Curt James' training journal

Are you working in the summer?

Sundays at the comic book shop! But I'm keeping busy.

[Sunnyday]

The neighbor two houses down called me. I picked up her husband in the garden two weeks ago and this time he fell down in his garage and luckily didn't break anything.

He is one stubborn old guy, the one that looks like he could be your dad Curt!! I think he is 86. Damn, I am sure not looking forward to old age. Let me rephrase that, OLDER age.

2,295 calories today.



You're not alone, brother.

Tell my father to get a walker! :-)

Right there with you two.

Curt.....you are a teacher, right? Just asking because I was a guidance counselor for 31 years until I retired last year.

Yes, I'll mark 14 years as an elementary school art teacher in November.

Congratulations on 31 years teaching!

Congratulations on 12,000+ posts, Bob.

I was 182.3 lbs. this a.m. I've been clearing 2,333 (which was maintenance for 177) by a significant margin recently. Guess I should figure out what I want to weigh. lol

[Curt James]

Or was it 183.2 lbs.? O.o

Stopping at 2,170 calories today.

Heading to the beach tomorrow.
