Reason number 9,427 to lose weight!

My little sister is getting married. This year. November 11. This was decided yesterday and I now have 264 days to become the slinkiest matron of honor this side of the mighty Mississippi. (or at the very least fit back into my black strapless formal from the cruise, which is most likely what I'm wearing). I have 47 days left to fit comfortably into the Pink Blush ensemble for my matron of honor duties for Mary Catherine's wedding. I bombed on the Atkins diet due to some strange gallbladderesque pain coupled with the horribly limited food choices I'd grown sick of. I'm resorting to my old standby, Weight Watchers and exercise, which has proven to work to the tune of a 70 pound loss in the past. Too bad it's so slow to lose weight the healthy way. I'll be starting my new "walk and kick" video in the morning. I hate the process involved in losing weight.


Carson has agreed to assume ringbearer duties and has promised me that he will agree to potty training before the big day. I explained that Pull-ups just don't compliment a tuxedo and that only big boys get to deliver the wedding rings. He's stoked for the time being.

Greg and I had a great weekend away, even though everywhere we went was super crowded. We saw the Harrison Ford movie, Firewall, which was predictable, but ok. We managed to get our of Harrah's casino with a loss of a mere $30, so all in all, we had a great time. I'm ready for another weekend away.

This week is only semi-busy with a meeting for me tomorrow night, church on Wednesday and class on Thursday. So far we have no weekend plans. Yippee! Our house is suffering and needs a good cleaning, so maybe it'll actually get done this weekend. I'm off to do Bible study and get some shut-eye so I can "walk and kick" in the morning! G'night!
