Ride On

Thursday was BEAUTIFUL outside. I got my motorcycle out and rode all day. It was pretty cool at 9 AM but but lunch it had warmed up quite a bit and was a great day for riding.

There is a sense of freedom on the bike that is really unequaled, even in my Jeep with the top off. I am really looking forward to regular warmer weather so that I can ride more often. It certainly will help save on gas.

Until next time,
Marc

Better Today


It has been a very roller coaster week or so for me. There has been lots of turmoil on several fronts in my life. My tendancy when life gets stressful is to want to turn to my comfort foods. I have done that some. However, I am so thankful for my Lap-Band because while I do make poor choices on occasion, I have a tool that keeps me in check and allows me to start over fresh the next day. So far, a few bad choices have not led to self sabotage - which certainly was my pattern over the past numerous diet attempts.

On a good note - we adopted a new dog this weekend. His name is Jackson Rocolicious Gamble I. We call him "Jack" for short. I hope you enjoy his picture.

Depressed

I'd like to think it is just the weather that has got me down. I know better. Life is too busy. I owe too much money. My pastor and friend is leaving. My wife's boss has no understanding of grace. Today, I feel trapped.

Boy, could I use some ice cream. Old habits die hard.
