Well, the seventh month is over today. Time for a new goal? I've set one for myself already (tell you in a minute) but I'll go along with any others that are thrown out there.
Girls, I'm freaking out. In an excited, good way....but freaking out nonetheless.
I was talking to my Irishman last night and we've picked a date to meet! See, on New Year's we promised we would get together before the year was out. We talked about it a few times, but something always came up and one of us had other obligations. Last night we decided I'll go there on the Canadian Thanksgiving long weekend (October 8-10). Ten weeks from now. Oh my gawd....ten weeks from now!
I've spent the last number of weeks just getting used to eating regularly, and now that I am used to eating during the day again, it's time to kick it up a notch. I'm setting a goal to lose 15lbs before that weekend. It's doable and I have the best incentive in the world! Hmmm...guess I need to get a scale. Mine died a painful death when it tried to tell me I was 356lbs last year.
I'm going to need all the help I can get, so I'm counting on you all to kick me in the butt when necessary!
anagram, how is DH doing? And you? I have the tiniest of violets growing among my impatiens in the front flower bed....not sure where they came from, but they are determined to remain and seem undaunted by the larger plants. I think of you every time I see them....I must take a picture and show you.
wsw, I hope those thunderstorms brought you some relief from the hot humid weather. They did in my neck of the queendom. It has been lovely here the past few days. I spent much of yesterday sitting on my back deck reading the third book in the Outlander series. Quite a perfect afternoon. My goodness, 7am is EARLY for a test!
Arabella, our travelling
...as wonderful as technology is, isn't it frustrating when it doesn't work properly? Glad you got it sorted. It has been some time since I did yoga regularly...perhaps a mini-challenge to get us both back into it?
Kaylets, you'll blast those 2lbs away as quickly as they snuck up on you. Is your DH looking to change career paths, or just improve on his current one?
Eydie, sorry to hear your Dad took a fall. Did he hurt himself badly? Also sorry to hear the rest of your week wasn't good either....Fresh Start Monday is tomorrow...just hang on!
Frogger...this guy sounds like a real user. What a jerk! You can't go jumping off the wagon just when I am climbing back on....I will strap you in if I have to!
Aria, your commitment is inspiring!
Punkin, how are you?
Where is ceara lately?
Well, I am going to throw some clothes on and go out for a walk. Everything else can wait!
