Well... another Wednesday night has come, just flying on by. Very little to report on other than I hope this video clip of Wendy turned out. I'm gonna try. I gained a half a pound this week, still feels like Groundhog Day, some late hours at the office, and just getting along. Stacie asked if she could have her picture with me to show how cold I keep the house to try and save a few pennies, can't quite get synchronized here on all that... now that it's winter, I see family turning off lights and turning up the thermostat, summertime saw lights always on and the thermo way down. Forgot to wish my sister Diane a Happy Birthday Monday...yep I've got a little sister who's 47... what's that do for me? Lots of activities coming up soon, church Christmas dinner this week, Heather McKee home from Taiwan tomorrow, school concerts, etc.... I'll have some good pictures for next week. Not really feelin' too much of it all tonight....

ROUTINE: Still diligent at the gym, but little attention to the diet. My gym buddy Harold at work is talking me into stepping up the weights workout. I've done some, but he's going after it strong. I think I need to do that so I'll be taken seriously... here's a conversation I had with a lady at church the other day. I was asked to be at the church, there was a situation where there was a remote chance of a little trouble, I was asked to show up just to help check on things. So, I get there and happened to be sampling the sampler platter in the kitchen:

Sister WS: Hey Brian, nice to see you... hey I hear there was some muscle supposed to stop by to check on things...

Me: ('lil smokie in my mouth on a toothpick back in the kitchen).... yeah, that's me... I's just asked to stop by to take a look...

Sister WS: (straight as straight-faced can be).... uh huh,.... no really, do you know who's supposed to stop by?

There it is.... can't even pass for someone who might be able to help out in the event..... time to join Harold in some of that heavy lifting.

ON THE BIKE: Gail is picking up the encouragement on this...even offered to go out with me and do some shopping for it... can't figure that all out, but will go with it.

ODDS N' ENDS: Christmas is getting here and that is nice..... went to a concert with the Hamners and friends where David played the clarinet....


Wendy wants me to quit talking about it, but her piano playing has lifted our spirits, been very very nice to hear. We'll have more of it throughout the season....., be sure to listen past the 00:27 mark... I just heard it, I really know now that we need a new camera, this one just doesn't cut it.



No FAQs this week.... still thinking on an exit strategy for the blog and program, not to decide right now.

'Til next week. Brian
