Two Goats and a Donkey!

Wednesday, October 8, 2025

At least it's only been 3 months this time since my last entry! I hope this fine October day finds everyone well and happy! Recent activity since the last time has included a trip with Steve and Ian to the local university where both Steve and I attended and graduated, the University of Southern Mississippi, which has changed so very much! Although I attended it, I also worked there, right up until 2010 when I was let go for "budgetary cuts" (which many pointed out at the time that those being let go for those reasons were all larger sized, gay, or non-Christian. At the time I was all three of those). But that was 15.5 years ago, and I'm focusing on the pics below of us on campus. The first image below is, of course, Cooper, while the second is me at Antiques at the Loop in Mobile earlier the same day that we went to USM. Those next 11 images are from the USM trip when we walked around on campus for about an hour. The next image is a fiery one I took at breakfast at Panera Bread and used a Snapchat filter on us. The next 5 are home pictures with Steve, Ian, Cooper, and myself. The next three images are from a trip Ian and I made to Steve's restaurant, where on the way back we stopped at his house to see his formal garden, and then we stopped at an antique store in Magee, where I found the items in the next two pics that I thought were very descriptive of me lol.

The next 4 are some fun pics of Cooper and myself, with the last of the 4 being Steve and Ian at Dairy Queen one Friday night (our usual haunt when Steve comes down and I mee them there after work on Fridays). The next image is from the Chinese buffet after I got out of work on one of the Saturdays that I had to work last month. It's now October, so I'm waiting to see what this fortune has in store for me! I took it very literally since there are several changes I plan in the coming months, and maybe one of them will start this month and will be the launch into the others as well! Of the next 2 pics, the first is me back in April when I weighed 240 pounds, while the second is from a couple of weeks ago when I weighed 189. I managed to lose 51 pounds at that time (now it's 53 pounds), and I'm so very proud of myself! I can't seem to go below 187, which has had me stressed out, but I've decided to embrace that plateau and not worry so much about losing the last 4 (or so...my weight constant fluctuates between 187 and 192) pounds to reach 183, but I can live this close to it. I still very much have a belly though, so I need to work on toning up and getting this saggy body looking a little tighter. The rest of the images are from our home life, with a single work picture sneaking in there, and then the last pic is one I took just last night when I got home from work. I didn't quite have the energy today to get into other things I'd like to talk about, but I can do that the next time.

I know y'all are wanting to see the Male Eye Candy for today. Who wouldn't want to see these guys?

Anyway, I hope you enjoy this entry, and keep watching, you never know when a new one will come along! Love you all!
