All things are become new again. Oh, how I have looked forward to making my new year's resolutions. Let me see; where do I begin? OK; here is my list:
1. No more drunken orgies
2. No extramarital sex with loose, sleazy women.
3. No getting blown out of my socks on hallucinogens,crack or cannabis.
4. No gorging myself on cottage cheese or eggplant.
5. No watching Jersey Shores on TV.
6. No more bungee jumping.
Of course, I didn't do any of these things last year either; but I don't believe in making resolutions I can't keep.
Going back to work in the morning; and it doesn't bother me. These eleven days off have been pretty nice. I'm pretty rested up, and don't mind going back to work. I have another temporary layoff in a couple weeks - unless they change their mind. I just view these temporary layoffs as practicing for retirement. And I don't mind saying so myself, "I'm getting pretty good at it.
I must have been allergic to something I ate over the holidays; I swole up about 15 pounds - well 5 pounds since the last weigh-in anyway. Going to get back on track with the exercising, and eating plan. I know I have to devote more attention to strength training. I can walk and run to my heart's contentment, but unless I'm building muscle to replace the fat, my metabolism just isn't going to be working hard enough. And at my age, I need all the help I can get. It just doesn't come off like it did in the old days.
Here's a pic I took of one of the lazy felines that think they own the place.
