I do too. They’re losing weight, and really working at it, and this trip is their reward for the weight loss and getting in shape. They’ve gone Keto and are going to the gym three times a week. I’m SO happy to hear that, because of FS’s diabetes.
Working in transportation in Vegas, I used to schedule rides for disabled people. I can’t even tell you how many I came across on a weekly basis who were diabetic and had lost one or both legs, gone blind and/or had heart problems because they didn’t take care of themselves.
I could see my FS going down that same road, and it was super scary. So this is great. If they stick to their diet and exercise program on their trip and when they come back, I’ll consider it a win!
I’ve been trying to read more and get away from playing mahjong in the evenings. I’ve dividing my reading between “Tent Life In Siberia,” and “Back to the Sources.” The latter is an explanation of the Jewish texts, aka, the Torah. I suspect it will throw a whole ne light on the Old Testament when we begin to study it again in 2022.
The idea is just to get away from so much electronics.
I would like to avoid watching television in the evenings. Going to bed with a book makes it more likely that I’ll sleep!
