work a day

Mommy! More ‘nip please!
We start the room makeover today! We made paper cut outs
for the furniture to see
how they will fit together.
Crew is looking alive!
My mother warned me about FibberMcGhee’s closet.
My typical meal – not ideal.
One beer a week. My mind loves it. My heart does not.
Side shot. Duuude – check out my Sternocleidomastoids! And crazy hair. I’ll be 65 in a few months.

my friday, girl

Rainbow in the sky
AI drew me SouthPark style
Perfect sleep with my best girl
This is my best girl.
I sleep on the couch
and she was letting me know
this is HER couch. And I am
the interloper lol
Way back throwback 2013 to 2023 masking up for CV19
How Bitcoin price is calculated
Today is my Friday.
I seldom get weekends off.
That’s ok. By this time next year,
I want to be working just
3 days a week.
Like weekend doubles.

I’m tired, Boss.

Mostly I’m tired of

folks bein’ ugly to each other

And when you take care of teenagers-

that’s what ya get.

on a streak

Every day, we are one day
closer to Paint Day.
Can’t decide between
Everglade Green or
Eggplant Mountain Fig.
Both Sherwin-Williams.

Dark Academia

Hair BnB wakes me
up with slobbers
Yes- this is a weight loss and maintenance blog. But also –
I am one year from retirement!
And i just found Bitcoin.
I have a year of investing under my belt. In High Income Covered Call ETFS – namely YieldMax
Years of trying to get by
– like we all are –
teaches simple living,
and discipline.
During covid I often worked
7 days a week. And spent many nights slepping on a cot at work.

I opened a Gemini account and learned how to trade bitcoin. Back then, it was ~$20,000.

Every overtime shift I picked up went straight to Bitcoin.

Till then, I had very little saved for retirement. (Zero, really)

One thing led to another.
And now these YieldMax ETFS
are my focus!
Little did I know-
my “mad money” hobby
would actually catch on!
And now, I am actually
Able to retire next year!
The scum-bum took off
and whipped the pack!
Sadly, just like with Atkins,
people don’t listen.
They can’t hear.
The answer is right there.
And it’s brand new.
The old ways kept us stuck.
At least- it was for me. BUT! There are very few videos or training courses on covered call ETFs. Mainly – they’re so new!

Maybe I can try my hand at making some videos to help spread the word.

We shall see!
The world is crazy right now,
so it might help someone!

full swing

They always say
when hell freezes over
or when all the planets line up…
Up to about 30 carbs a day.
Helps with cortisol.
Still a fan but now it’s more like Atkins stage 4 – maintenance
Put the low carb wrap
right in the fire.
Now that I know how to knock myself out, I love to sleep.
Just a few years ago, Bitcoin hit 32,000. Now look. $117,000.
So a few nights a week, I get to stay on the couch. And get 4 extra hours sleep a week. Which means more time for charts.
Labor Vs Management
Fake TaTas from packing bubbles. Before and After lol

day off

Not too much work to keep a nice shade garden on the patio.
Bins of dictionaries
Still working on choosing a
paint color.
lol. First grade humor for the win
Trying to find the perfect
dark academia
It reminds me of the paint
you see in the Grand Canyon.
Apple Watch. No sleep apnea.
No missed beats.
Look alive- the boss is here!
Texas heat is no joke.
Before and After!
Just a few minutes working
in the sun is enough.

go go grill

Daytime grilling, nighttime grilling… Texans don’t care
Skirt Steak For Fajitas
Good times with good friends
Finally a day off
Beggin’ for a Treat
I asked AI to draw me having coffee reading the paper. It did this. I am a female. lol. We’re not quite there.
Gotta figure out how to make these pictures smaller. I don’t want to frighten anyone…lol…

grinding away

Hair BnB for an early morning
The world is quieter at 4 am
Shoe covers at the bedside.
I am a Pediatric Nurse
for long term care kids.
I’ve been on Atkins since 2009,
and I have maintained about 100 pound weight loss for 16 years. This was me wearing a size 48 mens pants. Looking all sassy. lol
After covid, however, I became interested in the Stock Market. Especially ETFs. Especially Yield Max High Income ETFs!
Some of these ETFs pay 150% annual returns in dividends!

Or more!

For example. This is PLTY.
YieldMax writes options
on Palentir stock,
and now pays a 125% dividend. Which is $7.40 a share! They publish the amounts on Declaration Day. Then comes Ex-Dividend Day. Then payday!

This is not financial advice! But if you’re looking for a good quick investment, check out YieldMax. And if you’re looking to drop some weight, Atkins might help.

I’m just a Former Fattie who now is learning to invest for my retirement.

lol that’s me.

I asked Chat GPT to draw me and this is what happened. I look like I’m maybe 20!

This is actually me today. I once met up with a Blogger in Canada. When we met she said I didn’t look my pictures! 😳 So I now show
my brave face every day.

For progress and accountability.

Also I do a body shot every week or so. People are curious about Low Carb and Keto, and I want to help get the word out!

Thanks for reading!
This is an exciting journey.
I’m glad for health and wealth!
