Yes, I know I'm late, explanation of busyness to follow. No, I didn't get my belly button pierced. It's 'the chasm', remember?! Nothing to be down about as I've cheered it up with another holiday decoration! It's a huge plastic ring, and trust me, the ring part doesn't come close to 'bottoming out' (see below). Oh, and note my tanner belly...no I didn't wear the bikini to mulch (sunless tanner cream), but now I'm ready if I ever get invited to a pool party!
I'm back to writing the book after a long week-and-a-half-off. I spent the first part of that planting new bushes, removing old ones, and weeding. The mulch pile arrived last Wednesday evening (two days early) so DH decided to take off Friday to get it going. DS and DD were away this weekend in different cities so we decided to get our major spring jobs finished up. We spent Friday and Saturday mulching. If we weren't tired enough from that, Sunday was spent taking everything out of the garage...I did that part while DH took DS2 to lunch and a movie (just because we decided to make it a 'working weekend' didn't mean he didn't need some holiday fun). When they got back I had them move the last heavy things out and then we hosed the garage down and put it all back. Monday was partially spent boxing up DS1's college stuff (yes, it was still sitting in my Dining Room), and rearranging all DD's stuff in the Clubhouse out back so we could fit DS1's stuff in (along with the four large pieces of furniture the two of them bought in our neighborhood garage sale). Last night we just enjoyed all our hard work and had a great rib dinner with the kids/others returning home.
So time to refocus on the book. I'm writing now about:

I can't say that there are new foods I love more now - and it's only been 7 weeks as of today, so don't know how much I can add here. But what I will say is that if I chew chew chew and take a minute or so between each bite - a lot less food is a blank of a lot more satisfying! I get to enjoy each bite now and I'm noticing flavors now that I didn't notice before because I just scarfed it all down. I started playing with eating slower before being banded but since being banded, now the band tells me to slow the blank down and I'm getting slower and slower by the day and noticing how flavors play together more now than ever. It's all so very interesting and good!
Glad you had a busy weekend and so glad to hear that the osteo wasn't a problem this time around. I can't wait to see pictures of what you've done - I know you have a gorgeous yard!!!
