Eye of the Tiger

I wanted to create a blog, since everyone else is doing it...no that's not true! I want to have somewhere to write my thoughts down and have a place to share with my friends my day to day (or week to week) updates about my health and my state of mind! Also, its a place to store pictures of all the wonderful places I am going to travel to, very soon!

After summer

Here comes fall and winter and I just can't wait! For one, the weather won't be so stifling hot. Another, I get to go back to one of my favorite places on earth, KEY WEST! The pictures I posted were from last week and my jaunt to lovely San Francisco. This time, however, we decided to travel to other spots in Northern California, namely wine country and the Monterey coast. The beauty was astounding! The food, incredible as always.
Needless to say, from the pictures, it's evident I lost even more weight. 20 more to be exact, which brings the grand total to 35 shed! It was an accomplishment to say the least. Of course, being a woman, I'd still like to lose more. But, then I would have had to deny myself that sundae at Ghirardelli, and THAT was NOT happening. Not to mention the other food, wine, and dessert that took place this weekend. I did do a lot of walking (uphill) so that made me less guilty!
I enjoyed everything about my trip, even the flight out there was something of an experience!
Have to say I am enjoying traveling a WHOLE LOT!

As far as my day to day, I live between the scans and tests. I had some rough times leading up to San Fran. I was hospitalized for almost 5 days with some unknown fever and chest pain. It was probably a virus. All scans show improvment, so Navelbine has been very very good to me. I think I'll be safe from scans until after the holidays, God willing.
The dogs have been my focus. In the pictures there are 4 Min Pins. Java was the first, the LuLu. I still have Nikki and Georgie, who are mother and son. They are simply the best dogs! Most likely the will both be adopted (by separate families) this week. Then it's onto the next one! It makes me feel like I have a purpose. That's been my goal lately; to figure out what the heck I am doing here!
Until next time!
