Dammit Jim, I'm A Doctor Not A Nascar Driver!
Greetings Friends~
So, first things first. As you can see from the picture above, some yay-hoo backed into us at Costco. In his quest to get the perfect parking place, he paid no attention to his rearview mirror, jammed it in reverse and disregarded my horn, that was blaring. He was driving a huge 4 wheel drive Ford 350 pickup which crushed the entire front end of our car. Woowee, Mrs B knows some choice swear words. Not just one either but she can really string them together.
No one was hurt thankfully but now my frustrating odessy with Allstate begins. I won't bore you with that. I sure could use a six pack of Jumbo Jacks right now to get over my anger.
The weekend has arrived and in keeping with a New Year's resolution, I was up early...well, not early for a farmer maybe...but Chet was grumbling when I got out of bed at 7am. Early for me anyway.
I love the weekend because there are opportunities to get some many things accomplished that I normally can't do during a workday/weekday.
So today I will be running around doing my workout, shopping, getting a haircut and many other things. One challenge on weekends is eating when I should. I often get so busy that I forget it is mealtime. By the time I figure it out, my usual inclination is to skip and wait for the next regularly scheduled meal. The problems with this are many. My metabolism slows and I end up over eating at that next meal.
Another challenge on the weekend is drinking all the water that I should. Once again, I get so wrapped up in all the activities that I forget to hydrate.
It is important to enjoy the free time but hopefully it won't derail all my progress from earlier in the week.

Tips To Take Off Pounds
Sorry this is so short but having an accident put me behind. I did have a great game of racquetball last night and again today. My knees currently hate me. I think that two days in a row is too much. Next week I will give it a try, every other day. I'm going to get in my POS looking car and go get groceries. No going to the movies tonight as I do not want to drive after dark.
Don't forget your One Step at a Time workout this weekend.
Happy Trails!

Now the only reason I am logged in right now is to read the comments. So exciting, but then here is the most horrible thing. I was thinking that we should try to bottle that "acidic" language that Mrs. B uses sometimes and sell it as paint remover. I am very sad to see the crunched car. What a frickin' big ass truck moron. Hope his insurance rates go up!
Hey. I know you had a bad day Clown Boy. No post? Tomorrow is Tuesday. You always like Tuesdays better than Mondays. Even the cheese is better on Tuesday.
