Good morning all,

Hope you have a nice lunch today Tanya. Busy day today. Off shortly for a walk with the dog. Need to pick up some things while we are out. I am off to a baby shower today. I have not been looking forward to this. It is being held by my son's girlfriend for her cousin. Since my son and his girlfriend live together she wants to include me in her family events. I do not enjoy situations where I do not know people. It tends to make me anxious. So I am psyching myself up for this. It starts with the will I wear an appropriate outfit, did I buy the right gift, will I remember names. His girlfriend suggested I have some wine but that is not going to happen. It is over an hour away by car. I can not drink and drive even with only one. It just hits me too hard. So I have left calories for this afternoon since I have no idea what I will eat.

b greek yogurt, granola, blueberries, toast

l pure protein bar, yogurt

s ?

d chicken, squash, salad

I forgot my fitbit yesterday so must remember it today

cal 678, carb 66.3, prot 69.9

I hate showers Pat....and I really dislike giving up my Saturday or Sunday to go.....and you don't know this person....I really feel for you....you are trapped into it!....hopefully you sit by someone you can have a conversation with.....and I totally agree with you in not having a glass of wine.....white wine especially hits me hard.....

I hope you can escape shortly after the food is served.....

Thanks. It is definitely taking up my whole day. Just came back from my walk whi*****luded buying a new top and a bag for the gift. Since it is almost an hour away I nee to leave by shortly after 12:00

I hate them too. Nothing I hate more than having to sit in a room with a bunch of people I don't know (other than work and support group stuff, surprisingly I find that enjoyable and very easy) and buy a gift that I feel has no meaning at all, forced.

Barb, if you're "passing through" my way sometime, please let me know. I'll treat for lunch. :)

Afternoon all,

Tanya I'm so glad to hear you made it through yesterday okay - it sounds like you're grounded and focused and I'm proud of you. What you're going through is hard. You can do hard things.

Had terrible news yesterday - my friend's 20 year old daughter was found dead in a pool. Sorry to be so blunt, but I don't know how to make it pretty. And I learned of Joy's death today and quite frankly, I just feel a little lost. I get focused on my own life sometimes and when others' lives come crashing in I'm at a loss to know how to do anything other than try to be a good friend. Onward and upward.

Going to a party shortly with Andrew - our friend has an annual pig roast and it's always a blast. Hope to go swimming, as she has a pool! Then I second guess myself that I look fat in my bathing suit. HAHAHA What an idiot I can be, how to you make 120 pounds look fat, seriously??
