Friday the 13th

Holden is sick with some sort of flu and I am trying very hard not to panic. For some reason I get all weird when my kiddos are sick. But he seems to be feeling better. I'm hoping and praying Camden and I don't get it. We are eating healthy and taking it easy today. Cliff is coming home from Nebraska today and I am planning on barbecuing some chicken and veggies later. He has to work all weekend for the Navy Reserves, but that is local thank heavens--see we'll see him in the evenings.

Happy Anniversary to my sister, Heidi in Texas!! I hope it is a wonderful day for you!!! It is going to be a lovely spring day here and for that I am so thankful. Camden and I went on a walk to the lake this morning and saw some huge white birds. As we got closer I realized they were a flock of pelicans that decided to take a pit stop on the lake. It was so cool because we have lived here on and off since 1999 and that is the first time I have seen pelicans on the lake. I wish I had brought my camera.

So far so good on Friday the 13th. Some more good news: I have lost one pound this week and I am so excited! I have lost about 5 pounds in the past month. I have gained a lot of muscle and lost inches. I am trying to cut back more on my portions and snacks. It is so hard, but I figure if I lose a pound a week that is safe and less chance of the weight coming back. I'm still dreaming of getting a bike. I am getting a little bored with walking. Last night I danced to music while the kids jumped on the bed.

I am being summoned by Camden...Happy weekend all!

That's awesome that you are losing weight! It is very difficult and a lot of work. 5 lbs is something for sure! Keep it up because you will continue to feel better!
