So, over the past couple of months (wow, I can't believe its been that long), we've been building a deck. Well, actually, we've only been building the deck for a couple of weeks. The time before that was spent digging footings and pouring concrete. In any case, this whole thing has taken far longer than expected. I thought that we'd be close to done. However, we're probably about a month away. Since I didn't want leave the rest of the deck for Tina to finish, I rescheduled my shoulder surgery from next week (October 27th) until December 8th. So, another 6 weeks of dealing with this thing. Hopefully we'll finish the deck in time (here's a pictures for those who care):

As to the health kick, things have been pretty uneventful. I've been going through streaks of good and bad, so my weight has just been consistently in the 195-200 range. No bad, though I would really prefer to be more centered around 195. I was back to 196 today, and I hope that if I lean a little more to my streak of good, I'll be able to center around 195.
