Happy New Year!

Happy 2024! Let it be a good, fun one, with good election outcomes and democracy intact at the end!

Three things for a start to the year:

-- I gained 11 lbs over the holidays. FML. About 1lb/day. Sigh. But hopefully back on track. I tried. There was just too much food in the house. I don't think it was the meals or the desserts, but just the overwhelming amount of snacks all over the place.

-- I did 2024m on the erg this morning. I'm not going to make a habit of it, but eh, I'm glad I did it. I've got sore shoulders from yesterday, but not a sore lower body, so that does tell me I do need to get my act together to do some upper body work this year!

-- Perry just got exposed to Covid. Sigh. But yesterday he and I made beignets for dessert. They worked out pretty well, if I do say so myself. Won't be an 'often' but it's nice to have that as an accomplishment. We had muffuletta and jambalaya for dinner, so this kept it NOLA themed!

I found the secret to losing weight over the holidays. We all (my parents included) got Covid for Christmas. I have lost my senses of smell and taste. So there go 2/3 of the reasons to eat. So I know I need to eat, but nothing sounds good. Ugh.

Oh no, I am so sorry! I hope everyone is on the mend! I mean, I know the drill after our Covid-vacation (though Perry and I escaped, LOL). Sigh.

Take care!

Also, if you're bored and stuck at home, I can send you a Word or Kindle version of my novel... (See me realizing I might have a captive audience, LOL). 🤣🤣🤣
