It's been a busy week.  Nathan's been in rehearsals every day and Eric had his foot surgery.  The cat is confused by chairs being put in different places so he can elevate his foot where ever he's sitting.  And by the crutches and the cane. 

We have 4 months and 2 weeks before Eric's final out.  I'm freaking a little.  I've thrown out about a trashbag full of stuff and donated a trashbag full of clothes, but I need to get going on this purging project a little more.

Ok, so to-do list for this week....
1.  Call CYS for Summer
2.  type up agenda for FRG meeting on Thursday
3.  Make up gift baskets for door prizes
4.  Email the two new spouses
5.  Rinse off soda cans and return them to bandhall, along with tubs to organize FRG stuff
6.  Pull all old electronics out of closet and prep them for disposal (wipe memories)
7.  Find copy of "Ready Player One" to read for book club


I think that's enough for 1 week.  Especially since I work day shifts this week.

I survived my Whole 30 challenge.  Not much of a challenge actually since I didn't fully commit.  And once I decided that I wasn't going to cut out the beans and rice at the beginning of it, then it was easy to start adding in bread, pizza, pasta and desserts.  The only thing I really managed to avoid for the whole 30 days was alcohol.  I started out at 233.  I ended up at 227.  So not nearly the drastic impact as the first time.  But again, this is without really exercising at all.  I basically just lost the weight that I had gained back between August when I did it the last time and January.  This tells me that this is my base weight and it's not going to really change without exercise.  BMI index still says I'm obese, and that I have to get down to 195 minimum to be in the 'healthy' range.  So that 30 pound weight loss goal is about right.  But even so, I went up stairs at the hospital Thursday and never felt like I was going to have a heart attack right then, and was barely winded, so I'm still proud of the weight loss I've done.
