Such entertainment...

Oh, what a day...Today my daughter had her check up with the endocrinologist in St. Louis. It is about a 2 hour car ride for us from where we live. I took the camera as I always do & lilttle did I know that she took some interesting pictures while passing the time in the back seat. I didnt realize this until I got home & went to print out a picture of someone else. I had to laugh outloud. I have posted one of them for you all to see!! This is only one of many so I will soon have a layout for you all to enjoy!
In other news........this was a pretty decent week. As some of you know, I love NASCAR, well actually, I love DALE EARNHARDT JR. About a month ago he announced his decision to leave his current race team in which his father founded & his stepmother now runs. We have all been in suspence of which team he will join. He made that announcement Wednesday & the winner is....Hendrick Motorsports. For him, that is good. Some of us are a little disappointed since he will be teamed with Jimmie Johnson & Jeff Gordon (not my favorites). I am excited to see how he does next season & I am hopeful he starts winning races again. ok, ok, enough about nascar....
I started weight watchers this past Friday. Its something I've done before but never stuck with. A visit with my doctor changed everything this time. My cholestorol is high. I wasn't surprised....just in denial!! On top of that I have had high blood pressure for 4 1/2 yrs now & I was a diabetic when I was pregnat. Plus my knees & feet are starting to ache alot at work since I'm on them all night. I joined WW online & faithfully followed the plan for a week now. My starting weight was 173.9 & this week it is 168.1.....so....lets hope I continue on this path. I will let you all know its going each week when I weigh in. And if anyone else wants to talk about their weight struggles feel free.....I'm always willing!!
I haven't done a whole lot of scrapping this week. Actually I only did 1 layout. Its for a challenge so I cant post it yet. This is my 1st time having a blog so I apologize for rambling! I'm excited to now have a place to share my thoughts.
Happy Scrapping,
Jen
