Health Notes!!

My love handles have grown into an official belly over the last few years!

I have a new gimmick for losing weight every week or so, but they never seem to last!! My diet is a lot better with less calories, high fiber, etc...but the scale is not showing any progress. My attraction to boozing on Saturday nights isn't helping either. I log all my calories in TDP (The Daily Plate.com) but I am like a dishonest golfer giving myself Mulligans all the time!!

My sleep has gotten better recently now that I have new Cpap gear for my Sleep Apnea. I feel best on the weekends since I can sleep more hours. I guess I should start going to bed earlier but starting work later sounds like more fun!! A newly acquired mask to shield my eyes is a major improvement!! No sun waking me up prematurely!!

Staying pretty consistent with the exercise thing. I especially love the Elliptical at the Gym. I love the Hot Tub and Steam Room even better!!

When I don't make the gym, I try and hike at least 3 miles! I can't really do any resistance training since I had back surgery last February.

Captain's Log

Lots of action with the my Posse today!!
Cousin Smash and his lovely wife have returned from a big trip out to Providence Rhode Island...The trip was highlighted by two of his sons announcing upcoming nuptials! This means a great party is coming next year in Cincinnati and Boston!!! He married off his two girls not long ago and it was a killer party in New York and Providence!!
Other headlines include my brother Jaxun and his lovely wife Peg are finally going to sell there house in Toledo's version of Hell's Kitchen and move to the Burbs!! This came as a total but wonderful shock!! They will no doubt be wondering why they didn't do it sooner like I was when I finally fled the mean streets of East Toledo. When the house we grew up in burned down, maybe we should have took that as a sign of some sort!!

Speaking of moving, my luck is still running hot as I got a check in the mail from Ohio Unclaimed Funds for 5 thousand big ones!! This means I to will be moving...but only across the hall to a 2 bedroom apartment with much more living space!! Also have a 50 inch Plasma targeted for my Living Room!! Should be real sweet for this upcoming football season!!

Lots of excitement everywhere and Summer starts winding down!!
