The days are sunny and hot. But I really have not been bothered by the heat as much as in the past. We have been swimming, walking, visiting friends, seeing more "tourist traps", and visiting favorite spots. The children have collected enough sea shells to keep interested parties entertained for hours. The time we had at Sarah and Matt's was nice. I can not believe how big the children grow in such a short amount of time.
For those who know what has been going on in the personal, here is the update. The doc says that I have been doing real well with my diet. I thought that it might kill me but now that it has been over three weeks, I have the vantage point of being able to look back and say...slow progress but progress. I'm only down 6-8lbs. but my clothes are looser and some of the joint swelling is gone. I have a lot more energy, and my sweet cravings are more controlled. My hubby has agreed that I'm back to a closer version of me and he thought that he would join me on my diet. It cannot hurt him. Yes, it was tailored for me but he will benefit. So part of my temptation is gone if he does not bring things around. :)
Our trip to TN was great. It is always fun to see friends, but four days was too short. Everyone was super tired and happy by the time we had to pack up. The nice thing about hubby's work is that we travel with him and can be close enough to see lots of people and sights that otherwise would be difficult. Williamsburg was pretty neat too. We liked that the shops had the actual craft/talent being performed. Just like it would have then. I think the wig maker was pretty neat. They had a hunt for the children and I must admit that hubby and I got into it as well. We are just giant children after all. :)
That is the short of it. Have a great sunny day. I'm heading to the pool right after lunch...I must work on my tan. ;)
We were glad you visited! Matt really enjoyed talking with Frank! It was such a blessing to have help with the dishes and I was happy to catch up on your news. :)
