Wow!  Where did this day go?  It seems like I hit the ground running this morning.  Had errands to do at lunch and still hit the gym.  Which was wonderful!  I am sure that is where all the energy is coming from, I have been going nonstop since I left there.  I could barely sit at my desk this afternoon for wanting to get outside and do something!

So when I got home I did my other errands here in town and then went and washed my car.  Man did it need it.  My car is red…or its suppose to be.  Here lately its been orange because of the inch thick layer of pollen built up on it.  I refused to take my grandmother around town tomorrow in that filth!  And after supper I’m going out to dust it really good because its black on the inside (shows dust badly)…with another layer of yellow on top of it!  Can we say Acccchhoooo?

Diet wise I am going strong.  Tomorrow is gonna be a battle though.  I just spoke with my grandmother and since Tom is going over tomorrow to mow her yard she has already cooked for him (her way of showing love…and its deadly to a southern girls diet).  A big pot of great northern beans (my all time fave bean) with a pork roast, potatoes and carrots and another cast iron skillet full of 2 inch thick cornbread.  *sigh*  I really wish she wouldnt do that.  I know Tom loves it but so do I!  Just 1/2 cup of those beans are 2 points and that cornbread?  I couldnt even imagine since she uses real buttermilk, real eggs, oil and goodness knows what else.  I’m just gonna have to be strong and say no and tell her not to get her feelings hurt.  But she just wont stop, she thinks she has to feed him everytime he comes over to help.

But besides that I should be ok.  I’ve already told our buddy that I wont be drinking with him tomorrow night.  I thought he was gonna cry.  He isnt happy about my diet anyway, he thinks women look better (his words) meat-er.  And in his book he thinks I am too skinny.  This man is like a big brother to me so he speaks his mind whether I want to hear it or not.  Oh well, he can just suck it up…I cant see another gain on those scales next week. 

So thats about it for my Friday.  Hope everyone is looking forward to a great weekend.  The weather here is still awesome, 88 today with a nice breeze so that it doesnt really feel hot.  Maybe Sunday we can actually get some stuff planted in our garden!
