Time Flies When You're Having Fun!

Go to work, go to Oz (gym), go home and have dinner, get on Facebook, go to bed.

But last night my lady friends and I went out for dinner then to the movie. We say CRAZY HEART and it was very, very good. Jeff Bridges is an incredible actor, the story line was well written and although some of the twists were predictable, the the outcome was not.


It's worth going to see if you want to be entertained by a movie with a deeper meaning to life than just fluffl

Whopper Wednesday!

After being gone 12 hours yesterday, I came home to eat an over-cooked meal, then off to get Ed's truck. Home at 9:30pm, then up to the airport at 10:30 to pick up Ed and Cathy from their 2 month vacation to Bali and Australia and YES! They brought me some salt and pepper shakers from Australia!!!

LIVING

As time keeps on ticking, I can feel this or that not working quite as well as it used to...ya know; the hearing, the vision, the bowels, etc. And it's so much easier, these days, to pack on a few pounds here and there. So I've been thinking about how I want to feel in life and especially what control I have over the quality of my life now and eventually, in those last years.

At the beginning of last December, I decided to go to the doctor to get my blood levels checks and it was just as I was afraid of - high blood sugar, weight gain in addition to me not sleeping and a couple other issues. Type 2 diabetes is in my family and the doctor said I have to get things under control, or I'm well on my way of having it. She gave me a list of vitamins to take, sent me to a nutritionist, yodda yodda yodda.

Two months later, things are better. 5 days a week of 45 minute aerobic workout plus another 30 - 45 minutes on weights does wonders for the body; the pounds are starting to come off and the blood sugar is back to normal! I stopped the sweets, am eating more protein, fiber and less fat. Yet, I have to stand back and ask myself if I am really healthy. Physically? Emotionally? Psychologically? Sexually? Is it an ongoing process that we need to work on lifelong, or should we just be satisfied with the majority of aspects and accept the ongoing fact that we all grow old and the body doesn't function as well, and somethings not at all??? The questions may seem rhetorical, but they are worth pondering...seriously pondering...
