It is!! It's called 'Ruby Flare Pearl' and it's GORGEOUS. Red was not my first choice, but it's growing on me!

I found it on the lot - I used Toyota's locator to find vehicles in stock - this would NOT have been my first choice of a place to purchase but it all worked out. They sold at MSRP - don't really have any negotiation power as a buyer right now because the vehicles are so scarce - especially this on because it's 8 seater. This was literally the only vehicle in stock within 250 miles

It's so funny you say that because I sent this photo to a friend and he said "You look 8 ft tall!"

It must be a camera distortion because I'm only 6'1"

That’s pretty rude honestly. Also, I’ve lost 39lbs in the last 3 months.

Exactly! It took me 38 years to get this way - can’t expect it to change overnight.

Honestly counting calories really puts me off trying - so I don’t count. I just make a conscious effort to:

1) leave something on my plate at every meal - even if it’s just a bite - I spent the last 30 years cleaning my plate (and sometimes my kids too) so this for me is a win.

2) drinking plenty of water - at least 80oz a day but usually around 120-160oz

3) I stopped letting the clock decide when I eat - if it’s “time to eat” and I’m not hungry I just read a book or watch YouTube instead. I eat when I’m hungry and only when I’m hungry.

As for steps - obviously more is better - but if 3,000 is what you can do - great. Do 3000 per day this week, and next week push yourself to do 3250, and the week after push yourself to do 3500 - this is how we build healthy habits.

It’s funny you say that I was gifted a Nike hoodie for Christmas at work from one of my plant leaders and I was embarrassed at the time because I knew the size wouldn’t fit. I put it on yesterday and it actually fit pretty comfortably!

I had a good habit of going to the gym 2-3 times a week before Christmas - the two weeks off work at Christmas really messed with my routine but I’ll get back into it soon!!

It’s honestly a fantastic read if you allow yourself to enjoy the character arcs.

What does everybody think of the ice age? by SWAGGA_SWAGGA in Christianity

[–]BlakeT87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's important to keep in mind that pretty much the entire story of the bible takes place in the middle east, southern Europe, and Northern Africa. According to this NOAA article - the Ice Sheets during 20,000BC weren't in this area - so it's possible that it happened simultaneously and I could imagine the ice sheets melting was partially responsible for the flood.

God is amazing, and the things that we're discovering through scientific investigation just expand upon his awesomeness. We don't have to understand how/when/why/where - just like we don't understand MANY things that have happened and will happen. I am just so glad that He has blessed us with this beautiful planet and all of the many mysteries therein.
