06/07/2009: ""In The Days Of Our Youth I Was Taught What It Means To Be A Man""

It's been quite a while since I've had something to say. It's not because nothing has been happening in my life, I'm still losing weight, down to 140 but still having those guilt trips when I buy crap at the store. I keep telling myself that I deserved that pint of ice cream, or the bag of licorice, or that rib steak, and the dark chocolate covered almonds, because I've been so good, but the fact remains that it just takes longer to get the weight off every time I indulge. Although my basketball size belly has turned into a soccer ball size, my goal is to get it down to a softball size. The fatty deposit that is on my upper arm seems to be getting smaller, it's actually a softball size now so I'm hoping for it to disappear. It's just so weird to have that lump a fat on my arm.
I've also been working some very long hours because we are having great weather that is perfect for the fast growing lawns. I'll be glad when it slows down.
Now that I've decided that I don't have to be the one to save my children from those mundane jobs the rest of their lives, I've been trying to gear myself for the other fork in the road, wherever that takes me. I know the one place that I really love to be is with the horses on those 49 acres. I have a hard time keeping away from there, especially when I should be working but one thing I know for sure is the work will be waiting for me when I get around to doing it because no one else wants to do it. The other thing I know for sure is Let's All Dance!
