weight up a pound this morning at 131 lbs. Not surprised as we went to Westmoreland's last night....cruised the lake with grapes, creamed brie cheese and lemon curd plus wine. Then to their house for dinner: berries instead of salad...blackberries & strawberries...pork roast, beans with bacon & cheese, peas, corn & bread....I ate about half of what she put on my plate and no beans. Then later we had dessert of cake & ice cream....soooo...one pound not bad.

Read this morning about the Iceland Volcano disrupting flights in Europe. Do hope that is all done with by June!!!!

Weather is overcast this morning...it's 7 am....going to the gym at 9...

bkf: oatmeal & coffee

Never got around to cleaning house yesterday. Played with the netting to make bows for the chairs at the wedding reception. You and I are going to have fun cutting the strips after you get here....I put wide wrapping paper together and drew lines to follow to cut the sample I purchased. I think I'll get some dye today and give dyeing a try....

UPDATE AT 9 PM

Funny thing.....we watched Sherlock Holmes today and so did Mary....

Food: Lunch was a banana and a yogurt....after a large coffee at the local coffee house with the girls after the gym...yes...I passed on the carrot cake they purchased to share.

Snack: Yogurt and 2 cheese sticks

Dinner: Salad with vinigar and cottage cheese

Hope I lose that pound.

Got an email from Michaels with a 40% coupon good until tomorrow...so I printed 2 of them and we drove over to pick up # 6 & 7....got 2 more coupons for next week...now we have 7 to redeem next week which will give us 14 vases at 40% off... after discount they were about $8 each.

Didn't get as much housework done as I wanted but I did get the mirrored wall in the bathroom cleaned tonight. Will work on the rest next week...I'm saving the china cabinet for after Mary arrives so she can help me...hint...hint...

Everything is ready for our day trip to S.F. tomorrow for the shower. Barbara called at 5 pm today and said she wanted to change everything and stay overnight instead of making the trip in one day...wanted me to change the airline flights and get a hotel for us in San Francisco....I talked her out of it but wow...she complained about the early & late flights but those were the cheapest and she chose them. Oh well....I told her she could take a nap before the shower starts when we get to Jay's and also afterwards before we go to the airport.

Hugs....
