Friday's Just For Fun post for Happy_Camper

I believe she has gone away for the next 2 weekends and I hope she is having a great time.
I was having a hard time coming up with questions but have come up with these.

1. What is your favorite child hood memory?
2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer?
3. Victories/Obstacles this past week?


Favorite childhood memory, was when my father was stationed in Sardinia, Italy. Had the best food and people ever. I remember the waters being so clear and blue. It was just so wonderful.

Fav thing to do during the summer, swim! We put our pool in last summer and it contributed to a 20 pound weight loss before surgery. It was just amazing, I love my pool and swimming.

Victories, the tubes being out and I have been able to move more comfortably. I have been able to walk and garden and mow grass. It has been WONDERFUL... Obstacles, my grumpy tummy. I will get past it and make my belly like me again LOL...


Next...

1. Can't really think of many-how sad!
2. Read trashy novels
3. Traveled with GPS to two new clients this week.  One is in Miami and I managed to drive  without going into a panic :)
Still struggling with mindless eating but got a wake-up call last night when I think I dumped.  Served me right and may have taught me a lesson.  Well, today is a new day...

1. What is your favorite child hood memory?
Swimming in my grandparents pool and having my grandpa 'judge' my swimming routine
Or (I was a young adult) traveling europe and taking in the pure beauty of the things I was seeing..remember passing a giant field of sunflowers, laying eyes on the Pita.  Amazing!
2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer?
Swimming or Sitting at outside near a fire chatting (before weightloss; endulging in smores occassionally)
3. Victories/Obstacles this past week?
Family issues!  They have just worn me out, and I feel a tad defeated. 

1. What is your favorite child hood memory?
Favorite childhood memory...going to the beach for a week and sleeping on the sleeping porch of a beach house.
2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer? Go to the mountains, which is why we live in them now year round. :)
3. Victories/Obstacles this past week? Victory, my size 10 pants are getting "bigger". and obstacle, the darn scale is STUCK!!! LOL.

1. What is your favorite child hood memory? we were members of a camping club and would spend our summers there - I had the best time during my "formative teen years" and I know it did wonders for my self-esteem.  My youngest memory is of my dad taking me to the Drs to get a shot and told me if I didn't cry he'd buy me a doll at Kresge's (I even remember the road and driving by the store).  I didn't cry, and he forgot my doll and I reminded him.  When I told my mom she couldn't believe it - she said "do you know how old you were"?  I said no, she said "18 months old"
2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer? Sit on an outside patio, listening to music, dancing, having drinks and dinner with good friends.  Pretty much anthing outside..
3. Victories/Obstacles this past week? I didn't gain weight....

1. What is your favorite child hood memory?
The time I spent with my family.  My parents made sure we experienced the world and got to spend time with our extended family.  I loved baking with my grandmothers.

2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer?
Lay around the pool with my friends.  We usually have friends over a few times a month to BBQ and float. 

3. Victories/Obstacles this past week?
Not my best travel week.  I'm not losing weight.  It has been a month without a scale budge.  It is my own fault.  I need to get back to basics and be better at tracking my food. DH was out of town.  My life is out of balance when he isn't home. 

1. What is your favorite child hood memory? Saturday's at the lake water sking, family vacations and summer church activities.



2. What is your favorite thing to do during the summer? walk on a beach at night..summer seems to get too hot now.  I like the breeze on cooler nights.  We like to camp when it is not too hot.

3. Victories/Obstacles this past week? Went to first meeting pre-surgery

When I was young, I thought:
Maresy doats and doesie doats
and little lambsidivie

Now, I know:

Mares eat oats and

little lambs eat ivy
kids will eat ivy to
wouldn't you?

Hope all of you have a really good weekend.

1.  Favorite childhood memory.
Spending time at the lake and being at the barn. 
2.  Summer thing 
Driving the ponies if it isn't too hot, camping, gardening
3.  Victories.  I made it to my surgeon's goal.  Woo hoo.
Obstacles. Still dealing with my knee.  The chriopractor today said he thought I was going to need a knee replacement.  I guess after this show I'll get a referral to the ortho guy and at least find out what needs to be done.

1) We lived near Myrtle Beach when I was little and I think my fondest memories are when the extended family would go down there and stay for a week. One of my very earliest memories is walking along the pier with my great grandfather.

2) I like to go outside and walk regardless of the weather, and when it's hot and humid, I like to come in to a cool house or office and just go, ahhhh.

3) I guess still maintaining is a victory.
