Hello long weekend!!

I'm starting early for the May two-four, I'm off today and it's beautiful--well it's going to be beautiful!! I'm making Chris his birthday dinner tonight--Crabcakes w/ wasabi aoli, grilled veggie/caesar salad with REAL bacon bits and for dessert..........homemade Strawberry Shortcake. To be truthful, I'm a little worried about the baking part of the shortcake. I can cook anything and it always turns out but baking isn't my forte, it's sometimes hit or miss on it turning out. I'm sure he'll eat it anyway ; )

I'm getting my hair done tomorrow--I want a change. I'd like to go shorter but genetics won't allow that! Picture a mushroom cap and that's what my hair looks like short........not good.

I STS for weight this morning--I'm a little bummed but I can't change the results now. I had a patient in this past week who's been doing WW since July/06 and he's lost 55lbs! I almost didn't recognize him, he looked fantastic.

Work is work, the office manger was sick AGAIN and left early yesterday. Totally looked like she was faking and a few times I heard her on the phone sounding perfectly normal. UGH!! Just freakin' take the day off, why subject the rest of us to a running commentary of how your nose feels, how stuffed up you are, how cold you are.........ENOUGH ALREADY!

Well, I've got to get started on those shortcakes and there was a garage sale starting at the top of my road this morning............maybe I'll have a look. I'm soooooooo addicted to garage sales......sad isn't it?

TGIF

Thank god it's Friday..........I'm down 2 lbs, which I'm happy about. I think the walking is finally paying off.

Today I went on a class trip with my daughter's class to Guelph Lake. I had no idea how beautiful it was there and it's only 25 mins away from home! We'll definately be going back in the summer.

This week has been very busy and one of the highlights was........I bought a belly dancing outfit! I love it!!

Well, it's going to be a busy weekend and I'm wiped out from chasing a bunch of 8 year olds around all day : )

Up a pound........

Well this morning I weighed myself and I'm up a pound. I know why---I'm not eating breakfast regularily or yoghurt so I have to fix that.

Anyway, this month I turn 35--it seems so surreal to me. I remember when I was 21 thinking about what I'd be doing when I was 35 and it seemed SO FAR OFF, time sure has passed on by. I had pictured a few things differently but the mind of a 21 year old and reality aren't always in sync.

I can honestly say I'm happy where I am AND who I am.

Lots of things are happening over the next few months which I'll blog about as they come up, one of which is my Grandma's 90th birthday!
In a month, my daughter is supposed to be going camping at the Toronto Zoo with her Brownies troup. Her Dad and I decided she wasn't going for many reasons. Here they are: it's a 2 hour drive each way, she has a severe peanut allergy, they are sleeping in tents on the grounds of the zoo, she's 8 years old, drop off is Sat @4:30 and pick up is the next morning @10 am and lastly it's $55.00 for all of this. I told the leaders last night and got a bit of attitude about this, frankly I'm a little pissed off. What do you think?
