6:39 p.m. 206.6!  That was my weight today!  Of course I'm dehydrated, but I also got my butt kicked at my FedExGround workout last night, and I didn't eat anything after returning from the workout.  That was different than I had been eating because I had been eating protein.  Eating has seemed to help me sleep, so I've been eating; plus, I've been hungry.  Last night I didn't sleep very well, but I guess I was burning calories.  It feels good to be that weight, and I hope I can get to 200 by the end of the summer.  I'm only working at FedExGround through next week, so I hope when I end that job that I can keep my eating habits and exercise habits in check.

3:05 p.m. - I made it to Lowe's this morning to pick up some wood to make blocks for the trailer so I don't have to use those heavy landscaping blocks.  I also picked up a solid cinder block for the tongue, and I got a small took box to use as a travel box in the truck.  When I got home the Harrisons arrived, and they just left a few minutes ago.  Gigi, Brinley, Brooklyn, and I had lunch in the new camper, so that was exciting.  Now  have a about an hour before another FedExGround workout.  

Things that I NOW think about with the coronavirus. (6/17)

Colleges and universities seem to be planning to start the semester earlier and end earlier - like before Thanksgiving.  To me, this means they are anticipating the Covid situation to re-surge in the winter.  I wonder if high schools are going to follow suit.

Prayer for My Heart

Holy Spirit...

Help me have...
