Randall?



It's a great feeling, isn't it? I joined Weight Watchers at the
beginning of January and have lost 35 pounds so far, but I had a lot
more weight to lose than you. Still, it's amazing how much better I
already feel and look, and people are definitely noticing. I don't do
exercise. Never have, never will. I see no point in doing something
you really hate. :-) Wayne Boatwright @¿@¬ _____________________

m-i-l lived to 91 in good health (mind failure though last couple of
years) until she fell to the floor one morning, heart attack. She
detested exercise and doctors.

When it's my time to go, I hope it's quick like that. I pray that I don't
ever have a lingering illness.

If f-i-l suggested she go to a doctor
for something, she was in a snit for a long while. When I talked about
exercising, she only smiled. FIL wears regularly over the past 10
years a t-shirt (of 5 he bought) which says, "Walk for life," and never
walked a day in his life until about 3 months ago (80 and has survived
his 2 cancer bouts), so he's now walking around the apartments every now
and then with cane or walker.

It's amazing what some people can go through and just keep on going. Good
for him!

Congratulations on your 35#. Quite a feat! It won't be long (another
9 years) until you'll be the magic 70 where "they" say it doesn't matter
a twit (or is that whit/wit) whether you exercise or not.

Thank you! I think I'll adopt that nine years earlier. :-)

Lunch today: Portuguese-style Alaska Cod recipe from internet and rice.
I seem to recall you don't like cod? Testing out the new electric
skillet. Dee Dee

I like it fine if it's coated and fried. :-) But, then, that's true for
most fish. A new catfish restaurant opened quite near us and their fried
catfish is the best I've had outside of a Southern fish camp.
