The Okie in Isolation: Thursday

By Bobby Neal Winters

It is a beautiful day.
I did my walk and took a picture of the Cross which has been dressed for Lent. There is a nice (in the sense of being strong) breeze and bright sunshine.

I have lost one pound over the last seven days.  And this is a real one pound.  I have a FitBit and scale that synchronizes with the FitBit.  It keeps a weekly average for me, and I have lost one pound from the seven-day average.
My back has not hurt on any of the walks I’ve taken this week.  This is why I’ve set my sights on losing the weight.  There is cause and effect going on here. My weight goes down, ergo my back hurts less. Less weight = less pain. Sometimes doing the obvious thing works.
