Starting over (post attempt #2)

So, I first posted my weight here on New Years Day 2009, 150 days ago. Today I am still the same weight. I have gone down, and then back up. I need to lose this weight. I'm already on one med and don't want to have to take more. If I continue the way I am I will require meds for other weight-associated diseases. If I lose the weight I will probably be able to stop taking what I'm currently on. My hips and knees will probably hurt less, and I will look and feel better in general. I need to get serious and disciplined about this. I am starting over today.

Starting over

Oh crap---I typed this long post, got some error message and lost the whole thing! Test, test...

Images from yesterday's parade and ceremonies. I think we all need the reminder once in a while to pray for those fighting for us now and to remember those from the past.

The sky, the sky, the beautiful sky

I have always loved taking pics of the sky and clouds. In fact, my kids tease me because my camera is always pointed upward. I'm currently taking a photography class to complete my fine arts minor, and was very happy that this week's shoot sheet included sky pics! Here are a few that I snapped last night...

Yesterday dd was cleaning out one of my cupboards (she's my personal organizer) and she came across an old portable cassette player (remember the walkman from the 80's??). I made her bury it quickly in the trash before the dork saw it! LOL
