Day 22

Started the day bright and early.  I had to take the car to the shop for the usual, oil change and such.  Afterwards I headed to CVS, mainly because I had a 20% off entire purchase coupon.  Even with today’s technology a person still needs to be diligent with everything.  As I was leaving I am looking at my receipt and realized that I didn’t get the full 20%.  Of course I turned myself around and went back and finally spoke to the manager.  She apologized and finally it was fixed, I know it may not be a lot but we are talking over 5.00.  I sometimes wonder how many people will take all this modern technology for granted and believe it is always right.  Certainly not me, especially with today as an example.

Just finished talking with my neighbor and I must admit it felt really good, because she has complimented me on my weight loss.  Also she has asked me many questions about TOPS and asked if she could come with me to one of our meetings.  Truthfully it would be awesome to have a nearby buddy.  Someone to talk to, possible give each other the encouragement.  I hope she really wants this and will join me in my new crusade. 

I can’t believe how long we were talking.  I mean it was several hours.  I really need to get moving and get some housework done before hubby comes home.  We are meeting the kids tonight at the Cheesecaske Factory to celebrate my birthday.  I have already decided to pick something from their “Skinny licous Menu” but I have also decided that I am going to have one of their strawberry/banana daiquiris.  OMG they are just so delicious.  Tomorrow will be a busy day.  I have tons and I mean tons of laundry to do.  So I believe I will be spending the entire day in the rec room.  One thing good is that it will keep me away from the kitchen, which I have the tendency to pick when I am on the first floor.  It has to be a lot for me to climb the stairs (my knee hurts so badly when I do) so if I stay downstairs I am further away from the devil………

Until later………………….
