A Family Tradition.

Sunday:  no weigh-in, burned 2822 calories, consumed 1435.
Today:  275.4 lbs., Activities:  None, unless fighting with your teenage daughter counts.

It rained tonight so I didn’t go out for a bike ride — and I just didn’t feel like riding the exercise bike today.  On another day I would have scolded myself, “It doesn’t matter what you feel like, Eileen, get off your ass and do it!” but today I was a bit distracted by my eighteen-year-old daughter.  *Sigh*  Why does the route to adulthood for girls require such drama and general nastiness along the way???

I know my mother cursed me.  I remember her speaking the words of the magic spell, the same spell I have, in turn, cast upon my own daughter.  It goes something like this:

“You shall, for payment in return, someday have a child just like yourself.”

*Wicked, evil laugh*
