174.2 Better Today

Even though it is dark, cloudy, and pouring, I do feel a little better today. I started learning to play Mah Jong this morning, and that has definitely boggled my mind, but it was lots of fun and we had a great teacher. There will be more classes before we can really play, and I'm looking forward to that. And, tomorrow I have my bridge lesson along with good friends, so I need to quit the complaining. I also need to spend a little time just being grateful rather than falling into the dark. For those of you who acknowledge that inner child that we all carry around with us, Jennifer called and suggested I give her some attention.

So I will keep at it and keep expanding my world so that I don't feel too isolated or bored. And I have things to do to get ready for my new grandchild due in June.

176.6 Oh, The Pain! Oh, The Wonder! Oh, The Joy!

We have a house guest and we went shopping, and I totally forgot about my blog! I have yet to do that, to wake up one morning and say, oops! I never wrote a post. I'm very glad that didn't happen today.

As you can see, I'm still stuck. I think it's a little odd that I can't lose or even gain .1 or .2 tenths of a pound. Maybe tomorrow?

It was a great day at Chico's. My friend has also lost a lot of weight and was complaining that there was just nothing in a size 1! When she started losing she was wearing size 3, and I couldn't begin to wear Chico's clothes because there was no way I could even think about fitting into a size 3! We laughed that we were quite a pair, complaining that they just didn't have anything in the smaller sizes. Oh the pain! Oh, the wonder! Oh, the joy!
