Got up this morning and did not feel any older than I did when I went to bed. How great is that! I had to get ready to go to work this morning…so made the coffee and took a shower and got ready. The plan was to pull out about 6:00 and sure nuff we did just that. It is still cold here so we had to ready the house for cold temps while we were gone. Much the same as you stix and brix you have to get everything in order so it does not freeze up before you get back.
We arrived in Tyler and started our project which did not take too long. We headed on to Longview…Hallsville and finally Marshall Texas were we finished out the day. From there we went to Shreveport got our motel room and went to eat with all the gang. We ate at the Cracker Barrel and was it good. We all discussed our diets and how well they were working out. You really believe that I know.
I have to lose 30 pounds no ifs…ands…or buts about it. I have to shed this weight and get to where I can tie my shoes and see them while standing. I have a long row to hoe but I know I can do it. I quit smoking years ago so I know I can do it if I just give it a try.
Yes this is my Birthday and I had all but one child call me today. I wont mention which child did not call me. I really had forgotten it was my birthday until Sherri reminded me on the way the Tyler. I don’t celebrate birthdays any more…I just put it behind me and think young. I thank the Lord every birthday for letting me live this long. It has been a wonderful life and even if it was taken from me tomorrow I would have to say that it was a great trip with lots of memories…

Happy Birthday Joe! And good luck with the 30 pound thing. If you are successful you will have to blog about how its done, so all us other folks that can't tie our shoes have some idea how to go about it. LOL
Happy Birthday, Speedy! Those casino buffets are going to take a big hit if you have to lose 30lbs!
Happy Birthday Joe!
Let me know how the diet works out. I'm in the same boat. I suspect I could lose a little by cutting out the beer but I don't want to get too drastic.
