GlennM's Journal, 03 February 2009

Doing well. Having bit of stomach issues so induction will wait till that is resolved. I may up my goal weight to 192, I was almost there in November, ounces away. I'm thin now at 198, even 200 is thin at my height, the scale at the V.A. is much heavier I know it's wrong as the one I have is level with those of friends. The dog is wonderful, and very sweet and always nearby me. Tomorrow she gets groomed and licensed. She loves walks and going out and even tapped my coat on the couch when I put my shoes on today! My arthritis flared up badly today in my lower back and was painful and I'm trying not to focus on any pain I'm having - lots of back spasms today too, the weather was cold, damp and snowy. I WILL join a gym once the taxes come back and get stuff for my apartment like pictures and file cabinets - my sister is painting the tables soon. The dog is definitely a keeper... :)

I LOVE LOVE LOVE how the puppy is keeping you focused on the positive! You keep coming back to him when you start to go a wee bit negative. It is simply thrilling to watch your thoughts! Yay you!

I am so glad you have this dog, you have really bonded with her. Wish the aches and pains were better, it makes it harder to exercise but walking is so good for you, good for the back, and you are doing that. I hope you are feeling better tomorrow.

Yes - I forgot how much a pet could affect one's emotions for the better. So many friends feel burdened by their pets. This dog and I are perfect for each other. She is not a burden. Already she and I are bonding well. She is such a happy dog. I did have a cat I felt close to as a boy, and a dog too, but that dog wasn't housebroken and Toto is. She is filling an empty place that has been in my life too long. A girlfriend may come soon, or dating but everyone is right this dog's love is unconditional...
