It seems to once again be Monday, which means it is time for … DUN DUN DUNNNNN … THE OFFICIAL WEIGH IN! I am not sure why I am shouting it to the masses this Monday, since my progress was not one to impress the them. I definitely am not a contender for the Weight Loss Poster boy this […]
Somehow it became monday again. I am not sure how that keeps happening when I least expect it. Of course for this jobless couch potato Monday is just like any other day EXCEPT … … today is weigh in day. The dread of my approach to the scale this morning would probably make a very long blog […]

Being the make it up as I go along type, my “routine ” is very … let’s call it flexible. By someone who actually has an organized life’s standards, my life would appear to be a relaxed form of chaos. That said, my so called “progress” this week seems to have progressed in the wrong direction … depending on […]
