  Blogging Before Eating
Grant put Darcy up to taking this picture. Everyone else was eating supper (pizza), but, I am on a diet (the never ending diet) and I had already drank my 'highly nutritious, chocolatey, and extremely satisfying' protein shake for my supper (tastes like minerals and vitamins mixed in lightly chocolated chalk board dust)...so, I was sitting at the dining room table blogging while everyone else ate their cholesterol ridden, preservative infested pizza. They all thought it horrid of me to type through supper...but, I was rather enjoying myself!

Since we are on the topic of 'delicious and satisfying' protein shakes, let me state that in six solid months of dieting and excercizing I have lost a grand total of 18 pounds. Let's see...that works out to three pounds a month. At this speed of light progress I will still be dieting two years from now. And here I was suppose to be at my goal weight in JULY so we could go on our horse-back/camping trip deep into the back country of the Canadian Rockies (my reward for reaching my goal!). Guess I'll be enjoying my reward before I reach my goal...but, I promise to stick to it! Darcy is REALLY looking forward to our family adventure. I have to admit, I am too! I think Pop John and Yea Yea are chomping at the bit to see the back country, too! Wonder if I ought to take my lap-top along...it does have wireless internet capabilities... (oh...you don't think there will be a source for wireless access up there? No...probably not!)

  • Annika is my niece. She was born with bilary atresia and had to have her first major surgery at the age of 6 weeks. Just before she turned a year old, she had to have a liver transplant. Two and a half months later, she had to have a second transplant. Now, five years old, she needs a third transplant and her family's insurance is nearly maxed out so a COTA fund has been established to raise the money needed.
    (Please click on the little bear button above to donate to her COTA account or to view the raffles and other projects that are in progress to build the fund. If you have crafts, etc, that you could donate to be sold/raffled, this would also help greatly!)
