Gail Bless you...
sllllurrrp
Yes! 6 more days! I knew you would help me keep track in case I forgot.
Yesterday was another good day, even though we did end up going out for chinese. I think I might've gone over by 8, I might be calculating things high too. I had steamed dumplings, steamed rice with beef and brocolli, a small serving of lo mein noodles (which I didn't eat all of) and a piece of teriyaki chicken. I could've had some fresh fruit for dessert but I was honestly full. Hubby was impressed with me!
He knows how much I love chinese food. If it were before I wouldn't have given anything a second thought, 2nd and 3rd helpings was the usual. I guess I was impressed with me too.
Today and tonight is definitely going to take some planning. We're having our usual Wednesday night get together with some friends, and they want to come over and order pizza. I'm going to make a HUGE salad to go with it. This is a couple where the woman is excessively unhappy and eats her way through the day. The man is an alcoholic and cracks open a beer for breakfast. Hubby has known this guy for years and years. With me counting points and hubby not drinking a drop you'd think they'd get bored with us, but they keep on comin' back.
The one good thing is they never stay very late. Everyone has to work the next day, so it's always an early night. I think they just like to have someone to talk to other than each other.
So, now that I've rambled on about it, I just wanted y'all to know I'm planning a very low point day and I'll have a generous salad before a slice of pizza. I'm also planning on drinking lots of water today to flush out any extra sodium I might've ingested.
Don'tcha just love a PLAN?
Joyce The college is here, in nearby Radford. VERY good school...she's interested in taking the teaching courses. It's been 2 years since I've seen her. She was here this time of year in 2000, just before Preston was born. So she hasn't met her little nephew yet. It's going to be a big reunion. We all miss her so much.
Sharon Now that I've read what a lizard eats I should've realized before hand. That same friend I mentioned above had a big lizard named Louie, and that's what they were raising to feed him. Louie has since gone to lizard heaven and they had huge tanks full of mice to get rid of.
I believe the local pet shops inherited them.
emmy I've been wearing the no-line bifocals for almost 4 years now. Yes, they took some getting use to.
I'm fine with them now...in fact I use a compact lens in a much smaller frame. With me wearing them it makes is easier to help first time wearers...I give them a few extra hints.
Good for you for staying strong with all the goodies at the Tea!
I'm going to work on that online album soon. If ya wanna see my little sweetheart I could always email a picture to you. It looks like we can't attach pics here like we use to.
Which brings me to....
Gail I think an online album for the
PINK FLAMINGO CAFE would be great. Do you want me to set it up? We can all be responsible for contributing pictures of course! I wanna see all the
PINKIES!
Christine and
Pat You two are doing SO good with your walking! I really have to start moving my butt again. I intended to start the walking tapes again, but just can't find the energy. I know if I DO start then the energy will find me...it's a vicious circle isn't it?
Well it looks like every single
PINKIE is doing so well On Program! What a group!
Okay, gotta hit the shower and decide what I'm going to wear. It's going to be a pretty slow day, I hope I get a chance to peek in later from work.
Repeat after me....
