If you are planning on having, um, 'relations' with your garden furniture, drag it inside the house first.
(I could barely restrain my laughter at this. Make sure you watch the video. It will give you a mind picture difficult to forget.)
(Okay, this was taken a year ago, but I am essentially at the same weight...maybe a couple pounds under)
Just got a call from my doctor's office. Cholesterol is up too.
Yep. Lifestyle change is definitely in order.
Ummm, yeah. Went to the doctor yesterday. Basically a yearly checkup, fasting bloodwork, yearly 'female' stuff, the yearly weight lecture, etc. Also, my hip hurts like hell. Got a reinforcement on the yearly weight lecture (losing weight will help your joints, yeah, yeah). Blood pressure was high in the office. Okay, maybe some white coat syndrome, maybe some of the chicken adobo I had for dinner last night (1 CUP of soy sauce...umm, yeah). Was not so high at home last night.
Anyway, I am going to work on my weight. Will probably join Weight Watchers again. Probably online since I don't have a freakin' car and am so bloody immobile. I wonder if I can get a WW at work started here. This is a GIANT company and they seem to emphasize health stuff.
Sorry. I am such an anal sob. Someone on one of my lists wished everyone on the list a 'Happy Easter and spring solstice."
Can anyone say 'fingernails on a blackboard?'
Erg...should I send a correction? I can be civil...I really can, but it 
really bugs me to see that kind of semi-educated crap. I just want to reach through the computer, grab her around the throat and say, "It's vernal (spring) equinox, you little moron. There is no such thing as a spring solstice."
This is a precise astronomical term. It has a specific scientific meaning. It is not just some little throw-off. If you don't know science, don't pretend you do.
I hate to see ignorance perpetuated.
Good news:
Not so Good news:
B has to get a grip on reality and stop writing giant checks behind my back (to try to pay off our mortgage). Fortunately the loan is in my name and the loan officer called me to ask about it (I told her to shred the check).
Sometimes I just want to take a club...
...not a tsunami. The preceeding picture is still worth an 'oh shit' moment, but it isn't a tsunami. It is a dust storm.
(I was kind of suspicious but just didn't check on snopes until this morning...)
Since no one really wants to read about my sore throat and snot, I will offer this picture simply for the "oh, shit" effect.
Heh. Long time, no post.
What is it about laughing babies? If this don't make you smile, then you must be dead.
