Well, I'm happy to be starting this week feeling much better than I have the past couple of months, so I'm thankful for that blessing, and hoping to have a productive time over the next few days. As one would expect, my lack of attention to my AVON business has resulted in it floundering somewhat, but when my health was taking up so much of my thoughts, everything else fell by the wayside. I just couldn't think of anything else but trying to keep my blood pressure down and my heartbeat from pounding erratically. I am sincerely hoping that the worst is over, and I can get back to "being me" again.
Yesterday was my darlin' hubby's 53rd birthday, awww he's still such a babe compared to my 62 years, LOL. We have been married 31 years, 32 this August, and that's a def "who'd a thunk it?". We had some really hard times at the beginning, but we made it through.
We went to Chili's for a slap-up meal, and he had the Smokehouse Platter, while I had the Grilled Chicken Caribbean Salad. I was real good too, I had them bring me a take out box and I popped half of mine in the box before I started, which came home with me for today's lunch! Hubby ate all of his, but the dogs were happy as he brought them home his rib bones.
I had bloodwork done again at the doctor's last Thursday morning, and hopped on their scales while I was there ... another 5lbs lost, so that's now 42lbs gone. Another 3 and a half pounds and I will be 1/4 of the way to my goal weight of 140lbs, but will be happy with 160lbs. I haven't weighed either in 30 years! People might joke and say it was marriage that did it to me, but it was actually an underactive thyroid, that went undiagnosed for 20 years as I struggled with putting on the weight of another whole person, in just 15 months.
Had a visit from my granddaughter and her 2 babies, Daniel and Sami, this morning. Now she's on a hunt for a dress for Sami's next pageant in August. I don't envy her!
Hoping you all have an awesome week. Enjoy each moment ... once it's gone, it's gone forever!
