So...it has been FOREVER since I have posted. Let's see, what have I been doing? We went to Salt Lake City and Twin Falls, ID. DH had business in Twin Falls so we made a little vacation out of it. We loved both places. It is beautiful up there and ID has THE nicest people ever! I hope we get to go back someday. We also visted Temple Square in Salt Lake City. I have to say, I am very impressed with/ interested in Mormonism. The members seem like really happy people. I know several here and it is genuine. It just seems like a good way to live. I might have a problem with not getting any more tattoos but who knows...
I started back to work two weeks ago and the kids started school. My baby started kindergarten!! It is hard to believe. And she loves it! She has never been a big fan of school but it is different this year and I am so glad. My son started 1st grade and he has always loved school. His teacher seems so great. She keeps the kids in line but is sweet at the same time. This is the first year that there are no teachers aids. I think teachers of young children must be saints, I couldn't do it. I teach adults and that is trying enough!
AND...I have lost 52 lbs.!!!!! I cannot tell you how much better I feel! Mentally and physically it has changed my life. Friends are saying how much happier I seem. I have a ton more energy too. And it's the small things that have been exciting, like I can fit into booths at restaurants easily. And when we flew to Salt Lake City, fitting in the airplane seat was easier. I am down 3 sizes! I have been having fun doing some shopping. I have a semi-formal occassion in a couple of months and I already bought my dress. I bought it a size too small. I have about 50 more lbs. to lose. But who knows, when I get there I may decide to lose more.
Okay, I am going to post soon about the quilt I got in the mail!!!
