  Happy Friday!!  Hope everyone has had a great week.  I can’t believe we will be heading home tomorrow already!  Today is hopefully the day that I will eat off of a food truck.  We are going to find Garbo’s Lobster truck – how bad could that be?! I am still having to use my phone to load pictures from my iPhone onto a blog...

Oops!  I ended up posting some pictures without text earlier today, and hit publish on my phone before I was ready!  So some of you just saw this:  xoaosusof as text – ha!  So the pictures in this post are in no particular order! We rented a boat on Lake Travis yesterday.  Normally on vacations, the boat rental day ends up being one of our...

When Tony and I got in Saturday night, my step-son and daughter-in-law weren’t home so they left a key for us. Only one problem. They have a pug dog and they were not sure how the dog was going to react to strangers coming in the house. So we walked in the house, and just stayed in the foyer for a few minutes. The dog...

Afternoon! Just checking in from the road. After my meatball sub lunch at work yesterday I was all caught up with my work and was able to leave work early which made all the difference, we didn’t have hardly any traffic and we made it to St. Louis last night. I ate lunch around 12:15, the subs were a big hit, but who doesn’t love...

Sourdough bread that is.  I’ve been working with my starter from Mel’s instructions.   I fed it every day, made sure it was still bubbling along.  Then Monday night I declared it time to make bread! While it wasn’t as sour as I thought it was going to be (I am still feeding the starter) it was pretty delicious.  But it was dark out and we...

Jacky sent me a link yesterday on Facebook yesterday morning.  I hadn’t even gone on Facebook yet when my sister called me to tell me that I made the list for the Top 100 Most Influential Weight Loss Blogs. There’s only one slight problem with that list.  Um, I haven’t lost any weight in 5 years.  Yes I’ve dropped a few pounds here and there,...

I picked up Hannah late Saturday afternoon to head to my Mom’s for a Momma Day sleepover Saturday night.  It’s kind of weird when you see your kids after they have moved out.  I think it’s been about a month since I’d seen her? We got to my Mom’s house and we decided it would be easier to go out Saturday night then on actual...

Afternoon!  Wow, what a lazy morning I had.  I slept for 10 hours last night.  I wish I could give my gift of sleep to Tony just for one night so he could know what it feels like to sleep that long.  We were both really hungry and I had to pick up my contacts before the eye doctor closed so we headed out to...

Hooray for Friday!  Actually, this week went by pretty fast.  A week from today we will be leaving for Austin!   We’ve already rented a boat for one day when we are there to boat around Lake Travis – how beautiful is this??!! Thanks to all of you who stopped by Brooke’s blog to congratulate her on getting to goal, you guys rock! I was...

I hope many of you read Brooke’s blog.  (Brooke Not On A Diet).  She and I “met” each others blog a few years ago.  She was overweight.  Like 327 pounds.  By the time I met her she’s already lost about 70 pounds and was looking fabulous.  She chipped away at it, day after day, month after month and year after year. Mind you, this woman...
