Day 1



We all woke up to 2 or so more inches of the white snow. The grass had just started to peak out and say, "hello". We are back to the endless sea of snow...which by the way I LOVE! It is wonderful...when hot flash land hits I go outside and breathe in the cold...steam evaporates off me...yes it is true!

So far, so good on day one of diet hell................actually, I must admit I kind of like it, as I am also doing it on the computer too. It does a lot of the tracking and points for you...once you get the hang of it! Next Wednesday..January 6th.....next weigh in........

Walking


Due to the amount of snow my walking has been curtailed of late. Of course, that could be an excuse? So, I have decided to try a well worn diet...weight watchers....my goal..to lose weight...I will start this evening....I love to cook and truly LOVE to eat what I cook...does that make sense? (My sweet daughter has informed me that I am a foodie...I will have to be a diet foodie?) I'm throwing this out there to make me and me alone accountable for this eating that I do. My children will have to go along on this venture with me...meaning the sweets and baking of such will end....in some sort of degree? It will be too tempting and my willpower is, shall we say "weak"? I have to lose 50 damn stinky pounds but want to get more off...my wonderful physician has informed me not to see it as such...take it a pound at a time....so every Wednesday I will post the poundage lost...the gain(please no) and the no loss...as I know this happens.......Join me on my journey to diet hell....won't you?

Cooking...Baking....Baking...Baking


I have made 18 tins of cinnamon buns....if I see another I will vomit...........I am done until the next year!
The cookie baking starts soon......

My dawling has been sick with a head cold...he is in hot toddy land.....all I had was bourbon.....Unfortunately, at night when he sleeps...I want to tape his mouth as he sounds like a bear...although I personally have never heard a bear snore....which reminds me of the night he was snoring so loud..I was having a strange dream that the vacuum was on and I could not get it to turn off.....it was the dawling snoring..... I love him...I do....He talks in his sleep... but we will leave that for another time.....

My sweet girl comes home soon...can't wait...The three boys miss their sister ........the Daddy misses his oodles of boodles....the dogs miss her.....the house misses
her...the road... well... we miss her.....
