The fellow in the back, dressed in yellow is Garret Hawe, back when he was in "Newsies," doing the pre-show warm up which that cast did. Gavin is also in the ensemble of "Carousel," and he may be the guy who does that splat--or is it splay--so I wish I had his tone. I am working to it, but need all the help I can get. Help, Gavin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am on the fourth day of my mile long walk each morning, which is to lose weight, certainly, but, more important, to help lower my A1C!!!!!!!!!!! That is what I am concerned about!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have learned the importance of hydration, especially as I age, and so am carrying a sippy cup with me, at all times. On the second half of the walk, which is, understandably the more difficult part, but so satisfying, when I reach the point of having made it, that I feel good, even if I am out of breath and sweating.
I tell myself the sweat is weight coming off. I still pretend to be a Von Trapp while circling the frog compass in the park. And, when the going gets tough I think of Donna (McKechnie) and all she persevered through, and it gives me the impetus to go on.
I see the doctor next in three months. Not only do I hope I will see results, but having done more of this by then, I hope I will feel like doing a "Newsies," or "Carousel" warm up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Help me, guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
