Signs of Loss

     Hit 245 this morning. That's 50 pounds less than when I retired. Thinking about shaving the beard to see if my extra chin has taken a vacation. Looking forward to the look on my doctor's face when I see him next. I'm grateful for the lighter load and wondering how much more I should lose. Getting a handle on my food issues has been game changer and that's pretty much what got me here. Looking forward to removing a few more pounds then keeping them off. Who knows? Smoking may be next.   

Signs that I've Gone for a While

     My posts become infrequent when I'm gone but you should know that "gone" can have several different meanings for me sometimes they add up.                           

    There's gone as in "vacation" gone. Maybe to go fishing somewhere else for a week or so or visit the grandkids, leaving the computer behind.

    Then there's the gone that happens when your brain has too much input and stalls out for a while. Floods, fires, car accidents, hospitalizations and other natural/unnatural acts of God can bring this on quite rapidly.  This debilitating type of gone can last days, weeks or even months depending on what type of "disaster", personal or otherwise, you've experienced.

    Lastly there's the gone that happens when a relationship ends or the "last straw" has been reached. Trust has died a senseless death and lovers/friends part causing more time away. 

    Sorry folks. Recent events have soured the well and my keyboard needs a bath. Later.

    

More Signs?

     It's really chapping my hide that Trump is still an unresolved issue in America. Put that piece of human excrement where he belongs, in prison. Along with all his loyal followers who showed that loyalty January 6th. He's STILL lying about the 2020 election outcome. Worlds worst loser by any metric you wish to use.

    In other news, it's about time to hit the coast again. The temperatures have finally come down to the 80s & 90s but we're still headed for cooler pastures soon. That's all for now.
