Easily distracted by shiny things
And The One Where We Set Out On A Gaming Adventure I was astounded when I checked the date on my previous post! So much has happened, and, as usual, that’s my weak excuse for not writing sooner. Let’s start with the bad news, or at least, the things that were not so fun. First …

I have been intermittent fasting for a few years now, off and on. I would fall off the wagon, gain weight, and get back on for a while. I tried, with reasonable success, to be strict, but I have to admit I would slack off a bit – I blame my husband! – and when …

I’ve been thinking a lot about life, about death, about the circle of things. I’ve …
Read More MusingsSo, people – there it is. Goal weight. Or should I say _initial_ goal weight (I still want to lose a little more, but this was my first goal to reach, to keep me motivated) I wasn’t expecting it, as I’ve been feeling a bit meh the last few days (headache, etc) but still eating …
Read More And there it isMy friend Steph posted this article about a topic that’s quite inflammatory and divisive and seems to be intensely debated over the last year or so.
