Physical Reason for Stuffing Myself

I was going to get some new photos of the boys, but they would not cooperate. I'll try again tonight.

I made it to the gym again this morning. Wow. That's two days in a row. I'm going for four.

My stomach still feels much better—although I'm more tired today than yesterday. I felt so good yesterday, I think I wore myself out.

Still pounding away on the piano. Right now, I'm still really confused over the notes. I know the keys, but when it comes to actually playing a song, suddenly I'm a klutz—well, that may not be sudden. I feel like I have flippers instead of fingers. Anyway, I'm practicing. I'm also looking into some piano software. I think that would be cool. A friend of mine is supposed to help me figure all of that out.

I ate breakfast before I went to the gym today, and now I'm hungry again. My stomach is growling—and it feels like actual hunger pangs and not that feeling that I need to stuff myself to make my stomach feel better.

We're having a Christmas lunch at work today. I think I can make it through without over doing it. Like I said, I no longer feel like I have a need to stuff myself. You know, sometimes our downfalls actually have a physical explanation.

Pain in the Gut

Wow. I've been gone for a while.

I have an ulcer. I was getting to the point where I felt nauseated all of the time. I'm taking something called Protonix. I haven't felt as well as I feel right now for a very long time. I had no idea that an ulcer could make you feel so bad.

What else have I been doing? Learning to play the piano. I can sort of play Jungle Bells now. And I can sort of read music.

I made it to the gym today, and my leg feels better. I mean really better. Can an ulcer cause muscle cramps in muscles other than your stomach? Let me know if you have that one figured out.

I'll try to post more later.
