Dec. 2009

I've been reading other blogs and thought I should blog again. It's been a long time. I'm getting into the Christmas Spirit, lately. I took a short trip to Lancaster, Pa with my Mom and Aunt and we had a good time. We saw 2 Christmas shows and visited several stores and restaurants. It was very nice and peaceful there. Then I started to listen to Christmas music, I found some small speakers and took them to work. Now I can listen to music at work. I use my XM radio. I can record music and then play it at work since there is no reception in the hospital. I had used headphones before but didn't really like using them. I have 3 days off this weekend. I want to do some other Christmas things. I want to put up the tree and some decorations. I always have a long list of stuff to do but never enough time to do it all.
I have been on a diet for the last 2 months and I'm doing really good on it. I feel good and hope to continue until I'm at a good weight for my height. I'm using Medifast and it is really easy to take my meals to work. I eat 5 medifast meals and one lean green meal. The lean green is a protein and 3 vegetables. I do miss some foods thought but when I reach the weight I want to be, I will be able to transition into eating other foods.
We are getting a pool table for Christmas. I mentioned it to Crosby and Ian and within a few days they had gone and picked one out. It will be coming next week. We've already rearranged the furniture in the basement. I think it will be fun for all of us.
Last weekend Crosby cut down many more trees around the house. He said he didn't want them to fall on the house. He and several people from his work just cut them down but not up, so there are many trees laying in the woods.
