My ups and downs

I am an active 73 year old. I love to travel with my husband and our friends. We try to go someplace interesting every year. Last year we went to Disney World without children and had a great time. We also enjoy dancing and go square dancing and round dancing every week. Both of us enjoy the dance classes we take. It is fun and good exercise.

I have been working to lose weight for several years. I gain some and then lose some and then gain it again. I am tired of losing the same pounds over and over. This time I plan to keep it off by weighing myself regularly and not allowing the scale to creep up.

I liked your comments on my blog -- and I try to do the same as you, for it is the perfect time to eat things they don't like, or DO things they would not enjoy. Of course the things I do to entertain myself are a bit different when I'm in Glendale instead of in Yarnell. But we have to work with what we have, right?

Hugs, Eve

Thanks for your comment on my 5K blog. It was a fun day and a great accomplishment for me.

I know that most people can grow tomatoes and zucchini, but so far it hasn't worked out for me. I tried in Glendale and it didn't work -- so I figured for sure up in Yarnell I would have good luck. Wrong!

It's not so bad with the eating arrangements. My DH uses canned soups like Progresso sometimes, or frozen TV dinners, while I make myself a smoothie with yogurt, protein powder, etc. Lunch is at times a sandwich. We only have sit-down type of dinners 3 or 4 times each week, so it makes it easy.

Thanks for stopping by -- I really do like our relaxing summers, and we have enough appointments, etc. to where we come back to Glendale every couple of weeks. Sometimes we stay a day or two, sometimes almost a week -- depends on what is planned.

You got it! When I get to "25" cats you'll know I've rounded the bend, and I'll probably be an eccentric old lady who wears purple and looks for stray cats in the neighborhood. emoticon
