A leisurely walk

After writing the other day — I had a hankering to write again.  I missed you all.  I am always amazed at how many of you still follow along There is something about writing in this blog that makes me feel motivated.  I had not gone outdoors for any activity in a week, before writing…

Spiraling

I am Spiraling, but not out of control.  I am in a whirlwind of amazing things and yet … I sit on my bed puzzling about what to write in my diary.  Do I try and formulate a way to say things in a different way–about my same subject of morbid obesity?  I’ve had numerous…

Hopeful …

Yesterday started slow, but picked up steam.  I felt like going shopping.  So I went!  That may seem like a small thing for me to be celebrating, but that hasn’t happened in over a year.  This Is Huge! We changed/upped my thyroid meds yet again over the past two weeks. I have to go up…

Cheesy Rueben Soup

Sounds STRANGE, but it truly was delish!  I will share my version of the recipe that I made.  I take recipes as starting places.  The original recipe called for Corned beef only.  I like fresh sliced meat from the deli.  And, yes I am slightly a snob and prefer Boars Head, because they don’t put…
