Friday - ahhhh.....

Tony got the hot tub installed on Wednesday and we got in it yesterday morning at 6:15am before I went to work, because it was too freakin' cold on Wednesday night. Last night, he surprised me with a bottle of champagne to christen the tub with and celebrate my new job...very nice evening indeed.

So, on the weight-loss front, I know this week I haven't made the best choices on a consistent basis....much better than in past weeks, but not great choices at all.....but I am tracking, which is new....today is day 19 of tracking, so I'm feeling that I'm learning things about what choices I make when I'm rushed.......

I threw my back out on Sunday afternoon, so haven't done any movement much at all this week. Still have to finish planting my gardens......still want to get back on my horse and ride on Sunday.....the pool yard is almost finished (concrete poured around the pool on Monday), so as soon as this rain disappears, it's back in there to put everything back together the way it should be.

Plans for the weekend: Saturday - its supposed to rain cats and dogs.....if my back is up to it, I'll get on the treadmill and my elliptical and do a workout on Saturday afternoon. Sunday, will be gardening, mucking out the horse, and opefully riding!

Next week, back to the regularly scheduled programming.....which is to get my @rse back to zee gym, pronto, without excuses.

Need to work on water.....water, and water.

Update on a Monday morning

Got lots and lots and lots of gardening done yesterday and Saturday and things are looking nice at home right now........Tony is getting ready to put two concrete pads down today - one around the pool to replace the old wood one and one new one for the new jacuzzi that's going in....well, this week! It's been sitting on a trailer for two weeks....I figured it would be at least another month before we could use it, but apparently, it will be in by Thursday or Friday - how cool is that!

Threw out my back yesterday - not sure exactly what I did, but I'm a mess today.....now I NEED the jaccuzi!

Anyway, down .5 yesterday at WI, which is a good thing....keeping focused and planning on being a loser again this coming week.

I DID IT!

I got the job.....I got the job....I got the job! Yesssssssssssssssss.....!

Start date is July 14th........right after almost two weeks vacation, and right before corn season starts.....I've managed to negotiate my Fridays off for the whole summer! That way I canwork at the corn stands as needed!

Work is crazy - it's Research & Education Day on Friday and the event is my baby - just a little somethin' I throw together to showcase Cancer Research in London for about 200 of my closest buds! LOL.......12 hours straight at my desk yesterday - went home and fell on my face ....today more of the same....I'll come back up for air around 3pm on Friday when the "work" part of the event comes to a close.

So, Syl, how was the ole b'day?

AWESOME!

That's how I'm still feeling today! I had a superb weekend, WW-wise, lots of APs, tracked everything, easily made smart choices and I was rewarded by a 4.5 lb loss this week!

Still no news on the job front - eeeeeck......this is getting to be absolutely ridiculous, honestly!

So, very busy at work this week....too busy.....then things will settle down a bit.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BIRTHDAY GIRL!
