10...

No, not the Dudley Moore/Bo Derek flick...

213.8 minus 203.8 equals 10...

I finally made good on many a New Year's resolution.

Nothing fancy...no long walks or hikes or bike rides. On the weekdays, simple old-fashioned oatmeal and half a banana for breakfast, quinoa with chicken sausage and cooked vegetables like bell peppers, bok choy, zucchinis, yams and the like for lunch, and tuna, salmon burgers, or turkey breast sandwiches for dinner. Maybe an occasional burrito from Baja Fresh or Chipotle.

The renovations on our house have also contributed to the weight loss. Climbing ladders, carrying boards, moving furniture, sanding wood, digging dirt, chopping wood.

Of course, losing this weight during this time of year is very good. That means with summer soon approaching that means more outdoor activities camping, hiking and fishing.

My concern?

Metabolic syndrome.


It is time I start taking control of things I have control over.

I hope to shed more tonnage.

HEAVEN IS FOR REAL

My MIL, wife and me went to see the 3:45 p.m. showing of "Heaven Is for Real."

Someone had purchased the first 90 tickets to the showing and we just happened to be one of the 90 lucky ones!

I am not a religious person. Spiritual, yes.

After the movie was over, I realized I am in heaven. I have a wonderful wife and family and I have a wonderful home.

I cannot not ask for anymore than that.

Yes, on earth as it is in heaven.
