Good Bye 2018 Soon

I have to say that I will be glad to say good-bye to this last year. It has not been a good one for me physically. I fell in February and cracked my head open, had to go to the Emergency Room and felt like I was losing my mind.

And about 6 moths later, just when I was getting my memory back, I fell backwards while walking Riley and cracked my noggin again. Luckily, I fell into the grass and did not break anything. But my neighbors called the Fire Department to get me up. Embarrassing, oh, yes, but the fireman was so cute. And he held me pretty tight as he walked me back to my apartment. To be held by a good looking man was nice -it had been a while but I vowed not to do it again.

​The rest of the year managed to go by without that kind of trauma. I got Riley this year (my soon to be 10 year old Yorkie,). He is so sweet and reminds me of Puddin', my Yorkie from long ago. I have not returned to a social life, except here at the apartment complex, And after looking at the pictures of me, I have decided that weight loss and the gym must be part of my New Year's resolutions.

​"Never have I ever" seems appropriate here. The only time in my adult life that I have been this large is when I was going through a divorce and the subsequent depression. Unfortunately that young self that did not eat when depressed has gone away. Now I "stuff."

​That must stop and riding a bike and lifting a few weights is not that hard. I think I will buy some light weights to have in the apartment. We have a gym, but for some reason I cannot make myself go there. I also have a gym membership to a great real gym. So I will go there and start to build up again - At least I hope I will.

​All in all I plan on making 2019 a better year than 2018. I will keep the good friends I have made and try to make some new ones.. I plan to go out and experience life a little more. There are museums to visit, places close by to travel to, and of course, there is the beach with its beautiful Gulf of Mexico. I have not been beachcombing in  a while. It always wipes away strife and troubles.

​I have a plan for 2019 and I am ready to start.
