It was a fun filled weekend with a lot of activity. My son had his first football camp which was exciting; he's 12. I am so happy for my kids to do sports of any kind to keep them active and give them an active healthy lifestyle. I hope it is something they will love and continue on their own. Some of my best memories are and continue to be around doing sports. Many of my closest friends are the ones who I have met through sports or who I do athletic activities with.
He's number 67. They look so cute with their big shoulder pads and little chicken legs.
I am so excited we finally got our doggie backpack in the mail. We ordered it on EBAY and it came on Friday.
Tessa was pretty good with it on. She was a little slower but did not try to rub it off or anything. I think since she was used to the dog sled harness we put on her it wasn't too new of a sensation. Then I had the brilliant brainstorm of using it for her to help us deliver the kids papers for their paper route. So this is Tessa with her new job as Doggie Paper Girl. She was great with it on and it made the route a lot faster. We just have to watch if there are any cats or other dogs on our route ..... yes, she is a puppy and we are still training her.
Food this weekend was good and bad. I made a lot of good choices:
This was a great lunch, a salad with a great sandwich with avocados.
I love this Hairy Hill Mustard. I think I got it from Saskatchewan but I am not sure? It is very hot and has a nice flavor.
I did step on the scale earlier this week (before the weekend) and I was thrilled that it was down. And then I was telling myself "keep up all the good work and by next weigh day you will be down a good amount". And as soon as I do that something inside me freaks out and I just want to eat. What is that??? Why do I do that to myself???? I did not completely lose it and eat everything bad but I certainly had too much over the course of the weekend. NOT pictured here are pizza, cheese bread, a chocolate sundae and various other healthy foods but with portions that were too big. AHHHHhhhhh..... I don't like doing well on the week and then over indulging on the weekend.
But I know it is up to me to change this and be MODERATE and not equate food to fun. Food can be enjoyable but it is not the center of fun.
Anyway still more work to be done and I am not giving up.
So Sunday morning I had just gotten back from a walk with Tessa and I was walking up the front sidewalk and I bent down to pull a dandelion from the front flower bed and I found this. Seriously!! I was so pumped! WoW - if that isn't a sign I don't know what is!
I took a photo of the back in case anyone out there wants to play the lottery. If they hit it big then they can send me a million dollars for the good Karma!
Well that's all for now. Have a great night everyone!
