YEA! Made it another year. I turned 78 on Mother's Day

Using my theme from the past 2 years, I am not two thirds of a Boing 787. I will have to come up with some new clever way to announce my age next year as there is no Boing 797 yet. One thing that has not changed is that SP has given me the inspiration to make a huge life style change and I am now down over 60 pounds and within one half pound of my original goal weight. Still not satisfied so I am setting a new goal weight of 165 pounds.

I now know that the road to success is always ...

I now know that the road to success is always under construcion, but I have made the 165 pound goal. WOO HOO. Now I need to address my fitness program. I am not a good exerciser so there is a huge amount of room for improvement.

I hope that you are feeling 100% better after your pacer insertion and that you will heal quickly. Do they have you doing cardiac rehab while you are adjusting? emoticon Take care~~

LOL!!! My son had haggis for the first time today at a local Scottish Game festival. He declares it to be delicious! It's not bad - I would compare it to my family's Pennsylvania Dutch favorite - scrapple...but haggis is blander. Please don't ask what's in haggis - or scrapple. If you eat hot dogs, or any other processed meat stuff, just don't even worry about it.
