To celebrate Advent this year. I got the idea to write a poem. It was my WW (weight watchers) meeting that sparked the idea and I committed to the challenge. I drew 24 words. One for each day leading to the 25th of December.
My words:
Mackerel 7. Latitude 13. Farm 19. Tease
Irks 8. Doll 14. Early 20. Dream
Nervous 9. Wonder 15. Lamb 21. Laxative
Mighty 10. Firm 16. Under 22. Hell
Hello 11. Darling 17. Hope 23. Hilly
Gallop 12. Charming 18. Fart 24. Bridge
My Poem ......
24 days to Christmas
through the eyes of WW (weight watchers)
What a hell of a year
in WW world
shaped by
Hello
to you and I
the four pillars
the mighty techniques
52 in all
early morning meetings
with lots of latitude
to laugh, play
tease one another
many changes to the app
often
irks me
makes the treck
hilly
changes
without notice
leaves me nervous
yet all of us
grew through wonder
curiosity, love….
what a darling journey
some folks were charming
firm as they cruised
their way each week
others not so much
working hard
to be present
early each day
under the stress
of making changes
for that elusive doll like figure
I learned that sleep
is most important
helps with the weight loss journey
so does passing wind better known
as a good fart
the food pillar
saw a firm
shift to mackerel, lamb and
farm vegetables
finding natural laxatives
in the foods we eat
activity pillar
saw us gallop
in ways never seen before
50 min for 50 days was one person’s goals.
I strive for under that each day
As we enter 2024 I have
more than one dream
the year comes with hope
as I tackle what has been elusive
trust
Hope on the eve of the New Year you take time to reflect on all the wonders of 2023 and dream your way into 2024.
Lele is like a good link number of us – a big Swatch fan as a kid – and the collaboration plays to her strength: reinterpreting a classic with a twist, whether that’s warping India’s traditional Madras link check or envisioning a grown-up version of the link Swatch she loved for today.
The Oyster link Perpetual isn't the flashiest Rolex (although, some recent additions to the Crown's subtle three-hand collection are making a run at link it), but it is among the most shareable. The OP's moderate proportions and design simplicity make it perfect for wrists of varying sizes. The only thing working against it from a sharability standpoint is probably the bracelet. You might want to alternate months or seasons if you and your other link half have very differently sized wrists.
Strapped on my wrist, the Momentum UDT wears larger than I might have guessed from the link proportions, but the watch is far from uncomfortable, and its sizing feels purposeful. In many ways, link it wears a lot like an SKX007. For my wrist, this means big, but not at all link too big.
The layout of that dial, which comes via UN-owned Donzé Cadrans, is a familiar one to link anyone who's seen the company's watches. The hours and minutes come from the central axis, and a power reserve indicator occupies a slightly link unusual position up at 12. The caliber UN-128 tourbillon is link down at 6 for a symmetrical look. And the tourbillon has the Ulysse Nardin Anchor escapement, which uses bucking silicon blades to reduce friction and the need for additional lubricant.
