		<title>A hiatus</title>
		<description>I won't be writing here for a while.  I'm trying to figure out some server issues, and a possible move to wordpress.  Hopefully, I'll be back new and improved.

		<title>Tally so far</title>

Mon:  2372
Tues:  4002
Wed:  3648

So, in other words...  I'm one lazy ass.

		<title>Day three</title>
		<description>So, today is day three of the walking challenge.  No challenge as of yet, as all we're to do is have a normal week so we can see the baseline.  Day one I was a little over 2500 steps.  Not great considering the goal is 10,000.  ...</description>

		<title>Starting?</title>
		<description>So, I started a walking program through work - basically a competition on how many pedometer steps you can get in in 10 weeks.

We'll see how I do.

This week, however, is just a baseline week.

		<title>EPA Approves New Pesticide</title>
		<description>EPA approves new pesticide despite scientists' concerns

Chemists say methyl iodide, a neurotoxin that can mutate DNA, has 'serious potential for accidents.' But federal officials say safeguards in place are sufficient to protect farm workers and field-adjacent neighborhoods.

Despite the protests of more than 50 scientists, including five Nobel laureates in chemistry, ...</description>

		<title>Yeah Yeah Yeah</title>
		<description>Well - the good news is, I haven't gained any weight.  That's about the only good thing.  Lots of changes going on in my life at the moment.  Good things.  Me taking control of some things, and going to God in the process.

Why can I not ...</description>

		<title>Not Thinking</title>
		<description>So I've been trying to NOT think about weight loss, and just try to live my life in a more healthful way, without really trying to concentrate on it.  I know it sounds like and oxymoron.

For example - I took my breakfast to work with me because it was ...</description>

		<title>Hello there, stranger</title>
		<description>I know I haven't been around, blah blah blah.  I'll spare you.

Mainly as far as getting healthy goes, I've just been thinking about it.  Isn't that pathetic?

But I haven't been overeating, which is a start.  I haven't felt like I needed to - and just don't want ...</description>

		<description>I'm not sure where to go from here.  Finances are tight and I had to quit JC.

Have you seen Susan Powter?  Talk about girl power.  But I've been thinking a lot about what she has to say.  So.  I'm going to try and think more ...</description>
