Responsibility 199, what is it?

Responsibility 199 is a belief; I believe that to be healthy and to increase my longevity I need to weigh 199 pounds or less...
Responsibility 199 is a need; I need to reduce my weight, reduce my percentage of body fat, and the elevated threat of disease my present condition presents...
Responsibility 199 is a mission; I recognize that achieving 199 will be a challenge, perhaps the hardest I have ever undertaken...
Responsibility 199 is a commitment; I acknowledge that I must commit to action, commit to change, commit to myself and those I love to achieve this mission, to increase my longevity...
Responsibility 199 is ME.

Day 281 - Saturday Is Supposed To Be FUN

Saturday is for fun, or so I hear. So what are we doing today?

My wife just did the bills and is working on our taxes, she is an accountant type person; still not even she finds that fun.

My one son is at a wrestling meet, it is late in the season and he so wants it to be over; so he is not having as much fun as he wants.

My other one son is sick with a cold, just woke up feeling it this morning; so not fun for him. I think I know who he got it from.

My other other one son is still asleep, slacker; perhaps he is having a fun dream.

My daughter went to a sleepover last night at a friends house, which means they probably went to bed at 5 a.m.; likely she had fun.

My cats, oh they are all asleep of course; soon I'll sprinkle catnip on the carpet for my own entertainment - meow.

Myself, SICK! It's been creeping in over the past two days and settled in last night. So blahs'ville for me today. In the picture up top there is Me, hello; settling in to munch some steel-cut oatmeal w/ strawberries & honey before busting out this post.

Yeah, not happy about the fun-o-meter dipping south at the moment, it happens. Even so, I am game for a laugh. I saw this recently, I think on Facebook; I forget who I lifted it from so not sure who to credit, heck it may have been one of you. I got a giggle out of it, and as I currently feel like one of these glasses; seems like a good time to share it. Hope you enjoy too...

HAVE A GREAT & FUN WEEKEND!

  1. Well at least you can watch da Bears this weekend. As a Vikes fan I hope Peppers has a career ending knee injury (that would never effect daily life though), but only after he rips Aaron Rodgers right arm off and smacks 4 concusions into that nelson twin reject linebacker Matthews.

    Have a good weekend!

  2. Sorry to hear your day is kinda blah man! Keep your head up...you know it's just one of those days.

    HAHAHA, I am so stealing that picture from you, and hence stealing it from whoever you stole it from, which they probably stole it.....

    Hope your day gets better!

  8. Hope next weekend is better for all of you!

    Mildred, one of my four cats, is a hardcore catnip stoner. Not content with sniffing/rubbing/delicately nibbling the tasty buds of catnip I present her with, it's jaws open wide and the stuff is GONE!

  9. Great picture! Sunday is our fun day. Or at least we try to do something fun. My idea, like one of your sons, is to sleep in. Cheers, Rick

  11. Being the realist here, I am such a DOPE! Oh gosh, someone left a comment on my blog, and when I clicked on his link, there was your blog listed. I didn't catch that your blog was one that he followed, not his blog. I just figured it out when I read the comment from Patrick and his name was Rick.

    So there you have it--a weird comment from a crazy-on-drugs woman who doesn't read carefully.

    Hope this brought some fun to your day.

  12. OMG, I cackled out loud at that poster. Hubby came in to see and he chuckled. I said, "That is so me.! I'm the one saying, "Um, guys, this is piss." hhahahahhaha

    Anyway, when hubby is feeling not so great and not so fun, I just rub his hair and smooch his forehead and cheeks and rub his neck and back gently and tell him over and over all the wonderful, amazing things he is until he takes a nap and forgets the day is shit. Then chill a healthy berry-banana smoothie for when he wakes up thirsty.

    So, just show this comment to the Mrs. :D Maybe she'll get a notion... heh heh

  20. I'm not feeling tip-top either so today is sorta a blah day too. Still playing on the computer though, looking and learning. Was going to go moonlight skiing but at -10 right now think I'll skip it since I'm also not feeling good and don't want whatever is lurking around the corner. My son had a great day, had his cousin over and they went snowmobiling, playing games and just putzing around. My hubby worked 1/2 day, and sales were good so he was happy and now playing in his garage, he's having fun. So at least someone is.
    I hope you're day got better or at least you napped it away so your didn't get worser. Take care and have a blessed evening.
