Why do I want to get away? Am I trying to get away from my &#8220;life&#8221; or is it a mid-life thing? I think it&#8217;s a more of a mid-life thing. But really I think I just need a short break.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;m planning on roughly April 8th to take a short road trip to the Grand Canyon. And on the way back see about finding a couple hot springs on the way back. It might work out perfect because the wife&#8217;s job is slow and might not have work for her.<\/p>\n<p>I think I have a head cold right now. Post nasal drip, achy neck\/ears\/nose\/etc<\/p>\n<p>Diet results<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t feel like getting up to look at the results for yesterday.<br \/>\nI do remember I stuck to the diet mostly.<br \/>\nDinner was a little heavy as it was a Chicken Rice bowl from Yasai with half of a California Roll. Lot&#8217;s of rice and it was a gut bomb.<\/p>\n<p>I didn&#8217;t go for my walk yesterday<br \/>\nI didn&#8217;t go for my walk today<br \/>\nI jump on the scale and it said 251.4 WTF!<br \/>\nIt said on thursday i was 247<br \/>\nI need to remember that even though I am weighing daily to not freak out on the daily swings.<\/p>\n<p>Tomorrow is Easter Sunday with the family. It&#8217;s gonna be a smorgasbord of food. If I&#8217;m feeling better I&#8217;ll go for a walk in the evening.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I need to stop reading stories like these -&gt; Lessons Learned from a year Living in a Van There are many things that have held me back from doing this.
