Weigh-in this month saw me at around the same weight as last month, a little high. But, near as I can figure it's probably a combination of two things. First is that I haven't been all that diligent about my diet. More fruit, more eating out than I normally do. Second is that I now … Continue reading Getting Fit

Getting Fit
This month's weigh in saw me running heavier. About 4 lbs. I'm still within a decent weight, but heavier than I'd like. Looking at my tracker, my last peek like this was when I was into weights in Plano. In this case, I'm back where I was back then. I'm diligent about weightlifting. I have … Continue reading Getting Fit
One of Them Weeks
What a soul sucking week. I started yesterday on the phone to the FSA provider. You see, my dentist's business manager thought she was doing me a favor by invoicing me for whitening treatment, saying they wouldn't cover it, which is bullshit. It's an FSA. I can spend those funds on medical costs not covered … Continue reading One of Them Weeks
Pray for Phil
Busted Knuckles Phil is headed into surgery in a few hours, hopefully to correct some issues he's long suffered with. Pray all goes well. I'm about his age. It's sad to see a dude like me suffer. Doesn't seem fair after working hard your whole life, does it. I'll be dedicating my morning prayers to … Continue reading Pray for Phil
Getting Fit
Weigh-in this month had me at the same weight I've been for the last three months. Heavier than I prefer, but my clothes still fit well, if not somewhat loose. This could be due to a number of reasons. The first is that I stopped being as fastidious with my diet on weekends. The girl … Continue reading Getting Fit
Whatever…There are Consequences.
There were a couple of great lines from a book by Robert Fulghum that I've been trying to find for quite some time. Now that I'm done unpacking boxes, I finally found the book which is called "It Was On Fire When I Lay Down On It". It's from a story that he wrote where … Continue reading Whatever…There are Consequences.
That hit Home
I pondered a bit whether to post this at all. DeWayne has a tremendous sense of clarity, and an awesome delivery style. He's done this to me once or twice, where he comes along and leaves me gape jawed. He's reflecting on one of St. Paul's letters (1 Corinthians, I believe) but he delves back … Continue reading That hit Home
He’s Right, of Course
I really enjoy Tack Room Bible Talk, on the YouTubes. Usually, he'll cover a concept, or passage and spend a bit of time fending off the various Pharisees. He'll say, it's not about dogma. He's only interpreting the word. Last week, he veered away from the bible and had a chat for the women. https://youtu.be/XpOLgUZ2yTE?si=AEPhBteVfF4zN5iq … Continue reading He’s Right, of Course
Getting Fit
Haven't done one of these in a minute. Now that I'm settled, I can get back on track with my fitness regimen. It took a bit of a battering over the holidays, especially with the move. My weight is right where it's been for over a year. A little heavier, thanks to the holidays. I've … Continue reading Getting Fit
Resolutions?
It was an interesting New Years. One of the things you'll notice during some holidays in Texas is a certain amount of happy fire. In Plano, that sound would be far off. You'd hear a distinct series of reports, all clipped, in an evenly spaced 6, 7, or 15 pattern. Clearly not firecrackers. So you'd … Continue reading Resolutions?
