Gardening since 1944
I completed a graduate degree in History May 2012 at age 70. Before I retired, I was the manager of an economics group in a large corporation until 1989. After that. I worked for the Census Bureau and retired permanently in 2006.
When I am not reading, I am gardening.

Leaf turning
* I rejoined WW which helped me lose weight years ago I don’t overeat so the “dieting” will be easy from the standpoint of hunger, but difficult because I hate to meal plan. I used to like to cook, maybe I will do more of that now that I am not always cracking a book. (I would rather be reading.)
Must be the sun! Whatever the reason, best wishes for it all.
This sounds like it’s going in the direction of a 101 list…
Snap. I take singular too. It’s brilliant!
It just might be the beginning of a 101 list, if I can figure out how to start one.
Well, the leaves on the plants in the pictured pot are sure plentiful and colorful — emblematic of those you’re turning over, around, or whatever, I guess. Sounds ambitious. I need to be more active, too. Guess I’ll recommit myself since so much of this get up and go seems to be going around as I visit various bloggers. Time to post that article about it all that I wrote a few years ago when I thought I was getting started, then I’ll have to go through with it all — maybe.
My get up and go has got up and went most days. Don’t know what got into me lately. I think it is the new shoes.
I shall have to follow your example because my exercising has hit an all time low since returning from Japan. I’ll try my best to do better, but the chair keeps calling me.
You are a better example to me I think.
That sure is a pile of leaves. Sounds like me at New Years. I wish you better luck.
I think WW does work because of the planning. I keeps you from that deadly self conversation, “What am I hungry for?”
It all SOUNDS good, but how many of these plans will you carry out? Why not start with a manageable single item plan and work from there?
I must do the same, start exercising, I mean, but it’s still raining and I simply don’t feel like getting soaked for longer than the quick 20 mins. the dog gets to go out.
Well, I have rejoined weight watchers and we walked two days in a row. Now I am on the computer and David is lying crashed in his chair.
Sounds like you need a leaf blower. Pass those donuts, please!
Too bad you are allergic to pollen. Not fun to have a clogged nose! Have you tried Allegra-D-12 for it? You need to get it directly from the pharmacist and sign for it, as it contains a controlled substance and is not sold over the counter. David and I swear by it. Don’t get the plain Allegra, as it does not work.
Gigi, my doctor has me on Singulair which i take at night and it helps. Can’t take just anything owing to HBP meds.
Spring is in the air! I actually went for a walk the other day and passed on an offer of ice cream.
