Happy Anniversary to myself, my dear mother, and Cindyshine!!! Cindy celebrates 2 years here on fatsecret today. Mom and I are celebrating our 1 year anniversary!! Mom (judibird) has lost 80 lbs. I have lost 60 lbs. A year ago today I did not truly believe this was possible. So nice to be proved wrong on occasion!!

She and I are off to celebrate today!! Lunch out at Azteca for our favorite taco salad. Perhaps dessert at Coldstone Creamery. A little shopping she wants to do.

I have a plan in place to deal with our financial crisis and to feels right. I feel good. I look good. And, I am confident that I can continue on this journey. Blessings upon all of you fellow sojourners. Again I thank you for your companionship, your encouragement, your heartfelt journal entries and comments, and your gentle prodding when I lose my way.

Today I am grateful for ...

1. once again, Bob and I seem to manage stressful situations successfully
2. my husband's "thank you" last night for "all you do"
3. a day to play with my mommy!!!
4. feeling oh so good today ... I even think my butt has firmed up!!
5. learning how, over and over again, to take one moment at a time

We had a great day!! The sun decided to come out. It was warm enough I didn't need a coat on and could stand and soak up all that vitamin D!!! We enjoyed each other's company, had a wonderful taco salad, later had some yummy ice-cream, and shopped our little hearts out. Me? Oh considering the financial situation I didn't buy much but had a lot of fun helping my mom pick out things!! I am not counting the calories today. Although, other than the ice-cream everything was wise choices. Came home and made some "hamburger soup" ... which I am eating right now!!

Happy belated Anniversary! I'm so glad things are working out for you with the money situation. With your great attitude, I'm not surprised you made it work out. So what flavor did you get at Coldstone! Don't hold out on us! :)

Oh ... the Apple Pie ala mode one!! I wanted something with the cake batter flavor but they were OUT!!! That means when we go to Mexico in April I'll be stopping at the Cold Stone Creamery at the Phoenix Airport for my Cake Batter fix!!! LOL!!!

Cake Batter Ice Cream from Cold Stone is my all time favorite!! I have not had it in about a year and half. However; I used to eat it atleast once a week. I used to have a Cold Stone about 5 minutes from my house, now the closest one is about 30 minutes a way....outta site outta mind!!

I have never been to Cold Stone. I am afraid of it! LOL. I am glad there is not one near me. I would definitely use my son as an excuse to treat myself.
