December 28 - What I'm Thankful for Today

It's another good day. I'm thankful I didn't go to the Y this morning. The roads were slick with them freezing after the snow we received yesterday. The same conditions will prevail tonight as more snow comes our way soon. I'm thankful I did four laps on the hallway this morning since I didn't go to the Y. According to my scale, I gained 20 pounds through the holiday season. I need to get that back off asap. I'm also using the foot cycle to get the exercise I need. I'm thankful I got the notifications finished this morning. It's always good seeing what you're up to in your part of the world. I'm thankful for the work I did on Where Eagles Soar. I finished the chapter I was working on. I feel I accomplished something with the mess that one is in. I also worked on New Horizons: Predators and Blue Fire. Not much to do with that one. Okay, that's my day. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

I hope for you that a lot of that is water weight. It will come off faster. I only gained 3 to 5. Yes I gave in and checked. Thankful the slow cooker missed Cutie cat when bad bad Ghost mommy cat knocked it down.

@just4him That is true. All the good stuff has salt or carbs.

@wolfgirl569 Yes, it does. I was happy to see the scale come down a bit this morning. I hope the trend continues. I don't have any junk food in the apartment right now.

Yes, most of it is water weight. With everything not good for you being loaded with salt, that's the result. I'm glad Cutie didn't get hurt when Ghost knocked down the slow cooker.

Jay and I are relating well, something I've been praying about for ten years or longer. You are faithfully sticking to your exercise plan, which benefits your entire body.

Sorry you couldn't go because of the roads...our roads are bad too. Some are even closed. Oh wow, sorry to hear that about the weight....water weight can get pretty high but is easier to get off I think.

The roads should be okay tomorrow. I hope so. Thank you. I know most of it is water weight.

I am thankful for the naps in between work today. Thankful that work for today is almost over so I am calling it a day after the 8-hour shift work. I am so happy that you were able to make 4 laps. I also gained weight and need to trim these belly fats.

Naps are good and beneficial. I hope you had a good workday. Thank you. I think this time of year is hazardous to the waistline.

The pounds go on so easily, don't they? And probably they won't be quite so easy to get off again.

Yes, they do. As I suspect they are more water weight than anything with the amount of salt I consumed in those goodies this season, I'm hoping I'll get rid of most of it without trouble. I'm sure there are a few stubborn pounds added in that will take more work. As long as I can get to the pool, it should come off easily. I need non-icy roads at 4:30 in the morning.

You are enjoying snow and winter. I am not. It was 72 degrees today. Certainly not normal weather for the end of December. We will be getting rain very late tonight into tomorrow. They have rain every day into next week. Sunday it will be finally turning colder, I hope. Hope it stays that way. I am thankful I went to the church and got it cleaned and the Christmas decorations put away until next year. Now I can stay in the next couple days while it rains. Have a blessed evening.

I know you like snow, but we only had it here for a short day. Honestly, I don’t know what I’m grateful for. Maybe because my son is healthy, but maybe he will sound selfish, but I would like more joy.

@just4him Yes, it's been a long time, but I've been thinking about all of you. I often wanted to share everything that happens to me here, but there are a lot of bad things and I realized that it would be too much negativity, so I gave up.
