Weigh In

[Guest guest]

Good Morning losers!

Good luck at your doctor's appointments. I always find it stressful to be

poked and prodded. I'll make myself go in Jan. which will be 13 months

since my last pap and check up. Blech. I'll be 40 then so I'll get a

baseline mammogram. I've had several in the past for various lumps and

bumps and it's always unpleasant but nothing compared to a pelvic. Sheesh.

I saw my doc for a hand follow up the day after I went to the ER but they

didn't weigh me. My bp was great though. That was a surprise since I was

resigned to finally going on meds for it. Hopefully it will be good in Jan.

too.

I had a pleasant surprise this morning. I lost a pound this week. I was

relieved since I was on plan for 4 days and off plan for 3 days. We even

went out for Tex Mex on Sat. If I hadn't gotten demoralized due to the

scale not moving by Thurs. I would have done even better. Oh well. A gain

might have kept me off plan but a loss is motivating. I know it would be

better if it were the opposite but now I feel renewed motivation.

I'm getting back on my bike today. I'll take Lynn to school by bike then

Vonn and I will head to playgroup. It's at a woman's home with 6 acres and

the house is modeled on Monticello. It's amazing. Some of my friends'

homes make me embarrassed to have people over here. I love our house but

the garage sale furniture has to go! We'll bring a 2.5 year old girl home

with us for a few hours. I'll be making $10 per hour which will be some

nice spending money if I can watch her a few more times. She plays very

nicely with Vonn and is a mellow kid so I think it will work out nicely.

I'll put both of them in the bike trailer when we go pick up Lynn this

afternoon. We'll probably hit the park for a while after that. I'll be

exhausted tonight.

Gotta get Vonn up and do Lynn's hair. It's really hard to pull her hair

back with a bandaged hand! We're growing out her bangs so it hangs in her

face if we don't do something with it. When we get back from taking her

I'll have to pack lunches for playgroup. I'll pack a sandwich if the

lettuce is funky and I can't pack a salad. Tonight is meet the teacher

night at Lynn's school. I'm so glad that she loves first grade.
