Wolfie Goes Camping...

Great title, huh? Too bad I can't tell you what it means. I've been sworn to secrecy.

Ahhh...Thursday evening, 9:00 p.m. and winding down for the night. It's been a nice day. Ordinary day. Zach is great, the kittens are playful and extremely funny, DQ aced a test, and Christopher is getting ready for a Boy Scout camping trip.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU...
Our newest son-in-law, Josh, has his birthday tomorrow and we're going out for dinner. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JOSH!!!" ...a mere 5-days later my oldest son will leave behind his teenage years and enter his 20's. "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DARRELL!!!" ...and 3 days after that will be my big brother's birthday - he's Darrell, too (my oldest son is named after my two brothers). "HAPPY BIRTHDAY, (UNCLE) DARRELL!!!"

Went to Costco today for shopping and lunch with Ken and the kids. Being the good Weight Watcher person that I am I opted for the turkey wrap instead of their great pizza or even a hot dog. To my amazement (and distress) I later found out that I would have been better off with the pizza. The turkey wrap is LOADED with calories and very heavy on the fat grams. Who'd'a thunk it???

I'm doing really well on WW this time around and even hitting the 'Y' periodically - not as often as I'd like but doing better each week. It's been clear that the weeks I exercise are the weeks I lose the most weight. So far I'm only doing treadmill and exercise bike but it's apparently been enough of a difference from my usual (sedentary) routine.

Abbey's soaps are adorable and she sold quite a few on Mother's Day. She's even had a couple of special-orders. This weekend will find her busy making more. I'm still having a great time making jewelry designs and love learning new things.

Had Abbey to the orthodontist today for a consult. She will need braces eventually but not yet - that was good news. Christopher just had spacers put in this week in preparation for an 'appliance' to keep his teeth where they are - don't want them moving into newly opened spaces.

And that sounds like a good place to wrap things up for this evening.

Tomorrow is Friday and the weekend is about here - yeah! Hope you have a great one!
