Week 2

I weighed in on Saturday morning. I lost 4.4 pounds. Not bad for a first week. I even ate breakfast before I left. Good for me.

This is week 2. I am as resolved as ever to work this program. My new friend from church has joined me in this endeavor. She started on Saturday. One of my daughters says she may join us at some point. I am glad for the support. You can never have enough support, or even too much support, when you are undertaking a task of this magnitude. My husband is very supportive of this effort, also. The more the merrier, I always say.

I had all of my grandchildren and my daughters over yesterday for the entire day (after church, of course). We had a great time. I love having them there. Sometimes, I wish we could all live in a commune so that we could be together more. I guess they might disagree, but I love being around them.

We played Monopoly. I haven't played it in years. I was bummed out by the fact that the dog wasn't one of the markers you could choose. What is that about? The dog is what I have always been. I ended up being something that looked like a fire extinguisher. I found out a few things playing the game. One, my eyesight isn't as good as it used to be, two, I can still figure out where someone will land without counting out the spaces, three, it is still a very long game. I have a new Monopoly game -- the Wizard of Oz edition. I do want to play it sometime. The baby was asleep in the room it was in, so we couldn't use that set. Maybe next time.

I loved playing Monopoly. But you beat the socks off of all of us, Dog or not!
