This and That

See? He really does smile!

Exercise: I inadvertently got a bike ride in yesterday when Paco the wonder (or should I say wander) dog decided to go to the neighborhood park by himself. Sometimes he's just like a kid, fixated on fun and not the consequences of his actions. Of course, by the time I got to the park and called him, he came blasting out from some bushes with, I swear, a huge grin on his face...argh, it's hard to be mad at such a happy dog!

Diet: I'm eating more than I should be in order to lose weight (have I mentioned that it's hard to diet with kids in the house?), and even though we went to Wings n More for dinner tonight, I only had 5 hot wings, maybe 10 fries, and 1 1/2 chicken tenders...oh, and two celery sticks, haha. I gave the rest of the food that was in my basket to my human garbage disposal, er, husband. What makes this day a diet success for me is that later on, my kids went out to DQ for Blizzards, and came home with them, plus one for my husband. They had offered to get one for me, but I said no. And ate my nightly apple. So really, I'm ahead of the game, at least for today!

And now I'm off to watch "What Not To Wear" which always inspires me to keep on this track because I want to buy new, smaller clothes - soon!
