Blizzard

Dear Kerby,This past week has be weird. Over night it snows, then the next day everyone tries to shovel out after the snow (blizzard). Schools and churches were closed among other things. Where do we put all the snow? I tried to move it into a grassy area. A few days later it rains and the snow melts. This makes a watery mess due to warmer temperatures. The ground can not handle that much melting...

Moved

Dear Kerby, I am looking good with the move I am making. I took the time to run some paper goods through the paper shredder while cleaning out my room. I took them out along with other items because I have not touched or used them in the past year. Some of the itmes were beginning to fall apart from just sitting around.During my high school years I was just beginning my knowledge and production of...

Hidden

Dear Kerby, I thought I would share some things you might not know about me. These might not be the most shocking but they are interesting. I have more than three jazz stations on Pandora. I have a Grateful Dead vanity plate on the front of my car. My first smartphone was purchased in 2014. Owner of an iMac, iPad, and iPod Classic but not an iPhone. On various sites and computer drives I have artwork...

Schedule

Dear Kerby, Yesterday, I felt like I had nothing going on this week. In return, I stated tackling some organization. Here is what happened the first day: Recycled a somewhat nice size pile of photographer magazines. Started a bad of items that need to go in the trash. This may include clothes and other such items that can not be recycled. Clothes than can be worn again by people other than myself. Here...

Reorganization

Dear Kerby, My old 17 inch laptop was semiprivate because I was able to not have people look over my shoulder when I was sitting at my desk. Also, I could easily move it elsewhere in the house when I wanted. The laptop was on an old desk I had put in the living room area. With the new iMac everyone can see and hear what I am doing in the living room. Having a 21 inch screen is pretty big and lacks...

Lesson Learned

Dear Kerby, I failed on the morning worouts. I tried and got myself into a mess. I need not get into the details. Believe me, I found my rhythm of night exercise. Night time is when everything is shutdown and quiet. It is very peaceful and zen time. In the morning I feel more rushed to complete the exercises. My Fitbit alarm goes off at night I know that I have a few minutes to get ready to...

Finances

Dear Kerby, The other day I calculated the total of my weekly income from when I started my job at the restaurant in May till when it closed in October. In total it was enough money to pay for a new 2015 iMac and then some. I remember that the first thing I purchased was the Fitbit Charge HR. At that time I wanted to start tracking my activity/weight more better since I had a job where I was walking...

Turn Around

Dear Kerby, Monday — Friday is equal to one workweek according to Fitbit. Fitbit has a competition called the Workweek Hustle. During the week of February 25 — February 29 I hit a goal of 55,384 steps total with a daily goal of 11,000 steps. Some days I did less and other days I did more to make up for previous days. I am proud of myself for doing this many steps. Some of the steps happened to...

Badges of Accomplishment

Dear Kerby, I have been on Lose It! ever since I purchased my iPad2 many years ago and still am throughout my technology upgrades. The health tracking company has created a nice website and app where I can log the food (calories) I consume in the form of meals and snacks. When I am not consuming food I can track my activity. Activity can be anything from walking to vacuuming; anything that gets...
