28 August 2008

Please pray for our neighbor's 12 year old girl. She is one of my daughter's two best friends, She was hit by a truck last night while riding her bike to church. She suffered a small skull fracture and slight brusing on each side of the brain. Doctor's don't think surgery will be required and the bleeding was a small enough amount that it should be absorbed without needing drained. Her 13 yr old brother witnessed the accident. Several youth groups were notified to pray and God heard the prayers. The kids know how she was hurt, but many don't know how lucky and minor the injuries are compared to the expected. Pray God helps the kids in school today as rumors my fly. I thnk God for His hand in this, healing Dezy. Thanks for any and all prayers.

Okay, the sink has a working faucet, working filtration system and no leaks in the supply lines or any connections. However, I'm still trying to find a way to cap off the hole from the drinking faucet into the drain pipe., so we can only use one side of the sink so far. At least its the side with the garbage disposal. I'll try again today for a cap of some sort.

I walked my mile this morning, a lot slower today. I was praying/thinking more today. I also have a blister in the inside of one of my toes that was bothering me. I walked it in 25 minutes today.

Now that we have water again, I'm going to push it and hope I lose 3.4 by Mon. weigh in. That would mean I reach my mini goal. Under 190 by Sept. 1st.

Thanks again for your prayers.

Down 1.8 for the week, lots of up and down, but overall okay.

I walked my mile this morning in the rain.

I was hoping to have a yard sale this weekend, but the forcast calls for scattered Thunder storms on Fri. & Sat. I guess I'll just have to box things up and donate them. I need to do more MAJOR purging of items we own.

The sink is coming along. No leaks with the new fixture, but I need to cap the water supply and drain lines for the reverse osmosis filteration faucet I removed to put a hose in. I also need to figur out how to mount the spout filteration system and keep the weight from it from causing the spout end to swivel as it was doing last night. I'm not sure how to solve that problem yet, but at least I have water again. The cold water is shut off until I go BACK to Lowes AGAIN and buy the caps I need.

Have a great day. Time to save this before the power goes off again, I typed this once already.

I had frozen Lasagna last night, It wasn't that great, so having less than one serving was easy. Those have so much SODIUM!!!!! only 260 calories / serving, but 960 mg sodium. Nothing sounded good and I was on a time crunch.

I walked 1 mile this morning in 20 minutes, I 'm not sure I'll get to the 15 minute mile, seemed like I was walking fast now, but maybe when I get in better shape. This is only day 4 of walking while my daughter waits for the school bus and my husband get ready to leave for work.

I have a real messy challenge to tackle once Lowes opens I'm replacing our sink facuet and need parts. The installers who put the original sink in made it impossible to replace without cutting the copper tubing. They used permanant methods to attach the supply line to the facuet fixture....IDIOTS!! Now I have more work to do for what should have been a QUICK very simple task. Oh well, I hope I can finish before needing to cook dinner. I REALLY DON'T WANT TO CCALL A PLUMMER, I hate the service call and labor fees!!!!! They are never in the budget.

Well, I need to go work with my 4 yr. old with his reading and math lessons, before the store opens.

Have a great day.

Okay I was mad yesterday so I caved into a dip of mint choc. chip ice cream for dessert after church today. I limited it to one dip, but did eat it all.

The rest of the meal Shinese was god, no rice or potato items, just meat and green beans, however I know it was loaded in sodium with the sauces.

Does salsa in resturants have a lot of sodium??? maybe that was part of yeaterdays problem.
Oh well, I went out and walked this morning before my daughter caught the bus. I was a little slower today, 24 minute mile. My walking partner didn't show again today, I was temptednot to get dressed and crawl back in bed after she left instead, but knew I'd be mad at myself if I did.

Today I've had a bowl of Special K Protein cereal and 24 oz. water

I think I'll be busy most of the day today, I need to replace a facuet at least washers, but I've been wanting a new facuet in the kitchen, ours is leaking...has been,but last night no matter how I turned and adjusted things it wouldn't stop...I turned the water off under the sink, so I must go buy parts later, plus the oil needs changed in my husband's car, I want to get pictures taken of my son during school my daugter after (special, but one package special per visit per family) so I'll make two trips, can't afford the price of school picture packages.

I also plan to have a yard sale this weekend and need to do a lot of work to get ready for this!!!!

Okay I've griped enough.

Hope everyone else had a good weekend.

VERY DISAPPOINTING WEIGH IN THIS MORNING!!!
I was hoping for cycle weight gain to be yesterday's cause for being up a pound. I expected it to be down this morning.

We did go out to Eldorado's last night, but I really was good.
I had a bowl of tortilla soup, I didn't eat all the chips on top.
I had 2 stalks of celery with the salsa on them instead of the nacho chips they give. I did cave and had ONE chip with salsa when the table got a new basket of hot chips, but ONLY ONE!!!

My meal was the chick salad, no taco shell bowl, meat lettuce (iceburg and romane) a slice of tomato and little cheese. I used salsa for dressing. It was very good and I was proud of my self

Prior to that I'd had an egg omlet for brunch and slim fast shake around 3:30 while I fixed pancakes and pizza for my family I didn't touch either. That nightI had unsalted peanuts measured out 1/4 cup.

I was pleased and again expected a weight loss, getting ready to dtart day 3 of cycle, but NO!!!! Now I'm up 2 more pounds YIKES!!!!!!!
My mini goal was to be down 5 pounds from Thurs. weight by Mon. Sept 1st, now instead of being closer really making smart choices on what I eat, I'm 3 pounds further from it.
