I now am hanging an article of clothing the next size down in my bathroom, where I will see it multiple times a day. I will try it on every Friday morning, and when I can comfortable wear it I will weigh myself. My item at the moment is this jean skirt:
Excuse the mirror on it...should have removed it for the pic, but...
I tried it on this morning, and I can get it on, and button and zip it, but it's still a little snug...not comfortable. But hey! At least I could button and zip it! I will try again next Friday!
New foods for this week? Tried this THM Taco Soup. I thought it was good, needed something but the flavor was good. The rest of my family didn't care for it...I think mostly because it still needed something...beans, or quinoa, or...something.
I have really struggled with my sweet tooth this week. I think almost everyday I caved and filled it. Yesterday I was determined not too...and I made it. I kept thinking of that skirt hanging in my bathroom! One day at a time!
IN OTHER NEWS:
Pilot has been studying all week preparing for his ACT test which is tomorrow.
LegoMan is reading Old Yeller this week, and doing well with reading. Spelling is still a challenge but we are working on it.
Firefighter has been busy with school and work.
I am up to March 2008 on my scrapbooks! (that's the pics that are printed!) I have pretty much decided I am going to get caught up with what is already printed then print the others and fill them in. I will take advantage of any "free print" specials that I can find in the mean time though.
I scrapped some photos yesterday that made me really really miss the little boys! I was working on February 2003...LegoMan's 7th birthday (goal is to do at least one month/day some days get more...).
He had asked for a "Horton". At that time Kohls Cares had Dr. Suess creatures and matching books...SIDENOTE: I love Kohls Cares books and creatures...wish my boys weren't' too big for them now...LOL His birthday "night" he was "reading" his new book to Yertle, and Horton.
He had wanted an "Awmy" (army) jeep cake. I didn't know how in the world I was going to do that, but after some thought and "research" I came up with one! I love making their cakes as creative "new ideas". Not the star drop decorated shaped cakes. I tried to be original. This was one of the "funner" creations. When he got home from school...the look on his face was priceless! Made all the stress worth it! (of course...since it's a jeep...it had to have been mud running.) ;)
Hope you all have a blessed weekend.
We'll keep on,
