Hey guys!
Just hopping on here real quick this morning. Don't have a lot to say......just wanting to report in. Since Monday, I have done my WATP videos twice this week and I have been really good about drinking my water.
I have also stayed within my points every day, so I am feeling pretty good!
Our town is having their yearly Christmas Parade this Saturday night and I am so excited! This is the second year that we have been involved in it in some form. Last year, we drove our car through it. Dh has a 1969 Impala in showcar condition (he's won several trophies with it) and we drove it through last year all decorated up and this year, I was looking forward to being one of the bystanders this year and watching the parade go by......BUT, since Trey was on the All Star Football Team this year, they are being sponsored by M & M Mars and they are going through the parade this year........so I still haven't decided if I will walk the two and a half mile trek with them, or stand on the sidelines with the videotape rolling...... Decisions......decisions.
I think the thing that really excited me is that if I want to walk with them, I CAN. Last year,
WALKING through the Parade would not have even been a consideration, because I wouldn't have even made it half a mile without my back killing me and I would have probably passed out!
Makes me feel good to know that if I want to go, I can!
I've also got another little project planned this weekend. Since my granny and papaw are getting up in years, they can't go out and look at Christmas lights anymore. And they LOVE to go Christmas light looking........my papaw has been really sick lately and has even passed out a couple of times in the last few weeks, so it's not a very good idea to have him out. So, we are making a video tape for them! I'm gonna start out with me (on tape.....yes,
I can do this) giving like a little opening presentation, saying something to the affect of, "Granny, we know how much you like to go out and see the Christmas lights and since you can't go out and see them.....then we are bringing them to you." And then we're going to go to some of the houses here in town that go all out for Christmas and then there are some other places where the whole subdivision (every single house) lights up for Christmas and we're gonna tape that for them too. And then each of the boys will give a personal little message and dh too. I think they will really enjoy it and it will enable me to bring a little bit of something into their lives that they miss. I love them so much.
Well gals, I'm out of here for now. Here's a {{{{hug}}}} for all of you and I will see you later. I only have to work till 1:30 today. Woooo Hoooo!
P.S.
Cathy, once again, I do want to give you a really hearty welcome. You don't know it yet, or maybe you do....... but you have stumbled onto a group of amazing women and I can honestly say I love
them all. I don't know what I would do without them. They are a Godsend.
We can do this.....together. There is not only safety in numbers, but there is STRENGTH.
My co-worker just offered me a chocolate chip cookie.
I told her no. Not once.....not twice, but THREE times before she shut up. Why can't people get a clue? I should go over there and poke her with a pencil.........all 130 pound of her.
