I don't even know right now

what week is this? Nine?

I'm posting when I should have been asleep considering I'm meeting my sis downtown for a 10am Chicago architecture boat tour along the river. will be the 2nd boat tour this summer with my sissy :). The first was just the lake's shoreline.

Perhaps tomorrow will offer more sunlight than that day did but the forecast calls for rain tomorrow night so the clouds may already be gathering. hmmmm. well....

Anyway, I read my last post and realized that while I think I'd weighed myself that day, I didn't put my new weight in my blog post. I recorded it on my data chart but I don't know what my body was doing but I'd dropped from 370.2 (on doc's scale, .4 on mine) last Tuesday (which itself was about a 3 pound drop from I think the previous Friday) to 367.8 last Thursday. Again, digital scales and they've been pretty accurate so far. I don't care if it was just water weight..I'M SUPER GLAD! I had to resist the mini urge to step on the scale today. I'll try to wait until Saturday even though I'll be returning back home from the swanky downtown hotel getaway I've arranged for my mom, my son, and myself this weekend. A chain of 3 hotels are holding a discounted rates for teachers promo so I jumped on the opportunity! I wanted to just have my mom go and then I'd stay home with the wee one but she'd feel like a fish outta water trying to get around downtown I already know this. Trying to keep up with her room key and money and cellphone and IDs and all kinds of stuff that would keep her from relaxing! Can't afford the room service I'm sure even though they have this lil free wine hour with appetizers and breakfast or some such something. need to read the details again. I'll get a free bottle of wine though for mentioning the deal!

So yeah, I also booked a private getaway at the one of the 3 locations I'd wanted to stay out in the first place but it wasn't available. however, I learned on Sunday that I'm going to have to try and change the date. It might have to be pushed back to December :(. will see. if so, then .ugh...meh. will see.


Okey dokey, I really need to sleep. my knee hurts...i need to start walking! I'll do more tomorrow. maybe get off a few stops early and walk to lunch from there. ah, while i am up, i should look for some cheapy places that won't break the bank or my wallet so horribly. would like to do something other than the grilled chicken wrap at Mcdonalds. i should start getting that with no sauce though if I get it again. forgot about that.

NIGHT ALL!

  1. Oh, I love Chicago. My sister used to live in Rockford and we spent a lot of time in Chicago. One year it seemed there was a different parade on every other street. I'm so jealous of your weekend getaway! Great job on the losses. I love digital scales!!! Blessings--Bonnie

  2. You deserve a break! I hope it comes sooner rather than later!

    I'm so happy for you! You're breaking down the barriers that you've allowed to hold you back so long. And congrats on that weight loss!!! I never cared if it was water weight or not...if the scale shows a smaller number---I'm taking credit for every single pound!!!

    Blessings and my best always
