While I’m Growing Older, Sexier, and Skinnier…

I’m also paying attention to how mortal I am. I cannot die from disease or anything else until I have my taxes done, my house in order, and all the good articles torn out of all the magazines I have waiting to be read (from my mouth to God’s ear with a “please” attached).
I’m really [...]

A Day of BBQ And Potato Salad

At our house 3-day weekends are cause for BBQ’s and/or picnics. When my sister and I were kids, it was usually a day of some big picnic for some organization my folks belonged to. When my sister and I got out on our own and had kids, we used to get Ma and all get [...]

I had pretty much forgotten how much I hate hot (90 to 100 degrees) weather when I’m overweight. I’ve gotten [...]

I’ve Been MIA Thanks to Exercise…

Yep. I finally joined a challenge on one of the diet sites. I thought “okay. 30 days. I can do this.”
There’s a new workout routine every day. It’s all laid out for me. No boredom. The “exercise queen” that did the workout videos was actually quite good. They’re considered “medium impact”. Little did I know [...]

What You Should Know About Binge Eating

I’m writing about this today as I find myself “binge eating” sort of like an alcoholic does “binge drinking”.  Although I wouldn’t call it a “disorder” yet, it got me thinking.
Binge eating disorder is a very serious condition that is affecting many people and will continue to do so until we are all more educated [...]
