DairyKing's Journal, 13 August 2013

Hello, My Fellow FS Warriors. It looks like most of you have been doing very well with your eating plans and exercise; I have not. I have remained very active, working on projects, and making sure I could knock out a few pushups here and there, but I just haven't been motivated to get athletic. What usually happens is that I get to the point where I fall into bad habits, my pants get too tight, and I say, "Whoa, enough is enough!" I am there again. Going to have to air up the tires in the bicycle, bust the dust off the treadmill, and break out the smaller dinner plates. During my absence, I have:
1. Built a Redneck indoor shooting range in the gymnasium.
2. Finished off the kid's playground with the rubber nuggets.
3. Built a containment fence and gate in the backyard (so I could move the tractors in and out without the dogs escaping.
4. Did some internal changes to the mufflers on one of the motorcycles so it sounds like a Harley instead of a Hoover.
5. Installed an outdoor sump pump so the water does not build up and have a chance to stand against the brick building during heavy rains.
6. Built additional kitchen base cabinets for DW's appliance counter.
7. Got the toilets and drains working in the gymnasium.

Also, DW had surgery for a hammertoe, and she's been darn near incapacitated for a month (better now). Wrapped her toe every night and splinted it against the other.

It's been quite a summer so far. But other than that, not much happening with me. How about you guys?

You have had a busy summer and I have too in the garden. I did laugh at your #4. You tickled my funny bone with that one. I gained weight, too, after I did all the garden projects and moved back indoors when the bugs started biting. I am haven't been very successful so far. I just started a new thing ... eating more calories but eating less carbs. Someone has to experiment. LOL!

Hi DK. Ive thought about you several times and wondered how you were. Sounds like you've kept yourself very busy as usual. I hope DW gets up and feeling better. I moved yet again, third time in a little over a year, and I am living in CA. Im not doing very well weight wise myself :). Nice to hear from you.

So very good to hear from you! I'd scold you for misbehaving except I've done the same myself. At least you have a long list of things you've accomplished in your absence.

Wow DK! What a list of accomplishments. I am in awe. Summer has been quiet here. Did a little travelling. Mostly trying to stay cool, hang with my son home from college and of course lose a few pounds (always). Happy to see you back on. :)

Hey DK - I think there's something to this... we fall away, stay off FS, and gain... hmmm... let's all agree not to do this anymore! Working my way down as well, after the death of my Mom... just didn't care. Not a good mental place to be. But I am stronger, and happier, and moving forward now. Great to see you back. How is DW doing? I've thought of you and her many times... still keeping her in my prayers.
