Here is the video I told about in the last post. I thought it was funny this morning. Dogs being lazy!

Today has been a great day for me. I have gotten a lot done and the weather has been amazing. I even caught the dogs being lazy today. I took a video of them. I will post it up next. Quote of the Day: I not only use all the brains I have but all that I can borrow. --Thomas Woodrow Wilson Ephesians 4:2 “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.” Brought to you by BibleGateway.com .

So far 2011 has not been what I expected. It has been very bad financially mostly. I feel the brink my come this year. On a brighter note for this year, I have cleared a lot of junk out of my life and house. Quote of the Day: Behavior is a mirror in which every one displays his own image. --Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe Philippians 2:14-16 “Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.” Brought to you by BibleGateway.com . Copyright (C) . All Rights Reserved.

Well, it is another year. I pray this one is a lot better than last year. I was reflecting last night how if I was still in law enforcement, I would have only 4 years to go to full retirement. However, I don’t know if I would have lived longer than 5 years after that. I would probably be about 250 to 260 pounds. Plus have full blown diabetes and still probably would have had glaucoma in my right eye. On top of that the citizens of Hillsborough County would have drove me nuts. I am thankful to the Lord for telling me to leave when I did. I have pre-diabetes. Still have glaucoma in my right eye and have lost 26 pounds in the last year. I did it slowly over the course of the year and I am maintaining my weight. I plan on talking to my doctor again and see if I can go back on the Phenteramine. I seem to hold my weight once I lose it thanks to the those pills. I am hoping to pay down more debt this year. I am hoping. I pray that the Lord will give me enough of a pay raise to help accompli...
