Is it never going to stop raining........

Storms again yesterday so of course couldn't post as I don't have the computers on when we get electrical storms, always fear that we get a power surge.  Had a good day yesterday in spite of the weather.  Work was awesome, it's amazing how attititudes change when a weak link in the team disappears.  Nothing personally against the fellow that got fired but he sure didn't know anything.  My favorite saying is ""you can't fix stupid, even with duct tape".  Some people are just not cut out to do certain jobs, too bad it took management 5 months to figure it out.

Have to go do a little shopping this morning as I need to get a frame for my folk's anniversary greeting from the Prime Minister and a card from us.  I am going to pick up the DVD's that I had made from some old 8 mm home movies, I can't wait to see them.

I have to sit down and come up with a plan for my weight lose journey.  Think I will keep the special events as a guide but as Tina points out should not set any specific amount of weight to lose as it will just be frustrating if I don't make.  Instead going to just strive for a lose and keeping it off till the next event, no pressure just have to register some type of lose.  Good thoughts Tina, thank you.

My eating habits the past two weeks have been anything but stellar to say the least.  I am totally ashamed of myself.  Like Tina I think I have been suffering from some stress and depression and that is my downfall as it makes me head to the cupboard.  Need to learn how to deal with things without bringing food into it.  Anyone know a good therapist.......lol.  I know some of you are not going to think that is funny but I do because I've been there, done that and actually gained weight during the whole time.  Not sure why but I did.

Spent most of the afternoon watching the DVD's of my parents old 8 mm home movies.  Wow it sure did bring back a lot of memories.  Scenes with my grandparents that have been gone now for some time.  A scene with my Dad holding my youngest son when he was a year old.  The birthday parties, camping trips, my sister's graduation, etc., etc.  Some of it brought tears to my eyes and other times I was killing myself laughing.  Thank you God for modern technology and being able to bring back these years for them.
