Now, now, bad children, it’s not what you think. My pants keep falling off because I keep exercising and…gasp…eating right! Now I really don’t pay that much attention to what I eat on the weekends, but I have been watching what I eat more, and I have tried to swim at least 3 times a [...]

Wow, what beautiful weather we’ve had here recently! It’s been in the 60s (even in the 70s some!) and it is wonderful, a big change from the single digit temps of just a few days ago. I took every opportunity to get outside, just because I don’t know when the weather will wise up and [...]

So yesterday, I tried to give blood. I’ve tried before, but my iron was too low. (I’m not a big “meat-eater” so that is probably why.) This time though, my iron was fine. But we had an issue. It took the nurse forever to find the vein in my arm, and then, when she finally [...]
