dog days of summer

A new dog, "Patrick" at the Old Folks Home.

Scratch that - I meant "Canine Companion."

He loves is new "job."

But the first week someone ran over his little (big) foot

with a wheelchair. So now he's a little shy.

Took the place of the old one, who died last week.

Same breed, younger, more cuter.

I think he likes me!

We're taking it slow this time.... 

Last time, we jumped right in.

Easy does it, eh?

Sugarless deLite has sugar free frozen yogurt. 

If anyone comes to Dallas to visit,

I would take them here.

World-Class Vanilla and Toffee Coffee flavoured yum.

5 grams "effective" (net) carbs per small cup.

No cravings yet, so it's all good!

Also scored these "Drenchers"

Fit N Lean Fruit Juice Beverage.

4 grams carb per bottle - 2 grams per serving.

Ah, the sights and sounds of the big bad city!

I can get around almost anywhere -

But get anxious out in the middle of nowhere.

Go figure! Good feedback, though.

I think I need to get to know myself - 

perhaps a little better. 

Not just the visual/physical - the heavy me - the lighter me.

I'm still pleasantly surprised when I do well.

And get to remind myself that I can do hard things.

*Dana's quote!*

They have a great idea!

Take one of these camping to the Grand Canyon.

Bring your bike and meet me there!

Home delivery, puppy style

Don't Ask, Don't Tell

An awesome salad: bagged mixed lettuce,

blackberries, walnuts, canned chicken (chilled)

and Cherry Cheddar Cheese.

Ranch and French Dressing.

Food tastes better when you are really really hungry!

Wait for it!

..........................................................................

Monster w/protein

Water, coffee w/ cream x 2

Atkins bar, sf frozen yogurt

Salad on a Platter - ain't no little saucer.

I am "on call" this weekend, which is way cool.

Just to say it is cool. "Sorry - can't - I'm on call!"

Oh, and no more nightmares about SpongeBob!

Die, creature, die! Yet he just kept advancing.

Bad dreams have no logic - what would he want me for?

When you think about them, there is nothing to fear.

From The Far Side:

Hunger, heat, and deprivation can have a strong downward pull.

So far, though, I still haven't plotted against myself -

For a few weeks, now! And no (constant) headache for weeks, as well!

Yay! And my life circumstances haven't really changed.

I'm just more able to handle it without needing a "prop."

I hope you are doing something good for yourself this weekend!
