Debbie Cousins's Journal, 03 March 2022

Well, I stuck with my peculiar WOE for four days. No loss yesterday, and then a slight gain this morning. I was still going to continue, but then Food Lion put its Entennman's donuts on sale 2/$5.00. There went my "diet." Those Rich Frosted Chocolate Mini-Donuts were calling my name as I tried to pass by them.

Weather is nice here in Virginia. 65 degrees today, and sunny. High on Sunday will be 79 and then 81 on Monday. This is our "fake spring." There will still be several frosts before it stays warm enough to start planting my beans. Even though it will cost me more for soil then it would to BUY fresh string beans every week during the summer, I get so much enjoyment from watching them grow that I'm going to go ahead and do it anyway.

Today, I'm joining the community pool for the summer. Even though we HAVE a 22' x 52" pool, it's not really something you can swim in - more for playing or floating. The one I'm joining is half the size of an Olympic pool, and I can swim laps with my snorkel mask on, if I'm so inclined. I can also just tread water in the 9' part of the "well" (which goes to 12' with the diving board). I'm hoping I WILL be so inclined this summer!

Ok, I promised myself that I could have another donut after I did the dishes, but then I went ahead and had the donut anyway - so now I must do dishes!

I love swimming also. I've always wanted a pool. We had an above ground pool when the boys were young. One fall we went to visit the in-laws. We had drained and cleaned the pool before we left. There was a storm while we gone and,even though the pool was staked down, it was a twisted metal mess in the pasture when we got back. That was the end of pools for us. I hope you take advantage of that pool. There's nothing better than losing yourself in laps. Pure heaven!

Yumm those donuts are so good. I'm really struggling with oreo cookies which I am ashamed to admit I bought last time I was at the store. I told myself I would have no more than two a day and count it toward my snack. Of course, that hasn't happened. Swimming is such good exercise for shaping your entire body, and enjoyable!
