GayleMaz's Journal, 25 Oct 22

It's been months since I have recorded my weight or written in this journal. So much has happened.

I auctioned my home, farm and contents in late June. I moved in mid July to VA. I lived with my son and his family for 2 mos while finding a home to buy here. I found a cute little house in town along the Potomac River. I am loving my new community, house and state. It has all been tons of work, but worth it.

I have paid NO attention to what I eat or weigh. I unpacked my scale last week. Ugh. I was not surprised at the number, but that doesn't mean I like it. It shows that I am what I eat.

I have a new Dr and yesterday's bloodwork results and Dr visit were eye opening. A new med for cholesterol, a new plan for weight loss and getting my A1C down. Otherwise he will put me on insulin in January. I don't want to need that.

I am determined to work on my health now that my life circumstances have settled down some. I am trying to find just where I fit in to this community by attending several different civic meetings. Making new friends has never been easy for me, but I am trying.

I am grateful to be just 20 miles from son, his wife and kids, and my ex husband who is still a really good friend. Life goes on, and life is good.

Photos of my house, 2 of the river at the end of my street, the public beach, and the bridge between MD and VA.
