Home Stretch!! Wahooo!!

Well, this morning I woke up and bleary-eyed, scuffed my way to the bathroom.  Did my usual routine then got on the scale and saw 149!  14 pounds to go.  I've been on this diet for so long that it's hard for me to realize that I'm almost there.  I'm still in the going strong mode and I think that part of the reason I've been so successful is that I haven't focused on my long-term goal.  I've lost all of this weight by focusing on little goals.  Now I have to change my thinking......it's such a strange feeling.  But I know I can work it out in my mind.  I find myself thinking more about transition and maintenance than before, so maybe my mind is just working it out and I don't need to worry about it.

Alot is happening here aside from my diet.  We're moving our offices and my mind has been cluttered with floor plans and carpeting/painting samples.  I wake up nights remembering something we forgot to consider.....it's always little, though, like where will we put our Fed-X stuff or where will the coffee pot go (A little thing, but very very important!), etc.

A friend of my son's (age 25) was killed last Saturday....he was hit by a car while he was crossing a street.  His parents also lost a baby to crib death years ago.  This kind of puts all of my little troubles into perspective......I mean.....I have my family, they're healthy, so what else really matters.
