Day 15

I usually write my daily update at days end but not today.  Why?  Well I want to get on with it.  My weekend was good (and bad).  Good because it was pretty tame and not much happened.  Oh, well I did lose my wallet.  That sucked but everything was replaceable.  The “bad” part would fall in the realm of my diet and lack of exercise.

Diet took a hit because 1) Still sulking about my hurt shoulder a tad.  2) I am now 100% convinced that diet drinks DO increase our need/urge for sweets or at least compensation for calories which our bodies were thought to have had.  A couple of weeks ago in a coupon deal we got 5 12-packs of diet soda for something like 2 dollars.  Hell of a deal!  At least it wasn’t regular soda?  Anyhow, if anyone recalls, several months ago I went on a diet drink exodus.  It worked quite well and I felt quite well.  I suppose I need to do that again.  3) It was my birthday, so I figured “what the hell!”.

Exercise: next to none.

With that said, my youngest fell asleep on me 5 times on Saturday.  Even when she couldn’t get him to nap.  I’d take him, bounce him in my lap and a few minutes later he’s snoozing.  He slept right through my home theater stereo blasting 7.5 million pounds of space shuttle thrust into the room.  That’s skill!  Ah what a great launch.  They never get old.  It takes a couple of seconds for that bull to get rolling but after that, it hauls ass!

Ok, well all that said, I’m starting again, here on day 15 as a 30 year old man.  Today is the first day of the rest of my life.
