  I thought I'd gone to the limits. I hadn't. The Cenobites gave me an experience beyond limits... pain and pleasure, indivisible.

  i am extremely overweight (280lbs.

  several friends suggested walking.

  we have a 'rail trail' near the house here that goes all the way to two towns over, about 30km long.

  That's awesome! Just getting out and walking or doing anything like that is so good for you not only physically but yeah it makes you feel so much better in every way. Good on you, keep it up, it's also a great way to feel better inside.

  Do you keep track of your credit score?

  by restrangled in

  i have free access to how the 3 major credit companies are keeping score.

  it is actually quite bizzare.....i have a good rating but it has gone up and down by 75 points based on what i have spent, what i have paid, balances, etc.

  what ticks me off is that credit i did not apply for, and anyone looking into my account can bring it down.. so i checked and sure enough, plenty of businesses had checked into it, actually issuing credit cards waiting for my response.....this in the mean time reduces my credit rating.. how disgusting is this?.

  Everybody should run a credit report at least once a year (I believe legally you can even get a free one from all 3 major credit reoporting companies at least once per year). A few months ago I ran mine and found someone had used my name and social security number to buy over $2,000 worth of things from a company I have never used. It was taken off once I contacted all 3 companies and was able to prove the address it was send to was not mine. I expected it to be a bigger hassle but luckily it wasn't. I've flagged my account in case any credit is applied for in my name I'll know it wasn't me.
  I'd lost my drivers license awhile back when I was moving from one place to another and my Drivers License had my SS# on it. I've since taken my SS# off my license as well.

  Do you get joy out of doing your own yard work?

  the heat index here in orlando is currently 105 degrees, but being the bull dog type i am, insist on mowing in this heat.

  it will take me another 2 days to trim out, and get any stray stuff done like brown palm fronds etc.

  this is my 3rd break on the first day, my face is bright red and am sweating like someone in a gym.. i find great joy in a beautiful lawn, nicely trimmed out, beautiful trees and flowers etc.. on the other hand i am mowing in my light short cotton nightgown which looks like a pretty t-shirt but is lighter weight with a pair of jeans.....my husband is cracking up!

  R- I always do my own yard work too. There's nothing better then the feeling once you get finished, your yard looks fantastic and knowing that you did that- yourself! Even though usually when I'm done I have tiny cuts all over from the thorns on the tree I trimmed down and my back is aching from loading all the shrubbery I cut back and loaded into the truck then proceeded to get on and jump to make more room for the rest...
  There's still nothing like it ;-)
  Although unlike what you wore, I usually wear pants, work boots, long sleeves, a hat and gloves even when it's over 100 degrees out. Otherwise I always come back inside with a horrible sunburn and then I'm not as happy about how great my yard looks.
