40 Pounds and Why am I the Only One Doing This???

Reached a milestone today - 40 pounds - it would be more exciting if I hadn't been calling it 40 pounds for the last six weeks when it's really been 38.5 pounds.  But today, it's finally a reality - 40 pounds.  40 or so more to go.

Now why am I the only one with anything to say in here?

Here's an update on me and Cliff - He got sick around the first of the year - very, very sick.  He's been diagnosed as bipolar.  We're finally see light at the end of this nasty tunnel - he takes a bucket-full of meds and the man I've loved for 14 years has returned.  However, it's doubtful he'll ever return to work.  So we're downsizing, big time.

We bought two little lots on a little lake in Beechgrove, Tennessee - about 30 miles from Karen.  There's a little shack/cabin tucked into the trees (well-built but very small and plain).  It's gonna be an adventure, and I'm looking forward to living a life where we aren't stretched financially or physically.  We will probably make the move around the first of April.

Megan is in her first year at the 4 year college - and teacher's pet, and  Anthony is moving back to San Antonio to start college using his GI bill.  That pretty much sums things up here.

Love you guys.

You're the only one talking because you're the only one losing weight and living an adventurous life! I'm just hanging in there with very little excitement to speak of. Kaitlin did get an Australian Shepherd from the animal shelter. She has blue eyes that dance when Kaitlin comes home and she cries when Kaitlin leaves. Shadow thinks she's interesting and is somewhat amused with her. Now you have the news from here. Can't wait for you to move up here!
