- We went to a very fun wedding yesterday. I wore my "reunion" dress and LOVED it and got lots of compliments. My shoes killed my feet by the end of the evening (1:00 a.m.) but I felt good about how I looked. Why am I telling you this? Because I wasn't feeling at all good about how I looked 4 months ago.
- I didn't drink last night because I will not drink my WW points. And I still managed to have tons of fun. No surprise to me!
- I made a mental note last night to always wear age-appropriate attire and don't wear a short, flowy dress if you don't want everyone to see your undies. If you don't mind everyone seeing your undies, definitely wear a short, flowy dress.
- We seem to know quite a few extremely wealthy people and I have noticed that they are always less "showy" than the moderately wealthy people I know. Why is that? Maybe the truly rich just don't have anything to prove so they aren't trying to make sure everyone knows they have money? Maybe they are so nice to us because they feel sorry for us? Hmmmmmmmmm...........???????????????
- If we have any more of these huge torential downpours of 3 inches of rain in an hour, I am just going to buy a houseboat. This is nuts. Even in a light rain, my garage get's wet. You can just imagine what happens when it pours.
- Connor Company (Travis' work) is moving it's office/warehouse out of the ghetto to a brand new building. Thank goodness. It scared me that he was working in that neck of the woods.
- What is your opinion about year-round school? Of course, it isn't called "year-round", it's called a "balanced" school year. Basically the school year starts at the beginning of August, there is a 2 week "intercession" in October, a 3 week break at Christmas and then another 2 week spring "intercession" and the school year ends at the end of May or the first week of June. I'm not sure where I stand on this yet.
- I did not make my 30 pound goal at WW last week. In fact, I gained .4 lbs. This has me concerned because I followed my usual routine and did not overindulge. However, I did eat dinner after 7:00 p.m. every night for four straight days. That is not good for weight loss. I have had to kick it up a notch this week so I can get back where I should be. I know that that tiny gain doesn't sound like much, but I am in the home stretch and I cannnot afford any gain at all. The reunion is just a few weeks away!
- I put myself through hell today and went to Walmart on a weekend. Under normal conditions, this is something I would never do, but that's just how it worked out. It was waaaaay to crowded for my taste and it took me twice as long as it normally would have to get done. Fortunately, the boys stayed home with Travis, so that was a small blessing at least.

As an educator, I am all for the "balanced" school year. This would alleviate having to spend so much time reviewing material that students have lost over the traditional long summer break.On a selfish note, I would love to go on vacation some other time besides June, July, or August.
