Sunny Saturday

Good Morning!

What a beautiful morning here in mid-Michigan. . . even though I am looking at it through the window at work it is still beautiful!

I have been slacking on so many things lately but it is time to pull it together.  I have given up flour and the small amount of sugar that I was doing as a way to get my scale moving in the right direction and in two weeks I have lost 8 lbs so I am very happy and plan on continuing to be free of sugar and flour for sometime.  I have been eating better and more aware of my meal plan . . I was getting pretty loose on my eating. . . so back in line now.

My daughter has moved back to Michigan to get her Masters at the U of M this fall so I am enjoying her under foot.  My son is in the second step of a job here in Michigan .  . . I keep praying . . hopefully he will know something in the next two weeks.  My grand-daughter is just a joy in my life!!!!!  I have finally met a guy that lives in the same city as I do . . it has been nice to go to a movie or dinner and have a conversation with someone face to face.  And best of all the new guy at work will be ready to be on his own on August 16th so my long days of overtime are finally coming to an end . . Life is good!!

QOTD:  That is my list of Raves . . . what do you have to rave about today?

Raves:

 I don't go back to wor****il Thursday.

I lost weight on my vacation. That really should not have happened.

I managed to get my son to the airport today.

I will get to have one on one time with my youngest son for the next month. 

I spent less money on my vacation that what I planned. 

Life is good!!!

Afternoon Kristy,

What a beautiful day!  I love summertime  in Michigan. 

I started my day off with a massage, ahhhhhh, that was nice.  Then I came home and re potted a plant, then laid out in the sun, just to make some Vit D of course :).   I just finished lunch (pepper slices, red, orange and yellow and a Chicken Salad sandwich on  Arnold Thins).  In a few I'm going to mow the lawn, best thing about the lack of rain and the hot, hot temps is the back lawn has hardly grown so it should be really easy and fast today.  And that's my raves.... nice relaxing weekend doing whatever I want, just taking it easy.

Kristy I hope you get off those long hours soon, I'd hate to have you miss the whole summer working!

Have a great day MI.

Good morning everyone, well afternoon now ;)

Enjoy the summer and slimmer life!
