This week I stepped on the scale for the first time since before Thanksgiving. I have done really well when it comes to moderation in all things food while also letting myself enjoy the baked goods and sweets of the season. I was hoping to just maintain and even said that in my blog twoContinue reading “When Health Comes Knocking”

New Friends and Old Joy
This week went by really fast it seemed. It was Friday before I even got turned around. I am maintaining weight right now. I feel like the entire Holiday lineup is just a time to survive when it comes to weight. I will get right back to losing after Christmas. But one thing I haveContinue reading “New Friends and Old Joy”
Let It Brew
It’s been a busy week and that started last weekend. On Saturday we went to Loveland and took Franklin his ornaments to put on his Christmas tree and then took him and his girlfriend, Olivia, out to supper at Nordy’s. It was a first time visit for a few of us and it was soContinue reading “Let It Brew”
Holding On To Letting Go
I haven’t been walking much in the last two weeks. I have been doing a workout over my lunch hours (benefit of remote working) using a YouTube channel called “Walking With Rick” which reminds me of a Richard Simmons “Sweatin’ to the Oldies” series or a “Jazzercise” aerobic workout. It is 30 minutes, gets myContinue reading “Holding On To Letting Go”
A Tale of Two Lacys
This week was both stressful and wonderful all at once. The long-awaited shed arrived and was placed on the 20’ x 22’ pad of concrete that was poured 2 weeks ago. It looks lovely. Wade is loving it and I am secretly plotting how I can use a small percentage of it to boost myContinue reading “A Tale of Two Lacys”
Reflection
It has been a long time since I have felt as drained as I do right now. I am blaming the busy-ness and stress right now and really think I am coming up on the end of some of this. I am hoping so anyway. What I am seeing in my body right now isContinue reading “Reflection”
Grit and Grace
This week was one of the busiest, wonkiest weeks I have had in a while. I knew going into it that there was a chance I wouldn’t get much walking in but I had no idea that things would unfold like they did. Our church holds Revival Meetings the first week of November from SundayContinue reading “Grit and Grace”
The Shadowed Fork of Destiny
This week was a good one. I only walked 3 times by choice. Monday’s weather was not cooperative at all. Wednesday I walked, Thursday we had a football game and Friday I had a headache. Saturday I did walk again and managed to tie the fastest mph so far on the route at the BrushContinue reading “The Shadowed Fork of Destiny”
It’s Your World
Today marks one month on this current journey. I am down 20 pounds. That sounds like quite the accomplishment but, honestly, when you are as far behind the 8 ball as I am, it does come off fast and is a lot of water weight to start. But I can feel changes all over myContinue reading “It’s Your World”
