yadda yadda
- I have discovered the difference between a swim-suit and a bathing suit. Today I wore my “beach” suit to the pool. It is cuter and more flattering than my lap suit. But swimming in it was a nightmare. The cute skirt flapped around and drove me nuts. Definitely meant for occasional dips/playing in the pool or ocean, not laps. Never again.
- I spent yesterday at camp, painting part of the golf course that my dad built. (the elements for the golf course, not the green stuff.) It was immunology week. I ate lunch in the Dining Hall. I have never been at camp and not had kids to watch. It was a) odd to sit on the side and just observe the controlled chaos that is the DH. b) funny to imagine S. sitting on one of those benches. Will she be the diva sending the counselor back for a bagel and then rejecting it because it was toasted wrong? Will she be the hyper girl racing to the podium to add names the bushy-tail shaking list (those who go out in the in door or vice versa are punished by singing and dancing to the bushy tail song). Will she (gulp) be the morose kid–head on the table? Will she be the one in the wheelchair, or the one with the volleyball team T-shirt?
- I have lost 8.4 pounds on Weight Watchers. In 8 weeks. I expected more, much more. I’ve been very, very diligent. I guess this is the old metabolism hitting bottom on me. On the other hand, a pound a week is 52 pounds in a year.
- Tomorrow is my shower. I’m very nervous. My admin assistant is being very secretive. All I know is what time it is. I don’t know who (if anyone) is coming. A lot of people are out of town. I don’t even know where it is being held. I am nervous about saying or doing something stupid. I get really nervous when I think people are staring at me. I will not eat any spinach for lunch. I have that part down.
A pound a week is FANTASTIC! Congratulations!
