I Found a Male Companion!!

Wasn't sure I'd find a male companion.
But I did.
He's not quite like Steve....but "some" similarities.

Not much of a talker
Listens to me though......
Loves to eat!!
STRONG!
Loves to run.
Loves the outdoors.
Loves to play games!

and a bonus is he LOVES TO CUDDLE and he is very very handsome.
(not very tall though) :(

BUT smart!! That's is probably the best characteristics I love. Smart

I hope he learns CrossFit as fast as he learned to fetch.

Not sure he can plow, fix pipes, mow the lawn or fix the roof... but he is cute.



Meet "Max" Stacey and Genes 6 month old puppy.

Crazy?


I'm not crazy! This remedy has worked for me for 20+ years.
When I start feeling low, stressed, a cold coming on to the medicine cabinet I go.
Besides whey protein this is the only supplement I take. Garlic. Garlic and Apple Cider Vinegar.

Now I admit I'm wrong about alot of things, I'm the first to admit it.
This one I'm not wrong on.

5000m garlic 1 double shot of apple cider vinegar with a chaser of water. (don't look at me like that-you get use to it)

Google: benefits to Apple Cider Vinegar. Braggs book of benefits will give you hundreds of reason why we should take it daily.

Examples:
  • 1 tablespoon of Raw Apple Cider Vinegar mixed in 4 ounces of purified water after a meal has been used as a natural remedy for heartburn and as a replacement for toxic heartburn medications.
  • Raw Apple Cider Vinegar may help improve bowel irregularity, thereby removing toxins from the body at a faster rate.
  • Helps clear up skin conditions and blemishes giving a smoother texture and complexion.
  • Raw Apple Cider vinegar may also help with joint pain and stiffness.
  • Apple Cider Vinegar helps to break down fats so that your body can use them rather than store them. For this reason, many diets include ACV in their regimen.
  • On a small scale, ACV was studied by researchers at Arizona State University. The preliminary study was published in the Diabetes Care journal. It reported that ACV helps reduce levels of glucose.

HABITS ??


Can a habit be a habit if it isn't "performed" on a daily, weekly or regular basis?

Although there is some parts of the definition which could be considered part of my makeup.

And how do you know if a habit is a "good" habit or a bad "habit?


But if habit is Habit-forming it now changes it to be an "addiction".

Maybe that's what I have "an addiction".....


1hab·it

noun \ˈha-bət\

Definition of HABIT

1. archaic : clothing
2
a : a costume characteristic of a calling, rank, or function habit> b : a costume worn for horseback riding
4
: bodily appearance or makeup habit>

Talk about "man"ly

I have done and continue to do alot of manly things:
fix pipes
sheetrock
change locks
fix roofs
carry heavy things
MOVE heavy things
kill large ugly creatures in the house
place poison down for mice
stand tall in the face of adversity!

BUT there is one thing I hated doing and have not had to do in the middle of the night until now.

It's when you get the call from one of the tenants..... the breaker just went off.
The old house can not take all these new appliances....space heaters 1. problem 2. hair dryers
3. air conditioners OR basically more then one thing in an outlet.

11:45 last night - Tramaine: "Joy, I'm real sorry but...."
11:50 drag my cold butt up to the apartments get the tarp off of the outdoor entrance to the basement, find the flashlight conveniently on the brick shelf and walk through mud and dirt under falling insulation to the back of the building to search for the correct breaker box.
11:55 all is fine.
12:00 "NOW" just try and fall back to sleep (sure!)
