Happy New Year

I started the new year off by going to my mother in law's house this morning and Installed the under the cabinet radio that we got her for Christmas. After we got the old one down (complete with cassette player) it took me all of 10 mins to install. I was able to use the new craftsman drill I got on Black Friday. After that we went home and I installed a new door knob on our pantry that we bought about 2 weeks ago. Keeping the momentum I told Sheila to go to Home Depot and get that Ceiling fan that we spotted right before Christmas. I told her while she was gone I would get the old fan down and tonight we would have that new fan up. So I did just that. Start to finish I did the whole job in 1 hour and 5 mins. I really impressed myself today. 5 years ago I would not have even attempted to pick up a screw driver. Well unless I was handing it off to someone.

I have not mentioned my constant struggle with my weight issue's lately. I've tried to avoid talking so much about it, but I will say that I have been following the doctors orders and I have gained 7 lbs so far. I still have 5 more to go and I will get there. It's been hard to not run to my bike and ride like a crazy man when i see the scale go up. But I think 7 lbs is a major accomplishment on my part and I thnik that I might be on the right track now.

Blessings till I post again.
