This week, I'm thinking...
- That if I have one more birthday celebration (mine or anyone else's) I really won't want to get on the scale again anytime soon.
- That going out to dinner two days in a row on weekdays also means I miss two consecutive days of exercise.
- See first bullet point above.
- That I've seen more family and friends in the last six days than in the last six weeks.
- That I'm enjoying that, but I'm also looking forward to a quiet weekend.
- That I won't get that quiet weekend for awhile since we're going to see DD at college this weekend.
- That I can't wait to see her new living arrangements.
- That I'm hoping we don't have to buy her anything else for her dorm room.
- That it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone that when I got my new Artisan Pasta book from UPS today, the very first page I flipped to had a recipe for Chocolate Pasta.
- That I apparently have an unfailing radar for chocolate.
- That maybe I can convince my husband to like pasta if it's got chocolate involved.
- As long as it doesn't also involve melty cheese.
- Because that makes him gag.
- That the dogs are sticking close because after watching DD's taillights go down the driveway Monday they're terrified all their humans will start disappearing on them.
- That end-of-summer flies are the most obnoxious kind of flies of all.
- That three flies can be obnoxious enough to feel like there's 60 in the house.
- That they keep running into me as I'm walking down the hall because they don't fly out of the way fast enough.
- How dogs seem to want to eat flies.
- That the sight of Sammy trying to catch a fly is entertaining.
- But that I hope I'm out of the room if he ever does catch one and eat it.
- Hashtag gross.
