This day is much more than a day for bar-b-que and no work.  This is a day we should pause to remember those that have gone before us and those who are currently serving our country.  No matter how you feel about our current war you should never forget there are those who will not be home for this day.   When you snuggle in your comfortable lawn chair remember there are those who can’t be comfortable at all.  When you watch your kids play there are those who long to see their children or will never see them again.  We are fortunate there are those that have gone before us to ensure a way of life that is free.  Take a moment to reflect on our fellow countrymen and women who stand on a line and keep us safe.  This is dedicated to our honored fallen and to my son who has served two tours in Iraq.  Be Safe…Blueknight - Somalia 1993.      

i’m very happy with the 12 pounds lost since i started mybodyspace.  i was 240lbs.  in october ‘07 when my wife got us the membership at 24hr fitness I was at 253 lbs.  My highest was 263 lbs.  amazing how you can just let go and not see it.  too many whataburgers!  hopefully i can get back to my football weight of 200 lbs from senior year in 1986.  the yo-yo weight loss i have delt with since age 19 has been a chore.  this time i will not lose weight and put it back on because i feel somewhat satisfied.  the only satisfaction is the feeling of hard work and keeping the weight off.

Trying to count calories.  Want to see where it takes me.  Life is an adventure.
