It is a beautiful evening and I am going to spend a little bit of time working on my gardens. I am suddenly very ambitious - but I know it will expire by the end of July so I better work it while I can.

I came home to find my neighbour tearing up his lawn with a backhoe, surrounded by an admiring crowd of men. It was very funny - he had his own cheering section!

I am proud of myself - I booked 14 days of vacation over the summer! I have some time to carry forward from last year and I have to use it up so I am planning several extra-long weekends. It will be very good to have some time off for myself.

Back on the food log habit, using a little program I downloaded a couple of years ago. I think it is more accurate than the online service I was using, although not as fancy. I am asking myself the questions: what was in the meal I just logged? and Do I want to have to log this? each meal. Nothing new, nothing innovative, just forcing myself to pay attention. And exercise is now the next big thing. I have to move more. I am just ballooning.
