Trying To Get Better

I'll update yesterdays post, my wife is doing better and felt well enough to do her volunteer work at the Thrift Store. Our handyman Dell came over and painted the entire fasciae around the house in about 5 hours. We'll have him back to do the underneath in the next few weeks. The rain gutter will be installed on Monday the 14th.

I notice when I reread my posts that I have added helping words and sentences that are not necessary, I don't always catch these mistakes no matter how many times I review my work. I'm sorry if my post are not a literary work of art but I'm who I am and try my best. I apologize for any sloppy work!

I took a sleep pill last night, actually I cut all my pills in half so I don't feel drowsy all day. I crashed round 7:30 and slept till 4:45. It still takes me awhile to wake up and start the day. The extra sleep felt wonderful.

When I finish this post, I'm going to go ride the bike for an hour. I not sure what is the best way to keep track of my weight. My wife weighs in once a week, I've been weighing everyday and I go up and down so it's hard to tell how well I'm doing. I may change my ways pretty soon.

I need to do a better job of watching what I eat. I've been cutting down on quantity but I still snack some and I can't help myself. My wife made Cowboy Caviar, it's delicious and healthy till you get the chips to scoop it out with.

My comfort food is Ritz crackers and peanut butter, this has been a stable for years. I add jelly when I want to make it special! I can eat Peanut Butter by the spoonful and do sometimes.
