Dear Diary Monday...

Happy Day off to everyone!!!

The weekend was pretty darn good. Toni and Rob had us over for dinner this last weekend and it was superb. We spent the night with the Tonster, Robert, Shane and Chet and just relaxed and had probably the most awesome scalloped potatos I have ever consumed....and I consumed a lot of them!

I also spent a lot of my weekend doing yard work and house work. It was nice getting some rooms in order and I also have started decorating the inside of the house for Fall. There is just something about getting out those decorations that makes life worth living.

Last night we went to dinner with Dylan's folks to Spaghetti Mama's and it was a good evening. The food and company were both wonderful and relaxing.

This last week and weekend have been a bit hard on my emotionally and a lot of that has to do with my PERIOD. I have been horribly bloated and just in that "feeling fat" stage and I hate it. I went to my weight in and have put on more than half of the weight that I have taken off. I am back to my Weight Watchers with a vengance now and am also incorporating into it the "eat less, work out more" train of thought to see if I can get a handle on my "physical expansion". To sum it up, I just feel like a big fat cow all of the time now and I need to get a handle on the bad attitude, as it is effecting most every aspect of my life. Just once I would like to look in the mirror and think, "WOW you have lost weight and are looking fabulous and beautiful" but right now, I just can't realistically do that.

Oh well, new day, new week......

Oh and much love out to my blog friend Pam who is losing her Daddy to cancer. Pam, remember we are all here for you even though you are on a totally different continent. Our hearts, our prayers, our energy, and our love are here for you and your family.
