It seems like we went non-stop all weekend. The family reunion was a success - no great drama - no hurt feelings - and lots and lots of great food. I ate the few things that I had planned to eat - and just a bite of a couple of indulgences - but I managed to lose 2.6 pounds from Friday morning until this morning. (Total 128 pounds) And I did not have even a bite of the fried apple pies. I'm pretty proud of myself - and feeling more confident every day that I am going to be able to see this through to my goal. Speaking of goals - I will reach 50% of my goal in 9.5 pounds - how exciting is that???? I can hardle believe it - and another goal even sooner than that - less than 300 pounds. I'm pretty excited about all of it....
Several years ago - I bought some beautiful silk material that could be used to wrap a sari. When my Mom was down working on things for my niece's nursery last week - I pulled it out to get something in my sewing basket. She commented on it and we looked at it - it really is gorgeous - red and gold silk - and she said I should make a top out it. Now, I sew - but I'm much better with pillows and shades - not anything fitted to a person. But a dear friend at church, who happens to be an outstanding seamstress, told me she would love to sew for me if I needed her to. Sunday, I took this material to her - asked if she could make something. I explained that I didn't even know what my size was. She whipped out her tape measure - took the measurements, and said that she would have it to me in a couple of weeks. Again - I'm excited.
Apparently my spelling skills are lacking - and a couple of people noticed some mistakes in my last blog - I will correct it, and try to do better.
