This may get old, these celebrations of the YNY life, but I sure had a beauty this weekend. Up on Lake Winnepesauke again...up at dawn and took the new Whitehall (actually a Little River Heritage Skiff, made of carbon fiber) out before any else was stirring.

Chris and I would like to begin collecting what we call limbic resources. These are organizations, mostly non-profits, that offer effective vehicles for Younger Next Year members to get connected, do some good, and build their limbic base.

THANKING CHRIS

Chris's latest piece, "Listen To your Body" is priceless and a subject I think too much about, maybe... & I'm cautious (also maybe) to a fault. I do stay busy & active in my lifestyle, lift a few free weights, never push exercise beyond a certain point, which isn't all that high a bar, concentrating more on balance, remaining stretchable and limber, maintaining bodily definition & high density - low calorie nutrition... have felt somewhat a shirker on some days... but Chris's blog is reaffirming. Thanks, Chris!

UPDATE: Am down another unit of insulin... to just THREE UNITS (from 20, sixteen months ago) and maintaining low blood glucose readings! Intend to drop 2 to 7 more pounds and that just might do it as far as getting off the stuff. Already, I worry, knowing that I can't maintain the weight I arrive at, without increasing calories somewhat... and wether that will necessitate reinstating insulin... with weight down that much more, maybe not... I repeat, this is always the journey, never the destination.
