What a wonderful evening last night....ate way too much but had lots of fun. The music was very loud....we could still hear it as we went to sleep after watching speed skating at the Olympics. Ate way too much, only had 2 tequilla shooters, a diet coke and a glass of wine...it was the bowls of dried fruit sitting everywhere that really did me in! The Valentine Day Party was at our new neighbors....they know how to throw a party....2 helpers ran a taco bar....they are constantly cooking and making small tacos on demand for 3 hours... it was only our neighbors and Luis' 3 brothers and there wives.... the girls did lots of dancing together and the music was mostly fast and loud.

Woke about 6:30 am...weight was at 135 lbs... and I promise to be good today. I did okay yesterday until the party...only about 600 calories... but I probably had another thousand at the party!!! And, I did go to the gym for an hour yesterday plus walked the 2 miles around the lake with Jim. Oh well, today is another day!

I think we're going to go to see the Jeff Bridges movie today.

6:30 pm....forgot to mention that I received a card from Mr. Jim and I surprised him with a small bag of chocolate candy for Valentine's Day. Nice day...beautiful sunshine and warm weather for a change.

After the movie I fried hamburgers for each of us...made Jim a whopper sandwich complete with bacon and I ate mine straight with some mustard. Worked on the computer for a while then helped Jim mend one of the sparkleballs before putting it up in the attic...the last one to go to the attic.

Then Carolyn picked me up and we went to the gym for an hour workout. Back home for dinner I had a bowl of the vegetable soup, some slices of cheese and a dessert of a yogurt and coolwhip. Do hope I drop a pound tonight. Haven't had any nuts today and drinking lots of water.

Had a long talk with Mary B. this evening...she had a quiet two days with nary a call from Betty. I guess my conversation sunk in about calling too much.
