Really had a good week. Â This is the first week where I’ve pretty much been able to do almost whatever I want without having any issues. I got winded on Monday scraping the snow and ice off of my car but didn’t break into a coughing fit despite the cold weather.
I spent most of the week at Tom’s house and was able to carry on conversations with him all week without them turning into a bunch of coughs – that was a first too.Â
I was out shopping this afternoon wandering around stores for about three hours without an issue – usually one trip around a store will wear me out but I walked all through Target, WalMart, and Best Buy without a problem.
I’m targeting New Year’s Eve as the rebirth of my social life. Â My favorite band, JR and Natalie, are playing at a local bar and I’m going to head there for the night (after my obligatory stop at the Tavern).
Sounds like an appropriate night to debut the new you.
Good luck.
How did it go?
Went pretty well. Went to the Tavern at about ten and ran into a few people I haven’t seen for months. Then hit Cafe 210 where Natalie was playing at about 11 (she and the band were very surprised and pleased to see me – or, as they put it, to see the “two thirds of me” that was left). Normally, I’d stay there until closing but I was getting a little tired so, a little before 1 AM, I sneaked out to go to a little quieter place where I could sit down for a while. Other than my stamina, I had no issues all night.
Now as long as I didn’t pick up any stray germs while I was there (and I’ll know that for sure in the next day or two), then everything can be labeled a rousing success.
More good news in that my weight is still staying off (173 yesterday morning) and everyone seems to think that I look great.
