Just an Author Trying to Get Healthy in a Fast Food World

So, last night I went to see Stone Cold and the Jackal and it was a blast, but today we're back to real life. The Stone Cold and the Jackal show was really funny. They talked a lot about General Hospital, and teased and picked on the stories and the characters. I loved it. Mr. G was lost. After the 90minute show, the VIP ticketholders were to line up for the meet and greet. Seriously, grown women are worse than any child in these situations!!

And I sure don't want to post about that, lol. But here we are... Christmas threw me off. I ate cookies and potatoes and loved it all. But when the New Year came, I was ready to get back on track. And then that didn't happen. And then my Grandmother's health declined. I was home all day everyday, and we still had cookies and goodies around. And I ate my feelings. (I do much better when the junk food ISN'T in the house. Why? Well, because I am mostly too lazy to go out to the store to buy more, so if it's not here, I won't eat it.) I was stressed and sad, and I snacked. When my Grandmother passed awa
