GLAMMER's Journal, 04 October 2015

Hi Everyone, sorry I've been MIA again for awhile. We took a vacation drive down the West Coast to San Diego to see our middle DD, who had hernia surgery soon after our visit. She is having serious health problems & we hadn't seen her in over 5 years. We also visited with my only DS & her family in Julian, CA. My weigh-in shows a loss of 2+ lbs, but yesterday I weighed 1 lb less, before oldest DD took me to Red Lobster for their Endless shrimp feed. Then she took me to WinCo for my monthly grocery shopping. I save lots of money by shopping at WinCo, but it's a 120 mile round trip to go there, so we don't go often. We usually go to Walmart which also has great prices, but not quite as good as WinCo. No biggie, I planned for it by weighing on Sat AM vs. my usual Sun AM, so I'm not discouraged by the gain, & know I can lose it again quickly, & more besides. On one hand I hate how slow the weight is coming off, but on the other I know that once it's off it's off for good. So I'll just keep plugging along, just like that "Little Engine that Could". My YMCA membership hasn't been renewed yet, waiting on DD to resolve a little financial crisis then she will be paying for it for me. I am so thankful & blessed to have 3 sweet & loving daughters! I hope you all have a nice, peaceful Sunday, & a terrific week ahead. ~ Hugs & Blessings, GLAMMER

The trip sounds wonderful and time with family is always great. Whether in sickness or health, family is the best.

Thanks Kattay, it was a really wonderful & fun time. We only had 2 days there & it rained the 2nd day so I didn't make it to the beach like I had so looked foreward to. But, we ended up having a mini family reunion at my niece's lovely home in Julian, CA, & it was a very nice fun time after all. I agree that family is the best, & ours has stayed close, even with the miles between us, mostly thanks to Facebook. I'm also very thankful that 2 of our 3 DDs live nearby. They're a real blessing to us, & both of them are working to eat healthy & lose weight too, & have joined the YMCA where I have my pool therapy. Sadly with their work schedules we can't be there at the same time, at least not right now, but we shall see...

Wonderful. Maybe you can work it out sometime to exercise together but as long as you are close in other ways, its great! If it wasn't for FB, I couldn't keep in touch with some of my friends and family. I have a sister in OK, a sister in FL, a daughter in MS, a brother in another part of FL,....you get the picture. I'm in VA.
