Happy THursday...and FINALLY !!!!
Little Liam is precious! I love baby pictures.
Finally back home again. It felt good to soak in the hot tub last night, and then to sleep in my own bed again. Not that it's not "my own bed" at the lakehouse, too, but you know what I mean. It's good to be home.
Couldn't wait to get on the scales this morning. I lost about 2 1/2 pounds while we were gone last week! Hurray! And now that we are home, I can walk on my treadmill again. I'm ready to get through the 230's and down into the 220's again.
Had an incident with clothes shopping while I was gone that messed with my head. I forgot to pack any pajamas for the lakehouse, and since we were having company, I decided I couldn't just sleep in an old tee shirt. I made a vow not to buy anymore new clothes while I'm losing, but okay, I figured I could pick up a pair of jammies at Wal Mart.
So I don't really know what size I am right now, but I bought a pair of size 20-22 jammies. Got home, tried them on, and they were SO TIGHT! It was crazy. I KNOW I am wearing size 20 capris right now, so why are these pj's too tight?
Anyway, I go back to Wal Mart the next day and I buy another pair of jammies, only by a different manufacturer, and I buy that damn ol' size 3x again. Very depressing. I get home, try them on, and they're falling off of me. I had to pin the pants tighter with safety pins to keep them on!
I finally looked at the manufacturers and the too tight jammies were made in China by Disney company. I guess the Chinese don't know American sizes very well. I would say those size 20-22 pjs are more like a size 16-18. Just FYI. I kept them, though. When the day comes that THOSE jammies are falling off of me, then I'll know my WLS has been a success!!!
SO much to do today. I need to fix some oatmeal, take my shower, and then get after it. Hope everyone is doing well. Monica, how're you doing, hon? Margaret, you doing okay now? Pat, you take it easy while you recover. Y'all take care of yourselves!

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

Hi Marcy and my OFF family:
Well, it's after 1 p.m. and I'm still in my jammies ... spent an hour on the phone with my friend Mary Kay and now I have to get going with laundry soon. But nice to have someone to chat with ... I was feeling kinda down and lonely yesterday.
Didn't do much yesterday ... not even laundry. Eventually, I went out and picked up my prescriptions and stopped and got a rotisserie chicken and a few other things at the store. Stayed up til nearly 2 watching the Red Sox game ... but fell asleep before the end (extra inning game). My White Sox are really lousy this year ... can't hit worth a damn.
Well, not much else going on here. Got to get laundry going. Marcy, the baby is precious. Have a good day.
