HURRICANE IRENE
WELL, HURRICANE IRENE DID NOT DO MUCH DAMAGE FOR US HERE IN NOVA SCOTIA. WE STARTED WITH THE HIGH WINDS LAST NIGHT AND THEY ARE STILL GOING STRONG. THEY ARE GUSTING TO ABOUT 55 MILES AN HOUR. MY SCARLET RUNNER VINE THAT COVERS A GOOD PORTION OF THE FRONT OF MY HOUSE IS STILL HANGING IN THERE.
I AM DIETING....AGAIN!! TODAY MAKES DAY 14, I THINK. I AM USING AN ONLINE SITE CALLED WWW.LOSEIT.COM . IT IS A FREE SITE. I FIND IT IS REALLY KEEPING ME ON TRACK. I WENT OUT WITH ONE OF MY DOGS YESTERDAY TO DO A FEW LAPS AROUND THE WALKING PARK. WELL, I JUST GOT ABOUT 2 MINUTES INTO IT AND THE HEAVENS OPENED. I DID THE ONE LAP AND THAT WAS IT. POOR, MOE WAS JUST SOAKED AND WITH HIS LONG THIZ SHU HAIR HE TOOK FOREVER TO DRY.
I THINK I WILL VENTURE OUT TO OUR GYM IN THE GARAGE AND DO A FEW MILES ON THE TREADMILL. WAY TOO WINDY TO DO IT OUTSIDE.
IT IS ONLY 4 DAYS UNTIL MY FRIEND'S SON HAS HIS OPERATION TO REMOVE THE CANCER. PLEASE, CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR NICK.
HAVE A GREAT DAY. DEBBIE

Keeping Nick and his family in my prayers Deb........
Wow, your summer has been crappy. I am so glad you did not suffer too much wrath from Irene!!! All these weather happenings make me nervous.....Don\'t let a little wind keep you from doing what you need to do for your own health and dont overdo it either. You don\'t have to walk a few miles in the first \"run\". If you just do ten minutes at a medium pace, you are doing something. You can build up to it. Last week, I went out and decided to up my speed cuz I was feeling very energetic. I am paying for it now with a hip pointer that kills. Overdoing it will only hurt your cause.
I am so proud of you for taking your health seriously. You are important and worth it. Hope you have a great and maaaaaaavelous day girlfriend!!!! Luv ya, xo
55 MPH winds are not to bad, are you getting the heavy rains though? That seems to be more of a problem for many I\'ve talked to. Just don\'t get washed away or blown away in the storm.
Sure glad you didn\'t get to much damage. We will have to pray for those who did. Not sure if you are friends with my friend in N.C. I will have to check on her. My daughter has been doing the weight lose online. I think it is a combo of weight watchers and calories. They give recipes to help out and they are really good. She has lost 65 lbs, excuse me 67 and 1/2 and wants to lose another 20ish. She say\'s she will be were a 12 before her life is over..now 43 years old. She just started with the exercise, forget what the machine is called but she has been waiting for it to go on Craigs list for a long time. She loves it. I hope your friends son does well this week. Let us know. Naomi xo
yes we had those winds also.... keeping you friends son in my prayers.. hugs ..marie
