Two in a row!

Weighed this morning. 297.5 lbs. The good news is that’s not going to be hard to beat. I think at my heaviest I was 320, and at that size small changes in diet and excessive can produce big results. I don’t have a weight loss goal yet, because I want to do this in the healthiest way possible. I’ve definitely struggled with both extremes of eating habits. Just yesterday I ate two lunches, and I don’t think I need to clarify that that isn’t a good habit. I’ve also before gone days without eating anything but black coffee and water, which I don’t even think count as eating. So, yesterday not really a success and also not really a failure. I started this, and that’s a small step in the right direction. Goal for today: go to the park and walk. I’ll take a book too. I need to finish the second half of crime and punishment, Villette, sawbones, Percy Jackson or fifty shades so I have choices. Goal for the week: I need to do some editing on me and my wife’s potential podcast. We’ll see what hap...

2019 Thoughts

I'm ready for something different. I'm still working for that same place I mentioned in the old man poop story earlier, but I've given up my position. I'm technically at the bottom of a different climbable ladder now, but I have no intention of climbing it. I'm starting back to school soon and I need to start getting myself motivated and disciplined. These are things I've struggled with for so long and I'm kind of excited that this blog thing could help motivate me BIG TIME. You can already see my name right? Why not a picture too? I feel I am overweight. I say this not to make anybody feel bad but to state my truth. I'm unhappy with it, and instead of changing my attitude about it I'm going to change me. Hopefully. My follow through is lacking in many areas. I want to write a book, and the most I've done with that is mention it in conversations and write maybe two pages worth of something I'd reread and probably scrap. So, here goes. This bl...

I don't like my job.

I work at a grocery store. I've made it up the ladder a little bit so I have extra responsibilities, and I have some people that I'm "over" in the loosest of terms. Every night we clean our own store and one of the things that I have to do is make sure the people I assigned tasks have completed those tasks. I'm sure a lot of you are familiar with this faux-management position where you have a low pay scale and lots of responsibilities you could get yelled at over. The restrooms are one of those responsibilities that you can get yelled at for and you have to make someone else do it. These are the things I hate. If you want me to make sure something is done correctly, let me do it. If you want me to delegate, give me strong people to delegate to. I digress. I assigned an old man, whom I thought was trustworthy, the restrooms and as soon as I could I went to check that they were clean. He said they were done and almost immediately upon checking I ran into an unclean ...

Start of the blog!

Okay, if you've stumbled onto this or if this blog has somehow made it big, welcome! I'm just using this as a way to jot down some notes and write about my life. Essentially it's a journal. Does this have spellcheck? ghjuyy. Yes it does. Reason why I did that? I couldn't remember if I KNEW how to spell "Essentially" or if that was too many s's. Now, a few things about me. I like the idea of writing a book. I don't know if I like writing, and I have no chance of knowing if it would be good, but I don't like living in reality. If I could take my wife and my cats and friends and family into an alternate reality, possibly any alternate reality, I would really try to get that idea some traction. What you should expect from this blog is strange stories or ideas, some real life and some I will be making up for book ideas. Thanks for giving me your time and if you comment then I hope we get to have a conversation from it! Hopefully this will be good. Thank...
