172. 1 lb up from last week. Boo. Understandable considering the last 3 days. Friday... date night with DH. Saturday... bithday party and dinner over at S house. Sunday... Super Bowl dinner at my dad's.

I'm going to have to reevaluate the 6 lb goal.

So... So much for blogging daily. I was using this blog to vent and work through some things. I suppose I haven't been holding onto things quite as long. That's certainly not a bad thing.

I had a good day today. We had co-op classes and then I went grocery shopping. I dropped my eggs while loading up the groceries, so I ended up having scrambled eggs for lunch. LOL.

DD had her tap and jazz class tonight. I sat in the lobby and searched the net for little different colored icons to use on my blogs. I guess I'll add those here, too.

Time to get back to watching CSI NY. I taped it last night and have a chance to catch up on viewing tonight.

Does anyone else still use their VCR to tape shows? I can't be the only one who's never had nor can afford DVR.

171! I am officially 30 lbs down AND I made my challege goal of 5 lbs that I set for myself 2 weeks ago.

I can't wait for the scale to say 16_. It's so close. It's been forever since I've been in the 160's. Soon I'll be able to take out the boxes of clothes under my bed and be able to wear some of them.

Because Feb. is a short month I think I'll challege myself to lose 6 lbs before the end of the month, that will take me down to 165. It's doable but I'll have to add the exercise back in and really watch not just how much I'm eating but what I'm eating. No reason to have a challene that isn't actually a challege.

172. 3 lbs down from last week. How in the world did that happen? I only exercised a few days and a few days I went over on calories or didn't even count them at all. My body was just obviously ready to let those 3 lbs go.

I've just been so ubber busy working with my new blogs that I haven't posted here for a few days.

Nothing new to talk about... it's pretty much the same old thing around here. I've been spending most of my days working on my blogs and my evenings running DD to her classes.

The new session of tennis lessons start tonight. That will be about $400. Ouch. It only comes to about $22 per class but since we are not members of the club where they are given, then I have to pay the full amount up front. I've been holding back my Christmas money for this.

My upper back is bothering me bad right now and my feet are freezinh so I'm going to go lie down under my electric blanket and get toasty warm.

I need to get this post in before the battery life on this iPod runs out.

Today was like most normal days in my life. I got up earlier than expected. I played some more on my new blogs which I love. Then sometime around noon I thought I heard a vehicle in my drive. When I looked outside I saw that it was my uncle, the one I've picked up twice from detox in the past week. I hate drop-in visitors with no phone call. I don't care if you are calling me from my drive way, I want a phone call. You just never know what state of dress or undress anyone is in.

So, I asked if he wanted to come in for a bit. Before I opened the door I popped my head into DD's room to tell her to put on some clothes. She's always hanging out in just her bra and lounge pants. OMG, he smelled so bad. Like seriously bad. He smelled like hard-core sigs mixed with alcohol. He said he had just come from the detox place, I think he had an out patient thing. But I could tell he had already been drinking, he slurred a bit and had drinkers hiccups.

He said he came to get the snow sled because he was going to go sledding. Sledding by himself, yes. He talked for a bit with DD. I talked for a bit till I could no longer stand the smell and turned back to continue working on the computer. He didn't stay much longer after that. He asked if we wanted to go sledding. We didn't really want to but even if we had I wouldn't have gone with him in the state he was in.

Before he even left the driveway, I was on the phone with my dad letting him know uncle S had just stopped by to get the sled to go sledding by himself, that he ubber stunk and that I swore he was drinking already that morning. Dad said he's been getting on uncle to shower. I guess it's been who knows how long since he's washed his body and hair. That most likely goes for his teeth, too, but we didn't talk about that. Dad said uncle had some sort-of appointment or meeting to go to at 4. I figured the sledding must have been a way to pass the time so he wouldn't waste gas running back and forth. After he left, I had to spray the area where he was in my living room down with my DH's colone.

The rest of my evening has been filled with running DD to golf lessons, making dinner, and watching a little TV. Most of the time I've been on the iPod either posting on Facebook or looking for cool stuff on the web.

Well, I'm at 10% battery power. Time to hit send on this app.

175. 1 lb down from last week. I'm super surprised by this because I had such a hard week.
