Just a few thoughts…

  1. We probably won’t go to the Knitting Expo at the Mall of America next year, unless we’re looking for a place where we can go stand with several hundred other women, shuffling along in line, for hours on end (moo).  And I do mean hours.  Free Stuff Received:  2 skeins of yarn, 2 magazines, 2 crochet hooks.  I vote next year we skip the standing in line and go straight to lunch!
  2. DH has a follow-up appointment with the doc Tuesday morning.  Think good thoughts for him.  He’s doing well, and he is being very tolerant.  It ain’t easy being a patient, and he has little prior experience.
  3. You can’t have it all.  I always knew that YOU couldn’t have it all; it’s just hard to understand when I can’t have it all!  We planned a wonderful vacation with other family members for this summer, and when I checked the calendar, I realized I will miss the county fair.  I know that sounds trivial, but I really WANT to enter stuff at the fair and then go and admire my treasures!  But not enough to skip a great vacation, so that’s the way it’s gonna have to be.
  4. Monday, Feb 15th, I did 5 whole minutes on the elliptical trainer, and I didn’t die.  My plan is to go downstairs first thing every morning and keep working at getting reacquainted with exercise, and work my way back up to 30 minutes.  Why can’t chocolate make you thin and exercise make you fat?
