DINNER WITH OLD FRIENDS – OK

Last night we went to a new restaurant with two couples. We have known one of the couples since we were married and the other way before. We were celebrating the fact that one of my friends got good news about her cancer. We wre with her on Sunday and she was so upset because she thought the news was bad. What a change yesterday. I certainly can’t blame her. I had delicious lamb chops.
One of the couples lives in Toronto so we don’t see them evry often. When we go to Toronto there are just too many friends and family to visit. Theys eem to be doing very well. They travle a lot.
Yesterday we went for blood tests and I had a bone density. Hope to get good results whenw e go to the doctor next Friday. In the afternoon we went to see a house nearby that hubby has had his eye on. It’s a bungalow. I was very disappointed in the house. It was shabby inside; the rooms were small etc. Theya lkso wanted a lot of money for it. I much prefer the house that is still for sale on our street.
My daughter called on Sunday or should I say that hubby called her. She is doing ok. On Thursday she has some type of "test" so is very nervous. She says if she doesn’t pass she will have to take an extra year. I certainly hope not!
When I was at the hospital she weighed me and I was 211. A few years ago I was up to 236 so I was really happy. I guess going on the treadmill and not eating after supper is working.
It’s 5:30 a.m. I think I’ll go back to bed. Today my friend is coming and we’ll work on our scrapbooks. At night we are going to a book club meeting from out March of the Living trip. It’s hard to believe that it is almost two years ago already.

Sounds like a very positive, upbeat day for you! Great job on the weight loss too. I think I may have lost some myself by being sick. Not a good way to lose it but I will take it at this point.

I appreciate your honesty about your true weight. Not many people would give out numbers like that! Good for you that you’ve lost 25 pounds! That calls for more lamb chops!

Delighted to hear the good news about your friend. Good for you on the weight loss, too! Sounds like you’ve changed your lifestyle in a way that is definitely working for you!!!
