Hey!
I was in here earlier but my post got lost. Made me so angry I had to walk away from the computer.
I had a great time yesterday with my oldest daughter. We always have a great time shopping!
Y'all would've been proud of me--I ate like a thin person. I watched my daughter eat and followed her example. We ate lunch at The Cheesecake Factory (I bet that just got y'all's attention!) and had a fantastic lunch! I had Herbed Crusted Salmon on a bed of mixed salad greens, with freshly steamed asparagus...along with some iced tea sweetened with mango juice. Gosh, THAT was such a great lunch. I ate all of the salmon (it was served cold, btw) but couldn't finish the huge salad. It was HUGE! Afterwards, Heather asked me I were going to have cheesecake so we decided to split a slice...and neither one of could finish our half of the slice! <holding hand over heart> Honest truth! I couldn't finish it!
And then we walked for two hours.
I went to WW this morning. EARLY. I left the house at 6:30am to attend the 7:00am meeting. Sooooo glad I went and so glad I stayed for the meeting. First of all, I did have a gain but it was hardly a half pound and I'll have that off easy this week. Considering all that I ate last weekend (remember that FRIED food?) and my tummy being so upset (bloated and crampy) last Tuesday, I was very happy with that. Thought I would never say that about a gain! Anyway, I'm back in control.
Sharon, you know Wayne doesn't like to go the mall...so NO, he did not go with Heather and me shopping!
This mall is actually two double-decker malls connected by a cross-walk. A big
CONGRATULATIONS to you on losing another 1.2 lbs.!!! And you were so nervous about going! (((HUG))) That's wonderful! I'm thrilled for you!
Maggie, I hadn't planned on buying anything significant yesterday...and I didn't. Oh I saw plenty of gorgeous clothes but they're all for spring or summer and I'm not ready for that yet! However...I did buy some gorgous recipe cards from The Lang Store...and some MAC makeup from Nordstrom's. Heather did find a great buy in Banana Republic--a rib knit turtleneck sweater with buttons down the side. Very cute. Of course anything looks cute on her--she wears a size 6! She didn't spend that much money either...but we had a great time browsing and chattering away! OH! I'm back on The Wendie Plan! So, you've got your partner back!
How ya doin'? Just love those numbers you've lost! Gosh, you're doing great! Golly, you had quite a day yesterday too! Avocados and baby goats! I've never eaten an avocado--I know, I know--I've led a sheltered life! And I know what a deer can do to a car? Would you believe I've seen a deer wander into our FRONT YARD? Sure have...late at night...right by the mailbox!
Jean, ohmigosh...snow! Hmmm...I'd want to go to Maui too! Have you "found" them yet? Has Jason and Amanda got there yet? I'm sure they have by now! We're supposed to get a lot of rain here tonight and into tomorrow. Which I'm very glad to have--we're just about going into a drought here. Well, I told Wayne that IF his dad married this lady then he would gain FOUR step-siblings--he wouldn't be an "only" anymore! But I really think Wayne would be hurt if his dad just up and got married and didn't tell him beforehand--Wayne would want to be there.
Well...this post is long...they usually are, huh?
