What a weekend

I had a good weekend and hope you all did too.. As I am losing weight it is amazing how much easier things are to do. I am more eager to go out and do things fun and to go out and actually work outside without feeling like I am gonna die, Specially in the hot weather. Being overweight makes hot weather unbearable. While I still don't like hot weather(I always said I should live in Alaska) the more weight that comes off makes the hot weather just a bit more tolerable and I am able to work outside much better then before, not to mention as the weight has come off it makes doing things outside much more easier. For instance, just getting on the riding lawn mower was a big chore before not to mention that fact that when I was on it I felt like I was this huge person on this itty, bitty machine. Now I am feeling like it is more proportionate and the lawn mower even seems to drive faster now that the weight load is not so much. I am also finding that I am able to be more flexible, jump around more and really get into my work outside without the pain in my knees when I have to get up and down too much or the pain in my feet because I had been on them to long. This is very cool for me as I really like doing outdoors things. This weekend I had borrowed my uncles John Deere and did allot of work with it, brush hogging, moving rocks, cleaning my barn.., It felt great and I felt like just a good ole country girl. Even sang the theme song to Green Acres a few time..lol.. I even got brave enough and wore a tank top around the property to work on my tan.. Of course, still not brave enough to do that in public but hey baby steps here.



I did get stung by a bee this weekend and for those of you who don't know I am allergic and being stung just causes me big grief. I was a little worried about giving myself the Epie pen shot as I was not sure if my surgery would effect anything but it was fine thankfully. I am actually grateful that this was my first sting of the year. Last year by this time I was on #5 or 6 so I guess that means the new exterminator I hired is doing a much better job then the old one.



This week will hopefully be a good one for me, I of course, have plans to get lots of things done and if I accomplish at least 25% of them I will be happy.



Take care , And I will talk to you all later...
