OK, just a few more days and the new goal is 120. I will check back in on Sunday evening. :) Hooray for keeping weight off!

Well, I will do this for September since we are so late in August. That will be hard, too, with my sister and her kids in town.

And where? Well, I likely won’t post them here. I’m shy. But, at least I will be writing!

OK, a few days away from confirming the 125 weight. Need to focus on 120 in the morning!

My husband will be out of town next weekend (when I work the weekend he usually takes short trips). When he is gone I tend to make progress on the homemaking front. I think my plan is to grab the ladder and take a box or two out of the attic. I can think of one offhand that I should be able to recycle in its entirety. If I take down another box, maybe I can sort through it and process it. Maybe I can get rid of the contents!
There is no reason to have stuff stowed away in the attic. I don’t know what’s up there, but I know I probably don’t need it!

You know what would really motivate me? (I’ve stalled out on this one.) If I had an easy Beatles songs book, that would be awesome. I would want to play that. That would work on me, I think. goes to library

Geez I can’t for this to be done. I get just about tired of doing things because a schedule told me to. Then after the triathlon on Sept 11, I have a 10k on Oct 17. Bah. But after that? I get to do whatever I want. No more of these goals!
Except that I will plan to improve my 5k time to 25 minutes or less in 2011.
But after THAT, I can do whatever I want.

OK. I still feel like I am in a fat suit, but I am 125 at the end of the day. If I keep this up for a week, I move to the next goal. 120 weight at the beginning of the day for a week. One day in a row!

I just counted up that my husband has seen 18 more of the movies than I have. Lots of catching up to do!

And 26 more to watch with him! Geez! This will take some time.

Sometimes need time to think, not my efforts toward their completed thought. Stop it. You are rushing, not caring, and not listening.

This site is about being better, but…what makes a person good? What is it that makes you consider someone to be good?

I am listening to a book called “Does My Head Look Big in This?”
It’s about a girl who has chosen to wear the hijab full time instead of the required areas (like in prayer and such).
It’s interesting. A flighty girl voice, but I still feel like I am learning something.

The end of the day weight crept up to 128. Keep it down! Eat better!

Ok. 125 at the end of the day. But, can I maintain it for at least a week? And then if I can, can I get to 120 again?

A friend of mine decided to make a list of her own, but got stuck. Now I have a challenger! Must do the splits!

Good Lord. They either had no fun books back in the day or they choose for art quality only. These books are so wordy and boring and preachy and “Mrs. Squirrel” this and “Mr. Duck” that. BORING!

My goal is to weigh 125 or less at the end of the day. Every day for at least a week. I want to know I can maintain this. I keep a scale in the kitchen. It helps a little.

Need more practice, but I am getting there! I am almost comfortable mounting the unicycle. A long way from riding, but there is progress!

At work there is a YA/J reading contest from February though the end of March. It’s going to be on. Anything I read between now and then is gravy. I’ll read the thin ones now?
