Dee - I'm so glad your health is doing so much better now. POTB for taking such good care of yourself and making progress on recovery.
I had a 1/2 lb gain at WW. I'm not thrilled about any gain but considering the 9 meals I ate out this week, it could have been worse. My scales at home showed a loss this morning, but getting on the scales in the evening is a challenge to predict. I am enjoying the WW meetings. We have a really good instructor and awesome vibe going with the interaction between the attendees. Another niece joined WW this week so there is family interaction at the meeting too.
DH came home from town with a Baby Alive doll. The little neighbor girl that DGD5 plays with is having a birthday soon. She told DH that she wanted this doll so DH went looking for it. Now DGD5 wants one too. Argh! I just bought her birthday gifts yesterday. I read the reviews on the doll and decided to pass on getting her one. The doll eats, p**p, and pees. Changing the baby doll diapers would be fun the first few times, but I think the novelty will wear off quickly. AND I don't want to add to my to-do's of buying disposable diapers for a fake baby!
I'm having a rough start with the Echo. I ordered it Saturday night. On Sunday A-river dropped the price $30. I email A-river and they refunded the $30. Meanwhile, the Echo started not consistently working. I researched and did all the troubleshooting without solving the problem. Today I decided to give up on making it work and get a replacement for it. When I went to A-river to request a replacement.......I found a totally new Echo version is being released next month. So I decided to get a total refund & return this Echo and have pre-ordered the new version. I find it somewhat surprising how quickly I became dependant on the new capabilities of having this device. It is a sidetracker dream because it handles commands immediately without me stopping to do the task myself.....and then forgetting what I was doing before I stopped to do this.
The metal for the fence arrived today. DH is busy installing it to the frame. We only ordered about 20' to test in an area of the yard that can't be easily seen I like the looks of a metal fence over the look of a wooden fence, but I wanted to do a test before committing to it.
1. Know what you want.
2. Go after it relentlessly.
