2015? De Ruyter’s story put on screen and you missed it?
Another Friday Night worth having. Take a little pride in your progress. 2 weeks. 10 pounds. Today was 600 cal burned.
Burn 100 more before you leave. You’re going to have a minor celebration, But you have to pay for it in advance on the treadmill.
Six weeks. Only one social drink out when a friend pushed the emergency button needing to vent about something.
Wanted to play it safe when you reflexively went for the Admiral Nelson after a week of it.
Minimum one month sober. If you had a problem, you would be the last to know. Made it and was looking forward to getting back to Rum… How much? “Let’s find out, two more weeks.”
You’re good. Final test was last night picking it up and waiting until tonight to open it. Dad was always terrified you had his dad’s demons. No reason to take chances especially when it comes to empty calories lolz
104 calories per shot – if you go with regular spiced and not the Admiral Nelson 101 you prefer. Fun.
Logging every calorie in meals and exercise is difficult but it will be worth it.

Yeah it’s only a cooldown but still… you better enjoy that shot🙄
The admiral movie looks fun. Heard the score on the treadmill. Got pumped. And earned another shot.
Why is it that you very very rarely dream of the sea (even when you rarely do dream) but very few things exhilarate you more then seeing it and once in a blue moon getting on it?
Just another one of life‘s little mysteries. 🤔
The weird thing is that action movies get the adrenaline pumping as those parts of The human psyche that love going into battle get massaged. It’s natural to us. primal. No wonder everybody’s at each other‘s throat politically, people aren’t getting this stuff out of their system in this hyper regulated world.
Which is so bizarre because of all the action going around us and within us that we can’t see. But that’s for a later day.
Food Lion is a lot easier these days. Mostly just Waters, powerades and cat food. Money is very tight, but you remember something you heard a long time ago and picked up some really cheap cat food to donate. If you are generous when it’s it’s hardest to be, blessings seem to follow. Animal Society loves making sure people don’t stop feeding their pets when a recession hits.
You’re not saving anyone’s day it’s only five dollars on sale. But it’s a tiny little bit of difference. Just like every calorie not eaten at Chick-fil-A. Every blister from old shoes on the treadmill. Every Bible verse you read and don’t understand.
Wherever you’re going? you’ll get there. 🙂
Now it’s time for feet and muscles to ache sitting back and see what the Dutchmen pulled off at sea… 🌊 😁
