Nothin' You Ain't Got


Before I begin, hit play (above). Let us take a moment to enjoy this TRULY sharp-dressed man. He is perfection. 

And, since that puts me in a 10,000% New York state of mind, if you want to see some truly fabulous images from (mostly) Coney Island, I highly recommend my friend Dano's Instagram account. He gets shots of people and places that are food for the visual soul, like this snippet:

You have to go see his work to see the FULL splendor of this shot, plus all the other work! 
Trust me, it's worth it! 
On to other news ... 

Oh, yeah ... I was doing SO GOOD not looking at the scale. I even did NOT look at the doctor appointment. THEN, because I was not thinking, when I got my lab results back, I was scrolling down the page, and THERE it was. So, then, like a moron, the next morning, I did touch the scale, BUT I was fully clothed. I have no excuse. 

Back on the wagon today. 

As for the doctor visit, in fully typical fashion, when you know something is wrong with you, but you indicated even a MORSEL of depression, they go straight to the antidepressant. They did bloodwork, but it appears it was minimal. Still waiting on part of it. 

Meanwhile, since I know I won't be taking the drug, and I know there is more to the story than the GP was willing to explore, I requested an appointment at the OB/GYN. Something is amiss, and after talking with my beloved, it would appear a check of hormone levels is in order. I have avoided it for years, but maybe it's time for some HRT to bring me back into whatever balance I ever had? 

I don't feel HORRIBLE, but I know I am not my best self, and it's been a while since I have been, now that I think about it, so it behoooooooooves me to do something about it. 

On to happier bits, I made some new papers, which can be used for pretty much anything digital or printed: 




Serving suggestions ... 

You can find the papers here. Exciting stuff! 

It's Wednesday already. I am thoroughly enjoying my week or so of freedom from food obsessions. Eating what I want, when I want, and just being a normal human. No, I did not stock up on dozens of donuts. I am just not spending every waking moment thinking about what food does what and how it will affect me. That's a somewhat new, but also good feeling. 

Meanwhile, this week starts the renovation phase. First, the centuries-old concrete (I am exaggerating) will be gone and replaced. Then, windows. That's all I can think about at the moment, lest I get decision fatigue! Everything is working out, and it will all come together. 

Stay tuned for before-and-after footage. I'm certain it will be riveting! 

Clearly, when I'm not going on and on about past issues, there's not a whole lot to say, so I will cut it short and say good day! 

Happy Wednesday!

Renovation, Risk Assessment, Building Stuff and Testing My Ability to Cope with Stress

 Many days later ... Still not a lot to talk about. Just been doing things.  Got rid of this, finally, and moved the chairs behind it out to...
