From the kitchen...tried a new brew this weekend and loved it: Unibroue's Chambly Noire. Give it a try, if you're so inclined.
Around the house...the windows are open and the whole house fan is freshening the place.
A favorite thing...my sewing machine. I miss using it and am determined to find a way to incorporate sewing back into my life!
I am thinking...that when Solomon advised us to "guard your heart with all diligence for from it flow the issues of life" he knew what he was talking about.
I am wearing...a Cardinals hat. Yes...they just got swept by the Braves. But when's the last time they got swept? Better yet, when is the last time they even lost a series? Hmmm? That would be late July. And they have swept 5 series since then. So, hey. We're good! Go CARDS!
I am reading...Helen Keller's The Story of My Life.
I am thankful...for my sister-in-law, Trina!
Plans for my week...wallow in self-pity...wrestle with myself loathing...stare into the abyss as I slip slowly into madness...
A photo/video I am sharing...from the wedding archives: my siblings with me from our wedding 17 years ago. I was struck by how dark-haired all of us were. Not anymore! Grey and artificial color prevail now! The six of us sang "Savior, Like a Shepherd Lead Us" during the ceremony.

That is so great that you get to create a whole new fall/winter wardrobe. How did you do it? Inquiring minds want to know. :)
How did I do what? Get my husband to agree to purchasing a whole new wardrobe? :-)
I've been eating a diet very low in carbs and very high in fat for a little over 2 years now. I lost about 25 pounds in about 18 months and kept it off...but leveled out. In March, I started walking/running 3 miles 5-6 days per week. I've dropped another 15-20 since then. I'll probably have to maintain this lifestyle forever if I want to keep it off. And of course, right now, I WANT to keep it off! I went from wearing size 14 jeans to SIZE 4!!! THAT is fun. I have one more goal...to lose about 7 more pounds so that I can say I've lost 50...just for fun! :-)
Maybe you meant how did I create the new wardrobe and I just gave you a bunch of info you didn't want!!
I'm a bargain shopper...TJ Maxx, Marshalls, WalMart, Target and GOODWILL!! I plan to blog about the whole shopping experience...eventually.
Well, the wardrobe part is interesting, but I was asking about the weight loss method so you answered the right question. Atkins, then? And congratulations on losing it all. That's amazing, woman! :)
And, I look forward to reading about your shopping and wardrobe building experiences.
SIZE 4? Where are you going to come up with another 7 pounds? I said you have BEAUTIFUL legs, NOT Bird legs, and you are a Waggoner so leave alittle Junk in the Trunk My Dear Lori!! Can I say that on here?? My-Bad???
