Well, I am sure you all have been checking in every 10 minutes all day to see when Superbob has posted a new Staying the Course thread (or maybe not). Sorry, I could say the dog ate my homework, but the sun fried my brain would be more like it. The heat is deadly today. Oh for some nice showers to cool things down -- but those seem to happen only wherever 'my' Cardinals are playing baseball.
I have been riding the exercise bike and working out in the community pool some -- entirely too hot any time of the day to walk good ol' Sadie. When she goes outside to do her business, she often stumbles nowadays -- breaks my heart, But she still has her joy of life -- wants to play every night after dinner time. Tries to keep up with Dasher the Wonder Dawg, the 5-year-old lab (Sadie is working on 15)....She's amazing. I hope when fall weather returns, we can have some more good walks together.
My eating hasn't been too terrible this week, though I was just at CVS and stumbled upon a can of whole cashews on sale for 3 bucks and change. I've started eating them and that means I can't stop eating them. No willpower when it comes to cashews or potato chips. Finally I confiscated them from myself and put the can high up in the cabinet hoping to forget it's there. At least for a while. And I will try to cut back on supper calories to compensate for some of my cashew eating.
Okay, what's going on with all of our merry gang? Any new exercise routines or nutritional plans or excursions or anything you'd like to share?
Love to hear from you all --- it's a great day in South Carolina!
