time to refocus
ok, time to get back into gear. I'm redoing my goals chart and making a grocery list for this next week. The kids have eaten just about all of the junk food and sweets that were in the house. With my cupboards nearly bare, it seems like a good time to refocus on my health and eating habits.
I always start my week on Monday because it's so much easier to focus. It's kind of like a job; you already have the mindset that you have to go to work on Monday rather than Sleepy Sunday -which is what I had today.
We attended a surprise 80th birthday party for my children's great grandmother on Saturday. DH had a special gift in mind, but on Friday afternoon, that fell apart. I decided I'd make her a "quick" crochet blanket. Started it about 10pm Friday night. I stayed up all Friday night and worked on it mostly nonstop. I finished tucking in the last bit of yarn as GG walked in the front door of the surprise party -around 1pm Saturday afternoon. That was the quickest blanket I've ever made! Everybody there seemed to like it and GG was really impressed, so I'm happy!
The party was fun. We all left our vehicles at a friend's house down the road and were hiding in my sister-in-law's house. GG thought she was going out to lunch with my s-i-l so she was stopping by the house to pick her up. Instead, she found a couple dozen family members waiting to shout Happy Birthday. 
I overate some at the party, but while that's disappointing, I know that I did much better this time vs. previous partys. I also had a couple of friends and relatives comment on how great I'm looking, so that's something!
Anyway, tomorrow restarts my commentment to exercise and watching what goes in my mouth. Wish me luck, please.
I hope you have a great week ahead and lets try to keep each other motivated!
Best wishes!
