Fortified with Insanity!




I have not been sick for almost a year now. My improved good health has nothing to do with flu shots, or radical changes in my workout routines. It is based upon nutrition and various supplements. During the Thanksgiving break several of my naysaying children happened to witness my morning routine of vitamin imbibition and used terms such as "extreme," "wasteful" and even "dangerous" to describe it. I call it "fortification." Now most of the loyal readers of Darrell's Yakimania know that one of my most famous mottos is "Anything worth doing, is worth Overdoing!"




I was talking with my oldest daughter Darcee recently and was she was complaining that everyone in her house was sick, except Keith fortunately. I think she marveled when I explained that because I am fortified I never get sick anymore. Her reply, "Dad, the only thing you're fortified with is insanity!" Of course, I took her remark as a rave accolade--I'm pretty sure that's how she meant it. Regardless, while the rest of my friends and family members are struggling with colds and flu symptoms this winter, I am going to continue to work out without hinder or interference from nasty little bugs. My secret fortification? Insanity!



Because many of my loyal readers are likely interested in what my morning fortification routine looks like, I have posted a picture of the supplements I am currently taking.

I think you might be "fortified" with something more then insanity. Is this really a good idea? PS. Welcome back to the blogging world!

Do I spy a little Viagra in there? I think you should be careful when you take it on the mountain again or else no one will brave a two man tent with you ever again.

So glad to see you blogging again, Even if you are fortified with insanity. Who isn't in our family?

I stay healthy this time of year by fortifying myself with a glass of egg nog, morning and night. It's a lot more enjoyable than all of that stuff.
