Well for the second week in a row Paula and I have done the boxing class at the gym. The regular trainer wasn’t available and so we had a new lady who was equally as tough.
I’m actually feeling okay today, no sore muscles, so I must be getting used to the exercise. I have to […]

Two days ago I went to the gym. Not sure why now since today I can barely walk. Why am I doing this, I ask? Because it is good for you, they say. Well I really don’t think it is all that good since if it was I would be able to walk today without […]

There are addictions to illicit drugs, prescription drugs, alcohol and smoking and for those of us who have been […]

Nia ( as my daughter Varinia calls herself ) and her partner Shaun came to visit last night. Poor Varinia has a really bad cold similar to something I had myself recently, so I gave a cough remedy that Paula had found on the net, and that I use whenever I have a cold.
