Weight Versus Calendar

We had made the decision a couple weeks ago to not worry about dieting until after the Christmas holiday. That's probably what most overweight people do that have weight to lose and still want to enjoy the festive season. It's a race to the end of the year. Between the fruitcake, cookies and eggnog, not to mention other drinks and sweets, we're building to a not too impressive starting point for dieting. We may be borderline candidates for the "Biggest Loser" show. Just kidding, but we need to apply the brakes before it gets out of control. The fact that Josie starts working today probably helps with the required slowdown on eats and drinks.

Our decorations are now at the point where we declared the job complete. We picked up another couple of small items yesterday and a timer for the outside lights, so we are officially done. We did a better job decorating the inside of our rig than the outside. That's probably the norm anyway. Josie did a great job on the inside decorations as they set the tone for the entire holiday season.

As mentioned, Josie begins working today at 9 AM in the design center of Phoenix Flower Shops at the Sun City location off of Union Hills Rd. It is about a 15 minute drive from here, and should work out fine without any freeway driving required. That means I will buckle down and try to get some things done here while she works. There are some projects that I have been putting off for some time. The main one being the completion of the shredding that we started earlier this year and never finished. The boxes were moved from our storage units and are waiting for me in the shed outside. There are also some repairs that have been put on hold that aren't critical, but have caused some inconvenience. For the most part though, the rig is in good shape.

It's time to get some breakfast and to make sure that Josie gets off to a good start today. We should have some info tomorrow on the way things go for her today...
