Beginning my Blog. Welcome!

 Hello.

 I'm a former inner-city schoolteacher who faced a health crisis along with the crushing pressure of a deteriorating job environment, and needed to put on the breaks.  That was sixteen years ago.

Now, my wife, whom I met shortly after those events, lives with me as I learn new lessons and at times, take remedials on the same damn topic as I fall out with habits I try to create.  I'm almost 57 now and am having a hard time learning that my health makes a much greater demand on my time than it did when I was younger.  Considering what happened to me, morbid obesity and losing a massive amount of weight, would have covered that, but now I'm coping with other things.

I'll be writing about what I do to cheat the aging process and try to keep up my quality of life, all of which I do with the help of my lady love.

Other things about my life and observations will creep in here as well.  I'll avoid religious and political stuff for the sake of civility.

Again, welcome!
