Checking in on Monday, September 14, 2015

I'm off today...back on track after not being on track for a couple of days...my scale reflects that.  I'm okay with that.  The great news in all of this is that I return to healthy eating and don't wait days, weeks or months anymore.  

Hard workout today.  Puttering around the house.  Hand bell rehearsal.  

Happy Monday!!!

still at 125. gallery work today and business was slow. awesome new show to look at.   diane

You play hand bells!!!!!????? AWESOME! I love hand bells. Is it for church or do you belong to a group? I don't think people realize that each hand bell instrumentalist must play the entire piece in his/her head, have an incredible sense of meter and anticipate each note and work in synchronicity with the other players.

Long dog show weekend. Came out the other side exactly where I was last Wednesday, which is 100% awesome in my book. I had some disappointing days (Blue was reserve Queen pretty much the entire weekend - only got a point in 4 days of showing. Booooo.) On the upside, I showed my little 13 month old Ella for practice before the Nationals in October. She ended up beating a Champion Airedale and won Best of Breed and a 5 point major (Diane knows what that means).

I'm in a hand bell group at my church.  We rehearse every Monday evening and perform several times during the year.  We take off in the summer.  It's something I joined with my husband so I can feel like I am a part of his world musically.  I don't read music which is against me but everyone is very kind and helpful.  Andy (husband )marks my music.  I have learned so much.  It's good for the brain.  I do enjoy it very much!!!  It's challenges me!

Yay! for maintaining your weight the weekend.  I am back down so I am  happy with that :)  Sorry for the disappointing days but happy for Ella.  What a cute name!!!  I had French Bull Dogs growing up and Poodles as an adult.  No doggies right now but plan to after I retire...

Have a great week!!!
