard … Continue reading
Current Exercise Streak ends at 23
I know that doesn’t sound like a very impressive number but given how lazy, fat and apathetic I got during the Pandemic. What about the bike you bought last year? It tends to work out on weekends more often. I … Continue reading
Got my booster shot against CV-19 today
Not sure if the booster is making me tired, the long weekend or the aftermath of Daylight Savings Time ending. Just glad I had it done as Winter will kick in. Can’t get a flu shot though for about four … Continue reading

The Doctor has declared me “sane” for the holiday stretch!
It wasn’t as if the outcome was in doubt but I like to make sure I make my appointment with my doctor, let him know I am getting better. Better at powering through all the crap cold medicine throws my … Continue reading
First cold of the Winter season, ugh!
I want to be perfectly clear, it isn’t Covid-19! I started coming down with cold or flu-like symptoms around Wednesday as the temperature dropped and then I felt the sweats. I know there are all the naysayers about the vaccine, … Continue reading
Joined Planet Fitness, neither a trick nor treat
While the world, especially Amerika, continues to sit on its collective thumbs on what to do, what to open, etc. I finally gave up and joined the Planet Fitness a few blocks from my house since I seriously doubt the … Continue reading
