Good Golly, it's another year!

231--->226.8

I was not planning on going quiet on this blog at all, but my health failed me. Friday before last got some sort of stomach bug, destroyed me for about 4 days solid and have taken another 6 or so to regain my strength and mental functioning. I have not left the house since last Friday, which is a new world's record for me. A bunch of holiday plans got cancelled, Betsy juggled the kids, the food shopping, the laundry etc. on her own, and for that I'm amazed and grateful. My eating went close to zero for the first four days, and have been slowly increasing my intake. Today was the first day of relatively normal eating, though I'm finding we're pretty low or out of everything.

On the positive side, a few pounds came off, though I wouldn't invest too much in that. I'm not that big into New Year's resolutions, but the few I make I usually follow through on. Here is what I'm thinking:
  • Resume biweekly weight lifting. Other than simply increase strength, flex and muscle mass, one paricular goal: gain the ability to do one chin-up. I've never been able to do one, and to accomplish that would be a not-small deal.
  • Kontinue Knishing. Next steps are to set up a kickstarter, establish a relationship with an incubator kitchen, and book some tables. 
  • Ride more miles than this past year. Shouldn't be too hard to accomplish, as a) B will not be giving birth again (hopefully) and Edie will be ready to be taken on longer adventure rides.
I think all that is within reason, right?
