FRIDAY--AND A SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT

Weight report: up a pound at home to 128.6; up .09 at T.O.P.S. to 129.4--AAGH!  That means I'm teetering on the very edge of my comfort zone of 130! I'd better shape up or ship out this coming week. Meeting was okay, as usual, but nothing to write home about (one of my mother's expressions). On the way home, Cheryl asked me about my blog (which I had mentioned in the meeting) and she may be looking into it one of these days. 

Home at 10:00, breakfast, then I took a hour's or so nap. This is getting to be a habit, but one I want to break. When I nap, it effects my overnight sleep, which as I've mentioned before, hasn't been ideal. Anyway, I got up, did a few household chores, then went over to Von's for vegetable broth, strawberries, pretzels, cottage cheese, and other uninteresting items. I did, however, get a box of Ferrero Rocher candy as a hostess gift for Carolyn. 

Packed my small suitcase for my overnight stay at Ellen's, then called the Access Van to take me there. Made my lunch and, since they're working on the sprinkler systems in the middle, took it to one of the table/umbrella areas here and there in the complex. Ate while I read my book, then went back home. I ran into Suzanne as she was also coming in and for chatted for fifteen or so. Told her I'd be at Ellen's over Saturday night and asked her to slip my Sunday paper under the doormat. 

I spent some time slicing the nice fresh strawberries. I stowed them in the freezer, then cored and seasoned two big apples, and baked them in the oven. Ate one during my hour T.V.-watch and boy, was it good.   

So what kind of ★SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT★ is Mimi talking about? It's this: I won't be posting here tomorrow, as I'm staying over at Ellen's and it's just too much of a hassle to bring my laptop and the crapola that goes with it. I'll add my combined entry covering my Saturday Santa Barbara sojourn and Sunday at Ellen's when I get back.  Hoppity-Hop, ya' all!

FRIDAY--I'M IN AND SO IS THE GESTOPO

Hey, I gotta say, it wasn't a bad day. Home, I had lost 1.2  (to 129.4) and at T.O.P.S., I was down 1.1 to 130.2. Incredibly, I was the ...
