Down and Out

There are 2 parts to this post 1)Down and 2)Out.
First of all I didn't realize how long it has been since my last post. It just reminds and saddens me that this summer is going way too fast. I am enjoying it so much and really don't want it to end.

Now for the first part DOWN: I have been excercising every morning around 5:30 and hating most every minute of it, except the part where I get in my car and drive away! BUT...I weighed this morning, and I am so shocked and excited to say that it is paying off. I am DOWN 8 pounds!!! WOOOHOOO. Now, keep in mind that the OUT is coming next so this probably will be short lived:)

OUT: Very early tomorrow morning, Len and I are OUT to a school nursing conference held in Albuquerque, NM. We will be gone for 5 days. It has been a long while since we have "honeymooned." I am excited to go especially since a huge part of the trip is paid for by the school. Here is where I will probably fall off the track...EATING OUT FOR EVERY MEAL! The only excercise I will get is whatever walking we do. My past theory has been "when on vacation, never deny yourself...anything." That usually begins in the airport when I pass the Cinnabon stand!

Anyhoo, please pray for a safe trip because as much whining as I have heard this week from the kiddos and as much as I've wanted to escape, I am really getting nervous to be away from them for so long.

I am so proud of you. You will do fine on your trip. Just remember "Portion Control". That was the big thing I had to remember in WV. Keep it up girl! Have fun!
