because it's the holidays and everyone except me is on vacation. my phone is silent. my equipment is checked in. noone's online. so i sit here with my thoughts and occasional voices (which is never good).... ehe... I am excited about one thing though. in January me and Maz are flying to las vegas to meet and stay with my aunt rosalie. since that is within a couple hours of the grand canyon, we're renting a car and going there too. *grin* i've been there before but when i was there i was at the eastern end of the canyon... about 4 hours drive if that tells you anything about the size of this monster. we'll be viewing from the western side. so i'm excited about that. i love it out west. anyway we'll have heaps of fun. no dice on the snowman yet. it's been raining here and all the snow except for the big piles of it from snowplows is gone. very very strange for dec/jan in michigan. i think Maz brought the warm weather with him. on another plus note, ken took down the Christmas tree while i was at work yesterday. i was so surprised and pleased to see it gone! i put it up every year and i loathe taking it down. it's just so much work so i'm really grateful that he took it down for me... AND put all the boxes back in the basement! it was funny because i didn't notice it right away and i was sitting there talking to Maz and suddenly i said 'holy shit!' (which i shouldn't say) and rudely interrupted Maz (sorry).. i was just so startled.
well 7 more workouts before i get measured again. i lost almost 8 inches my first month. this month i'm working out much harder and more regularly. AND i've been watching my portions on food. SOOOOO i fully expect that i will not only lose another 8 inches but i expect to lose MORE than another 8 inches. unrealistic? don't underestimate me. i'm working so hard i puke. after a month of that 3x a week.. something's gotta give. my sister said my face looks thinner. God bless her. i don't see any difference but then i'm highly critical of myself. sigh.. well off to do more staring at the walls...
