A few days ago, I was sitting here in my jammies and fuzzy socks, a usual occurrence for a cold (14F) morning in Texas. We don't get these cold snaps very often. Our town is not prepared to deal with snow and ice, so when we get them, we are told to...

Back in mid-November, I put up a post about Ozempic and other similar drugs that people have been taking for weight loss. It was an 'Ozempic for dummies" type of post (which I, myself, needed).  I did some research to provide the basics of what these...

"I wish I could more like you. You always walk with such confidence..."   Huh?.... This was something that was spoken to me about 15 years ago. I never really forgot it. It Easter Sunday at a church service, back in the day when our family were regul...

Is it Hot in Here? (I think so, but others don't)

One of my personal arguments for promoting and being on the calorie deficit diet is that it is 'science' based. I believe that we are subject to laws of thermodynamics. If you asked me weeks ago what I meant by that, I would have 'smartly' (cluelessl...
