sleepy and happy

Good day! My friends left yesterday afternoon. We had such a fun time!! It had been nearly two years since I'd seen Serra - way way too long. It was so nice to connect again - as if no time had passed at all. The Super Diamond show at the Fine Line Friday night was a blast! I had my usual pre-show anxiety and did retreat to the restroom a few times to try to calm down/cool off but once the music started it all seemed good. Of course there were the annoying people around us - "the jumper" and the drunk linebackers that just plow through the crowd nearly knocking you over but the show was great and the annoying people became something to laugh about afterward.

Oh my gosh did we ever have the BEST Thai food (click here) ever that night! I highly recommend it. So I think I did pretty good overall with my eating over the weekend. I splurged but not in quantity, more in quality of food. I kept track of my points - as outrageous as they were some days and then as soon as they left town yesterday I hauled the dog to Lake of the Isles for a lovely walk. It was such a beautiful day outside yesterday. I was exhausted after our walk. She's learning how NOT to pull so I guess I should thank her. She probably made my workout more intense for all the restraining and about faces (to stop the pulling) we did.

Oh! I did go to my WW meeting on Saturday morning too. I went to a later one so it wasn't the same leader but it was a good meeting all in all. We talked about depression a little bit too during the meeting. I guess those meetings really feel like a support group. I need to find some courage to speak up and share what I know too. I'm SO not a public speaker. I am down four more pounds for a total of 18 so far. I was pretty happy about that since we'd had that fabulous Thai food the day before.

I had a great time this weekend and I hopped right back on track so I feel good about that. I'm darn tired though! Lots of late nights and busy days but it was all so much fun.
