Our Sunday night was spent preparing Valentines for school today. I love that my 10 year old still finds joy in that. My 4 year olds first words this morning, were...."but Mommy, we have to get more heart lollipops!", we ran out last night. I do believe the child lost sleep over that. We had a fantastic weekend. We celebrated my baby sister's "40th" birthday. We had a great night out. Yesterday at our church we had a meeting about a wellness challenge we are engaging in. Kind of a "Pound for Pound" health & weight loss thing. The speakers were really knowledgeable and incredibly inspiring. I took away a really good tip. Of course I'll share it with you. Ok, he said, "You have 21 meals in a week. Make it your goal to do 18 of them right." (Meaning, mostly veg, avoiding bad fats, whole grains vs. processed, etc...) I like that. It is tangible, gives a little room for grace, and I feel like that is something I can start with. Losing 20 lbs would go a long way toward making me feel better. When my face gets pudgy it makes me feel VERY unattractive, somehow my gut can get fat and I don't sweat it, but my face, now that is another story. So I started with oatmeal this morning, check! One meal done right!! 17 more to go!
I went to a cool women's networking meeting the other night. It was with an organization called Heartlink . It was at some one's house. An awesome dinner was served. Tables set, lovely hospitality, and about 20 very interesting women were there. We each got 3 minutes to introduce ourselves and tell a bit about our business's. Most of the women knew each other already. Many of the women present had business's that sell through direct marketing. Most of the big ones were represented, and a few new ones I had never heard of but found interesting. There were also women with other business's like insurance, legal services, printing, etc... It is great to meet like minded people, and I can definitely see the benefits of attending regularly. The bad part however, is it leaves you wanting to go shopping! All of a sudden, I MUST have the new mango cutter from Pampered Chef, and I am yearning to freshen up my candles, and I NEED a hole new wardrobe from CABi . ...
