Halloween is near ...

I'm
still here, just been focusing on getting ready for my annual
Halloween Party. I've made a bunch of tombstones and a cemetery sign
for the front yard, and ghosts to hang in trees and in the house. I'm
doing the whole house in Halloween style, even the bathroom! (I've
made a ghoul who'll take up residence in the shower). I'll be back
with regular posting once it's over, but I just wanted to check in.
My
shoulder is much better now, just over a month post surgery. I still
can't lift the arm in front more than half way but I'm driving again
and getting around and doing all my normal activities again for the
most part. I have a final appointment with the doctor in November, and
I'll be asking how soon I can actually start working out with the left
arm. I'm also saving money because I really want to look into hiring a
personal trainer once I am cleared to exercise it.
I've also downloaded a 14-day vegetarian diet plan from
Anne Collins' website -
it can be adapted to be vegan. I'm going to study that and see if I
can incorporate it into my routine as well. It may be well balanced,
but I haven't had time to look it over well yet, so I don't know if it's
well-planned. I've seen diets that call for small amounts of
something you can only buy in bulk that you don't use again during the
rest of the meal plan -- for instance, a plan may call for 2
strawberries, and then they won't be on the menu again for 2 weeks.
Well what am I to do with the rest of the strawberries in the package,
throw them out? So I'm hoping it doesn't have that kind of stuff going
on, but we'll see. There are substitutions on the list, so maybe I
can work around such items, if they exist.
So I'll be back soon and let you know how the plan's working, but first -- let me get through this Halloween party!
