My overweight neighbor

One of my neighbors told me that he is looking into having lap band surgery to correct his obesity problem.  He has tried all kinds of weight loss conroe methods in the past but just can’t seem to lose weight.  Having surgery is a last resort option, but his doctor said that if he doesn’t lose weight soon he will die.  There is a medical facility called JourneyLite that he has contacted to see if lap band surgery is right for him.

Tangled mess

I got up this morning and let the dogs outside as usual.  It wasn’t fifteen minutes before my wife mentioned “the dogs are tangled again; the little one can’t even get to the house.”  Well, she goes out a lot herself and untangles them; what we really need is some new cords, but being short on money (and needing the exercise) we go out and untangle them on a regular basis.  This time they were REALLY tangled!  I know I only spent two or three minutes untangling them (quietly cussing to myself) and said to myself “boy I hope in the future I’m able to go buy some new cords so they are easier to untangle!”  They are really becoming a pain in the neck but we enjoy the dogs!  So be it!
