The Life and Times...

My friend adores the Chinese Proverb: May you live in interesting times. In fact, she too has that on her blog. I want to adopt it...We all definitely live in interesting times whether they are fabulous, exhausting or jinxed. No matter what, let us all live like there is "No Day but Today!"

Death and Taxes...

The only things in the world you can be certain of! URGH!

I don't much like either one!

In other news...

I lost 4 more pounds this week. I am now down 37 in 13 weeks. I think this is also measure day (I do that every 4th week) and if it is, I will report on the news.

I hope everyone doesn't hate getting Weight Watcher updates from me on my blog...It is what it is...They are going to be on here!

Also, the big game is in less than 3 days now because it is after 3:30. I am so excited! Go 'EERS!

Have a great day!

Apologies Forthcoming...

I realized today when I saw I had a comment from my vacation post...in which I was on over a week ago...that I have let one of my loyal readers down. I do apologize, as I do not want any of my 3 readers to stop coming back for more! I promise to make amends and blog more regularly.

Lets catch up...

1 - I was on vacation in Orlando, FL. We had so much fun in the sun. I got a "what the pasty white girl calls" tan and never got burnt - quiet the accomplishment for me actually! Furthermore, I finally got to eat at Emeril's in Orlando. Truthfully, I would not care if it was Emeril's in Orlando or ATL or New Orleans...I was just wanting to dine with Emeril. WOW - and that is about all I can say about that. I have never in my life been so impressed with wait staff. They were awesome and the food was grand. NO JOKE - You have to go there is you ever get the chance!

2 - I still lost weight while on vacation and while eating at Emeril's. Of course, I only lost 4 lbs while I was out, but in 2 weeks, that is 2 lbs a week and keeps me right on course.

3 - After coming home, I am not doing so well on WW. I feel saddened by my weigh-in this week. I only lost 1 lb. I knew this was going to happen eventually, but OH, not so soon. I want the weight to melt off of me and I want to me skinny (not twiggy model scary skinny - skinny to me) yesterday. Alas, I push on and try harder. There is no excuse and tomorrow is always a new day. I think the big problem with this lack of weight loss is that I had a week with a HUGE lack of exercise. NOT GOOD! I need to get my arse back into the gym and stop not wanting to go. Ok, you know I may not stop wanting to go, but I have to stop listening to those "you could sleep an hour longer" or "you other things that have to be done" thoughts of self-discouragement. (I think I may have just made up that word too...?)

4 - I started a new job too as the...well, I don't really have a title yet. We are supposedly going to determine that before next Tuesday when it is announced at our sales meeting. I will post with that news next week.

So, it is official - I am back. Please continue to tune in and I will continue to do better with my blog - update update update!

BTW, Nana, good luck with the move - I will be thinking of you. I know how icky moving can be but it is so rewarding afterwards!

Vacation!!!!!

I am so excited to be on vacation. We are in Orlando for a week of fun and relaxation. Today, we went to the Animal Kingdom at Disney. It was really cool. Unfortunately, it is HOT HOT HOT! I mean really...So hot you just drip sweat all day long. Tiffany isn't feeling well right now. I think it may be the heat.

Anyway, off to the pool...If only this could be my life every day of the year!
