I didn't like this Thanksgiving like I did last years. This year was much more in compliance and better for me even though this year had more healthier foods. I just didn't do well before and afterwards like I did last year. The reason ? I didn't log, I didn't have a good attitude, I just have not felt good. But here I am back to basics.

Since I now have a lap top it makes it nicer because I can watch tv and log my food at the same time.Friday, October 15th 2010
I'm glad I have a place to blog more than a sentence or two. Tonight it is about my favorite baseball team which finally made it to the playoffs after ten years of trying. Yep, the Rangers last appearance in a play off was 11 years ago. The year I moved to Houston. I remember that year. It was my last year living in the metroplex and the last time I got to a Ranger game. Since then, baseball has not been the same for me as I have not been able to get into the Astro's or National League. Tonight...
