The YMCA staff are kind of starting to recognize me...I think. I'm sure it helps that my name is on my card, but, well, I think they are recognizing me. I've been a regular the last two weeks. Loving myself. Learning how to make myself love myself. I've been really good about not stress eating...and cut out alcohol. Cutting it out for this entire month. Will probably enjoy a Stella on Christmas, and will definitely celebrate New Year's Eve, but otherwise, taking a break. Lost 4 pounds already. I'm telling you, wine has a lot of calories.........
Got pedis this morning with my bestie and another friend...girl time is good. Beyond great, actually. It's so nice to have my dead skin shaved off with a cheese grater in front of my friends, whose pedi technicians only have to use the buffer thing. I get the cheese grater, the bandsaw, the drill, then a buffer thing. Hope it didn't gross them out too much. If I wind up getting pedis alone from now on, I'll know why.
Rachel is having a little party here tonight. Having fun listening to teenage girls watch "Glee: The Movie" and sing along. To be young.......they just don't know, you know? You know? I love it...they're beautiful and amazing and precious. And fun. There are also huge bowls of white chocolate covered pretzels, M&M's, chips, and a big tray of cuban sandwiches...Mountain Dew and Dr. Pepper. Having fun listening to it.
Four days till we leave for our trip to North Carolina for Christmas - getting wicked excited...drive will be about 10 hours. Hope to see snow. Hope my Florida blood doesn't put out a hit on me. I can't wait...North Carolina with my husband, all of our kids, and my in-laws. Will miss my mom and sissy and family, but am really looking forward to this vacation. It's been a tough year, with a lot of blessings, too, and it will be nice to relax in a cabin and look at mountains. If it snows, you know I'll be outside playing in it.
