Recovery room revisited
Starting to feel a lot better. I've still got some lingering chest/ear congestion, but I've got a lot more energy and feel nowhere near as bad as I did last Wednesday-Friday. Unfortunately, Kailyn's caught the crud now, so she's feeling lousy. Nothing worse that watching a 3-year-old pout all day because she feels terrible and doesn't want to do anything but sleep. It's round 4 for her, too, so I hate it for her.
It's a shame, too, because the weather outside was beautiful today. Hopefully this will continue through tomorrow.
...
Lot of famous people have died lately. Dennis Weaver, Don Knotts, and even Darren McGavin (best known as the dad in "A Christmas Story" and Mr. Madison (dad) in "Billy Madison"). Don't know why, but reading headlines about their deaths in a harsh reminder to me that nothing stays the same forever.
...
Was watching TV today, and saw a commercial where the "We got the beat" song by the Go-Go's was re-written to say, "We got the meat." What idiot came up with that phrase? I wish I could remember what restaurant/food chain was being advertised. But in today's culture, "we got the meat" isn't all that innocent a phrase to blurt out to music. Heh.
...
I want to get aggressive about losing weight and getting in shape. If nothing else, this sick season has convinced me that I need to boost my overall level of physical fitness. I'd like to lose 30 pounds in the next 3-4 months.
Checklist:
- Less Mountain Dew. I drink enough that it could be fed into my veins intravenously.
- Move the exercise equipment out of the bedroom. Right now, our treadmill and weight machine make really good places to hang clothes, but that's about it. Need to move them where they will be used.
- Eat less. Duh. Gotta quit 'value-sizing' everything I order. And start laying off a weekly routine that involves everything from Little Ceasar's $5.00 pizza to Blue Bell Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream
- Get accountability. If I don't, getting in shape will never be anything more than talking about getting in shape.
