everything is GREAT!

Tuesday was  my 14 year wedding  anniversary. No need to celebrate with excess gifts and food. Watching the Giants game as a family, me doing Yoga, getting creative with JC food and Jack getting to golf -makes everyone happy.  Saturday will be House of Prime Rib so really no need to celebrate twice. In the past I would have for sure celebrated both days.   The scale was WAY better today. I know I am not suppose to weigh every day but when I  know it is gonna reflect water  weight getting in balance  well I just can not help it.

... Now Wednesday, all is well.  yesterday I got to go toYoga, celebrated my anniversary and watched the Giants lose.   Had a nice eve without hurting myself or others! Jack brought home wine, flowers and a gift. I wanted a glass of wine but did not want the calories if the Giants were not going to win for sure.!  He said I jinxed them.  I swear I gained a ton last year from clinching the playoffs, the plays offs and winning the World Series. Every time I turned around we were celebrating something. So in a really weird way I want baseball season to end. At least with football there are not so many games.

   Yoga was interesting. It was a hot day in S.F. making the Yoga studio hotter than usual. Most folks are smarter than me and were probably at the beach. Me and a few old dudes sweat it out together.  I went over CPR in my head as I meditated and wondered what old man would go down first and if 2 went down at the same time who I would help?  I worked hard and showed progress but pushed to the point where I really was unable to do the last pose. My back, once again speaking up rather sternly in German , warned me to slow down - so I did.

The scale "winked" at me this morning with a little smile and I am hoping it will show a 2-3 pound on Thursday at JC. So despite 3 days of play all could be well!  I am a little excited.

Shopping update- still have those damn Ralph Lauren boots in my Bloomingdale's basket! I just look at them every once in a while. Jack gave me a Nordstrom gift card and did not tell me how much it is for. It is unmarked. So when I do hit up Nordstroms I will first ask someone to tell me how much it is for before I get to the check out counter. I could see myself thinking it was for $500 (it could happen) and it be for $100 and be too embarrassed to put things back. I did this once with a prime rib. It just looked so good and I did not bother to look at the price and almost dropped dead at the check out counter but bought it anyway.  $100 prime rib for 2! It would be too embarrassing to say "oh shit- I can not afford that can I exchange it for hamburger?"
