I’ve Learned My Eyeglass Lesson

Posted on August 3, 2008 - Filed Under Health Care | Leave a Comment

 It seems that despite my recent lost wallet and my assertion that I’ve “moved “get a spare pair of glasses” up on my priority list”, it was much too little too late.  As I recently related the Pacific Ocean claimed my old pair of glasses on a recent visit to the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, leaving me legally blind for…

Getting It All Back Together

Posted on July 28, 2008 - Filed Under Fatherhood | 1 Comment

Wow!  It’s been a really great summer.  I suppose I should say it was a really great summer, ’cause mine’s over now.  It started early (with the trip to Hard Rock Park’s opening in May) so I suppose it’s only fair that it end early as well. Tomorrow Z boards a plane to visit my mother for two weeks, then…

Zenni Optical Prescription Glasses - Deal Or Dud?

Posted on July 11, 2008 - Filed Under Health Care, Shopping | Leave a Comment

After losing my wallet while riding Tatsu at Six Flags Magic Mountain a couple of weeks back I’ve moved “get a spare pair of glasses” up on my priority list.  Luckily my wallet was found, but those three hours or so without it were not exactly “fun times at the amusement park”.  Losing (or breaking) my glasses would leave me…

Answering Concerns About Cedar Fair And Disabilities

Posted on July 11, 2008 - Filed Under Health Care, Ride Reports | Leave a Comment

Part of the Cedar Fair’s Disabled Rider Policy Series - Previous in series         

Yesterday I praised Cedar Fair on their new policy that disabled guests now need to wait just as long as everyone else to experience the rides at Cedar Fair amusement parks.  Since I wanted to share as many details as possible the post ran fairly long. …

Bravo To Cedar Fair!

Part of the Cedar Fair’s Disabled Rider Policy Series -         Next in series

Now there’s a headline I never thought I’d write.

My regular readers are aware that my “day job” is caring for developmentally disabled adults. In fact, I work more than 100 hours per week doing this, so it’s more like my three day jobs. You should also be…

Back On The Weight Loss Track

Posted on May 16, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | 1 Comment

Okay, so I didn’t reach my goal weight of 200 pounds before I went on vacation to Myrtle Beach. But The good news is that I was still able to ride everything at Hard Rock Park and that’s what really matters. When I weighed myself upon my return late Saturday night I had bounced back up to 241. But considering I…

Dieting And Quitting Smoking DO Mix! Who Knew?

Posted on April 30, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | Leave a Comment

Despite all of the “common wisdom” out there that says people gain weight when they quit smoking I decided to reisk my forward (or is that downward?) momentum on my weight loss goal by quitting smoking as well. It’s now been 10 days without a cigarette (wow! I actually had to look that up :D ) and in that time I’ve…

Moving Forward With My Weight Loss Goals

Posted on April 24, 2008 - Filed Under Aahz, Health Care | 5 Comments

Thirteen days to my weight loss deadline and I’ve been cracking down rather successfully. Last week I reported that I’d bounced back up to 242 pounds, well I’m proud to report that I’ve not only regained my footing, but moved even further into territory that hasn’t been explored in a few years: 235 pounds! WooHoo! That’s a net weight loss…
