My weigh in on Weds. was 250. I’ve been there for a while. I haven’t gotten back to the Y as my youngest DD had all her wisdom teeth removed on Thursday. She’s still laid out on the couch today. She’s feeling better but she still looks like a cute little chipmunk. She’s still in some [...]

Short and sweet this morning; I just wanted to say that I dragged my sorry bottom out of bed and went for a 40 minute walk this morning! Yeah! I put my earplugs in and listened to Rebecca St. James album “Worship God”. It was great.  I might go to the Y this evening when I drop [...]
