Happy 21st birthday, Matthew!

Twenty one years; wow! Have a wonderfully happy day, Matthew!

Update on weight loss

Too bad I don't have a thin picture of myself. I mean, a picture of myself looking thin.

However, I've lost 7 lbs and I measured myself yesterday, and I've lost 1" around the waist, and 1" around my hips. I'm quite pleased with that, but I do have a long way to go.

I walked to the Burnaby library and to Metrotown yesterday. It was 13 C and broke another record for warmth on February 4. I walked along Central Park, which is only 15 minutes from my house. The park engineers have built a long paved path running the length of one side of the park, along the Skytrain route. It's open, with lots of new lighting, and I feel very safe there. I don't know why I haven't tried it before now, as it saves me $3.75 fare.

Notice the photo above. Our allergies are beginning to annoy us.
