Good Morning, FS Warriors! Well, I didn't lose any, but Hallelujah, I didn't gain any either! That is nothing short of a miracle in itself. I did fairly well all week, as far as not eating to huge excess, but not so great that I was expecting much of a loss. Well, last night we had the Church Seniors fellowship dinner (potluck). Man, they had some good food there! And wouldn't you know it, I had a little of everything that tempted me, including a slice of blueberry pie. Of course, afterward I wished I had eaten so much less, but that's the story of my life. The amazing thing is that I did not gain any weight. In fact, considering the volume of food that I ate, I may be on the verge of losing more weight.
I brought some more leftover weight watcher chili in for lunch today. Going to try to exercise some restraint. Sometimes it gets to me, devoting so much thought and energy into avoiding the things I enjoy the most. Food for sure. Sex - well, we won't go there. Anyway, I'm still looking at the sod from above, so life is good.
The dogs didn't kill any more poor defenseless animals last night. I hate it when they do that, but even with a fenced in yard, rabbits and coons will still find a way in. And there seems to be a lot of them in the area. We had cut down a huge overhanging oak tree limb, and damned if Onyx didn't try to drag it through the doggie door. She has literally removed half of the firewood pile to the opposite end of the yard. She is obsessed with material handling, and making it a nightmare to mow. Having her spayed sure hasn't impacted her energy and determination. She's a trip, but she keeps me on my toes.
I've got DW's van in the shop (not my shop) to have the transmission looked at. Almost left her stranded a couple miles from home. Wouldn't go anywhere in “drive,” but would go in 1st or 2nd. Tech says it is probably the sprag clutch and “It is terminal!” Oh great, “terminal” sounds so final and - EXPENSIVE! Oh well, it's got to be done, and a transmission guy I ain't. I am beginning to think maybe if I didn't have so many vehicles, I might have more time to devote to some of my other projects. Hmmm, I will have to look into that.
Anyway, life goes on, and it's better than the alternative. Here's hoping you all have a wonderful day, and an even better weekend! Toodles!
