Much More Better Monday

Well, last night I decided that I would try sleeping without the humidifier and I managed to sleep about the same as I had been with it. Anyway after getting up, I made myself some breakfast and then went in and read the paper. The mail came just after I finished the paper so I opened it up.

I did not look at it because I wanted to take a walk before it got too warm outside. I walked for about three miles again and stopped a couple times to talk to people working in their front yards. By the time I got back from my walk, I was ready to sit down and read the mail.

I felt pretty good, so I decided that I would run to the credit union to deposit a bunch of insurance checks that I had but did not feel well enough to go to deposit them. Anyway, while I was out I got some gas for my Honda power mower, it takes better gas than my Wrangler, and of course it uses a lot less. I have been using the power mower for the last couple weeks as I just have not felt all that well and did not have the energy to push the reel mower.

After I got back from running around doing some errands, I made my self some lunch. After I cleaned up my lunch mess, I went outside and finished edging the rest of the front yard that I started last week.

After I finished edging, I decided to go into the house and rest as I am trying not to over extend myself. I finished reading the other book and then read the latest National Graphic magazine. Kathleen had gone to meet with Andrea at the craft store, so when it got to be 1900, I decided to make myself some dinner.

I had wild rice and a Boca burger, I am trying to watch what I am eating and I have lost about fifteen pounds in the last week. That is from eating less, walking and doing some strength training.

I have needed to loose some weight for several years, but I just have not done it. My doctor has told me for the last couple of years that I need to loose weight, so I hope that next month when I see him again for my physical I will have lost the weight and kept it off. I have found a pretty good plan, at least it has been working well for me so far and I hope that I can stick with it.

Well, Kathleen still is not home, and I think that I have said all I can think of for now, so good night.
