Hidden Teasures, Fast Food Kills, and a Baby Shower

So we got some special gifts this weekend. A "new" used piano and a beautiful art deco glass display case! I get to rearrange the house. One of the downstairs couches is going upstairs and is going to be reupholstered. Then the piano and are deco piece are going in the front room. So those things all worked out great!

I ate more fast food this weekend than I have eaten in almost 5 years. I felt horrible so ever since Monday I have been on a detox lots of fresh fruits and veggies. Tons of water. I couldn't believe it, but I gained 6 lbs. this weekend. Fast food is terrible for you! I even tried to ordered things with mostly veggies. I guess we should have gone to a non-drive through, but man Judy is in love with those places right now. I have to get those 6 lbs. back off or no going out for me.

Judy's baby shower was beautiful! About 50 people came which seemed like a ton all in one place, but then I remind myself that I did have four showers and if you total the people from that it would have been over 80 people in one place. So not as crowded as I think. She got TONS of gifts. Crazy amounts of gifts. I knit her a little dress and booties out of this beautiful bamboo yarn in the colors green and purple. I didn't get to hang out with her much during the shower since she had to talk to everyone. I was the only friend from high school there. It felt good to have known her for so long so much history. Little Olivia will have many playmates because their were 9 other girls there who were also pregnant and having girls. These women were from her church. Everyone said that I dress I made was the cutest dress they had ever seen and could have come from a boutique for $100s. So that felt good.

I am glad deadline knitting is over and now I can focus on changing my life for the better! I am going to focus my energy on shrinking!
