Today's weight
Last week I was 205 and this week I am 205. Not bad considering:
No working out
No drinking water
Smores on the camp-out
Twizzlers on the camp-put
3 (at least) handfulls of chocolate chips last night
Fried pickles and fried corn fritters (PS, I bought Brian a fryer for his birthday and the man is in heaven. I did tell him that this can not be an everyday thing. He has made fries and other stuff that I haven't eaten, so that's a good thing)
No wonder I'm a fat ass!

My new favorite site
So, I am addicted. I can spend hours on this site. It is the new place for me to get gifts. Yes, I could make most of them myself, but who has the time?
This is what I bought Beth and Sarah. Only I got 30 stems for each of them. Beths is the same blue shades as this one (came today) and Sarahs will be pink, green and white (should be here in a week or so). I am so excited and I know that they will love them. Find some for yourself at http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=6110044
I also got a bunch of hair clips for Reagan, they aren't here yet but I know I will love them.

Hello there friends...
*NOTE: I just updated CVS Link below with all photos now...sorry about that. 5/21/09 3:05pm :o)
Sorry I have not posted in a while. I am a slacker! Kirk has been traveling like crazy. He is away this week in TX and next week in OH. Next week will be the third week this month he has been away. No fun but, it should slow down after June. Fingers Crossed :o). Not too much new to report...have been keeping busy at work and home, taking GM to Dr appts, hitting the gym, ADA meetings etc. Also, been helping with coordinating an engagement bbq for my friend Jaimie. Her parents are doing most but, the bridesmaids are helping too. You may recall Jaimie was my running buddy and she is my co-worker. I am a bridesmaid in her wedding set for March 14th in Miami...so Turn you will have some visitors in March 2010 :o).
We had a wonderful trip to Amelia with Blain and Loretta. I posted pics on facebook but, I will post a link here too in case you want to see the rest of pics.

It was so nice being together and just hanging out. It was good for everyone. B & L are planning to move to Toronto summer of 2010. We figured soon they would move east. Wish they would move here but, at least they will be closer and in same time zone. They just would like to be near family and buy a home and that isnt happening in LA. So, it will be good for everyone...we can just fly to Buffalo and drive to toronto. They can get cheaper flts from buff here too. JP and Lucy are also moving for 2 years to New Zealand where Lucy's family is from...Lucy needs to finish getting her teaching certifications and it is just easier there. That was a big surprise. Anyway, we did our best to make Mother's day special for GM...tough day for everyone. I really miss my Mom...it doesn't ever go away. We went swimming at her house and did a mexican theme dinner - taco bar to flan. JP and Lucy were there too.
Not much else new. No plans for memorial weekend as Kirk leaves on Monday early afternoon. I think Dad will have GM and I over on Monday. Saturday we will probably hit the WP farmers market (we have been doing that a lot lately on Sat mornings...the fruit/veggies are much cheaper than publix and they have these awesome veggie bagel sandwiches that we get...yum!). We may also do some planting...our petunias have had it. So, time for a change.
Looking forward to our July 4th weekend...I will update you as soon as Kirsten hears back from her friend. We will keep you posted. Have a fabulous 3 day weekend and keep in touch buds!
Love you XOXO
PS - Paula's Sous Chefs site is up and running - Saturday, Nov 14th is the date this fall! ;o)

Today's weight
SOOOOO, Mother's Day was so yummy that I didn't lose any weight this week. Plus, I also started my period this morning, so I am praying that there is a lot of water weight hanging around and next Friday I will smoke them all and hopefully drop 5 lbs or more.

The girl loves to be outside
This is Reagan at the beach last weekend when Tanya and John stopped in for a visit. She had so much fun and totally did not want to get out of the water. She is fearless and I love that about her, but it is a little scary at times.
This is us in St. Augustine for Mother's Day. Yes, we are both eating ice cream and no it is not on my diet. I will seriously have to make up for this weekend by doing some major excercise.
Today we went to the Eagle Harbor pool and Reagan had a blast. They have a huge water slide, much like the ones at an amusement park. I think we went down it at least 20-25 times. That means I walked up about a million stairs.
That face, I love it and just want to eat it up! "Nail"ed it
I have fingernails! Actual long ones without fake ones on top! Can you believe it? I had fake ones a bit ago but just let them grow out and for some reason I am not biting them!! HA HA
I actually had to call my mom and ask her how to give myself a manicure! So funny!
My goal--try to keep them 7 weeks until we all see each other.
Wish me luck!

I hate the scale
Last Friday: 212
Today: 209
I know, it's still a loss, but I was hoping for more. This week, I am going to start exercising.

Biggest Loser
I have finally gotten my butt in gear and I have a plan to loose 40 lbs by September 11th. My buddies at the CCSA (pottery peeps) have started a Biggest Loser CCSA and I have joined. We are going to weigh ourselves every Friday and post our weights. There will be a final weigh-in on the first day of convention, which happens to be September 11th. Wish me luck because the winner gets a piece of artwork from each contestant and there are 40 people signed up. Won't my stores be rocking with all those new samples!!!!! I am really going to do it this time, not just for the artwork, but also for Reagan. I don't want her to be the kid with the fat mom when she goes to school. So, to keep myself double in check, I am also going to post my progress on this blog, so today, I weighed in at 212.5. Faint...pass out....
