Nadja and her daughter were happy with their goodies so that started the day off well.

Able to get some things off my chest in the meetings--feel sorry for people who can't go to meetings like this and unload!

Listened to my sponsee's 4th step. She did well and seems to be doing well.

Millie called last night. She and Dennis and her Mom will be here 11/5 and staying until 11/14 or 15. Her Mom is failing. She's 90+. This will all be a challenge for me in trying to get things done before Christmas but will do my best. Maybe Millie and her skills can help. When they were here last year, they did a lot to help around the house and have to keep all that in perspective. Meanwhile, there are 7 doors in the guest room and hope we can get them all hung and out of there before they get here! I'm accepting all prayers and good thoughts! So much to do between now and their visit and between now and Christmas!

Even though I'm feeling very bloated right now, I did manage to lose 2# last week. Don't feel that great and my meditation and exercise were off because of some pretty intense pain in the right side of my chest and shoulder. That seems to have dissapated so hope to get on the "bandwagon" again next week.

RenFaire today. Hope Jenn can get into the spirit of things. From the web site, looks like the TX faire might be bigger than the one in Illinois. We'll see. Kids coming over at 9.

A&M lost yesterday but played a good game. Still, Coach Fran is in hot water and a loss does not bode well for him!

49 degrees at 7:30 AM with high of 78 today. Should be great at the Faire. Same temps throughout the week -- no rain in sight. Good working weather--go0d-to-be-alive weather!

Peace!
