Good morning. Sunny and not too cold today. Off on a hike with hubs.

Today's weight: 137.0

The mind is a funny thing, I've concluded. My Dad had a bunch of reel-to-reel tapes of his favorite music which, much more than the popular music of the day, were the soundtrack of my childhood. Suddenly last night I got a song stuck in my head: Harry Belafonte's 'Kingston Market' which I'm comfortably certain I haven't heard even one time since Dad died 30 years ago last month. Why did my brain decide to dredge it up from the depths of cold storage? I dunno, but it's earworming me still this morning.

How is your weekend going?

It has been a crazy month for me. I believe my daughter is finally on the mend after 2.5 weeks in the hospital. Not completely better but slowly getting there.

My biggest accomplishment is I am 30 days smoke free!! How I did it with all the stress, I have no idea but I am so happy I was able to stick with it.

The strangest thing during the last month is I have a new guy friend. I have been happily single (and not looking) for 5 years. We are just friends but it's really making me re-think my single status. He challenges my thought process and really makes me think about the questions he asks. I'm realizing I have become very independent but it also might be nice to have someone to share life experiences with. Hmm? We will see!

Yes Mom, the mind is a funny thing indeed.  I had sort of a similar experience just a couple of weeks ago.  I had this tune in my head and I couldn't for the life of me figure out what it was.  After a while, with the tune still playing over and over in my head, I  decided it must be some sort of a theme to a movie or a show since I couldn't seem to dig up any lyrics in the archives.  It took a while after singing it to my son and telling him it was probably a theme to a show or movie from  a long time ago, but he actually found it!  It was the theme music to Hawaii-Five-O.  Now where that came from I don't know since I don't think I ever watched that show.  I have decided that it must be some sort of a message to go to Hawaii next year when I turn 50.   You think?

164.2 today.

136 today. Must be water again. 

 

NanaDebby, congrats on a month smoke-free and your daughter's improvement, and a new gentleman friend.  It's a real feat to stop when there was so much else happening in your life.

A smidge below goal.

Or the other puzzling thing is when you can't remember someone's name and 1 day later there it is. 

Enjoy the day.

I hope this means I am on a rapid swelling downswing!

 

Weekend is going good.  MyFitnessPal's website is down for those of us in the south it appears.  Their Support gurus are trying to blame everyones ISPs and telling us nonsensical things like the "internet is clogged".  Well, call root-rooter boys!
