What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
Can't help with the adrenalin junkie explanation - I would NEVER jump out of a perfectly good plane! I am up for a good hike and wish I could do more, but it will come. I also mentioned to my hubby a few weeks ago that I really want to go back to Universal Studios to ride all of the rides that I couldn't ride before. Question - anyone else get scanned every time they go through security??? I'm guessing that it's the staples.
I am happy with the heat for now too. I was always the one with the a/c on arctic and now I am cold all of the time. I have to defend the a/c setting at home on a daily basis and I run around with a jacket all day. Sometimes even jump in a hot bathtub to warm up.

On our honeymoon in Mexico we went 4-wheeling, jet skiing and deep sea fishing in crazy rough seas. I cried during every single one of those activities. LOL My husband knew better than to even ask me if I wanted to go parasailing. He went by himself and I sat on the beach.
While white water rafting, they would stop and have "activities" in the water. One was a "slide" made of rock. I did that one. Then they had a 12' cliff you could jump off of. I DID IT!!! I never in my wildest dreams thought I would do that, its NOT my thing! I dont know what came over me!? I went first and everything.
Then they had like this 20' cliff, NOPE NOPE NOPE, I am ALL SET Mr. White water instructor guy
I used to want to skydive... not anymore, I cherish my bones in one piece. :) We even have a skydiving place about 30 minutes from me... ack! In my early 20's I did parasailing in Acapulco... I was in a panic and did exactly what they told me not to do... somewhere there is a pic of me being dragged down the beach with these Mexican men chasing me and trying to catch me with a giant parachute attached to me... LOL... my sister took the pic :)

Have been dancing around the same numbers for a couple of weeks, so trying to up the protein today and limit the carbs....

Here's to a great Wednesday!
Good morning!
I love(d) downhill skiing and white water rafting in my early 20's. My original knee injuries were due to those activities - and my extreme weight certainly finished the job of ruining those joints. When I am light enough to fit and strong enough to get in and out, I am going to kayak - on quiet lakes and streams. (That's a goal for this summer actually!) And though my knees may or may not be able to handle downhill skiing next winter, I will get out there and do something on the slopes! Even if it's tubing, I will get out there! Its been 15 years since I last could do anything winter-sports related, and I can't wait. Also, I am lead singer in a classic rock band - and performing is another major adrenaline rush! we are all my age and older, and we perform about once a month in pubs and events near our homes.
I never thought of myself as an adrenaline junkie but... I guess I am to a certain extent!

Hazy, hot and humid here in southern NY. It's like August weather here, as well. Still working from home, so I am going to try to make the best of it. I hope none of you, nor your families, are affected by the terrible flooding in Texas.
I have another big donation batch for Salvation Army. They know me now!!! And then I plan to put some stuff up on eBay, a suit and a few really nice ****tail dresses. Hopefully this will help me raise some money for some new clothes when I need them next!
Have a great day.
