Had a nice weekend. We got the house cleaned, with major help from Tammy and Ricky. It actually looks pretty good and I am thinking about hosting my very first poker night. The reason we got the house cleaned and organized was that Tammy had her baby shower Saturday and that seems to have been a success. Tyler had a great time, since she is really liking the idea of being a big sister to Theadora Harper Kensy, when she is born. What a name! But I like it.
I am responsible for Harper, since I have always loved Harper Lee's novel To Kill a Mockingbird, as well as the movie.

Celebrated my friend's birthday with lunch at a Mexican restaurant on Sunday. I am really proud of myself. I had a very lean steak and with lettuce, tomatoes, and guacamole. Also, a very small portion of refried beans. So far, I am doing well on my WOE (way of eating). Went to the gym this morning and was down 3 pounds. Yeah!!

Watched Entourage last night. That is one GREAT series. Also, watched the first 10 minutes of Deadwood this morning, while I was getting ready for work. Except for the swear words, Deadwood is the closest thing to Shakespeare I have seen on television or the movies. The language is so complex and full of rhythm, that I often have to go back and replay. Very cool! People focus so much on the bad language that they miss the brilliant writing. Of course, that is just my opinion.

Until I post again....

Ouch! Boy, am I sore!!! Went to the gym this morning....First time in months!!! Just did 30 minutes on the treadmill, but that was enough. Maybe tomorrow I will do some swimming/pool walking. I am also looking at adding weight training to my routine....as soon as I have a routine!

I've been on program as far as eating for going on three weeks. By that I mean, I have pretty much eliminated bread, rice, potatoes, etc from my diet. Now, I am concentrating on eating healthy fats and reducing cholesterol. I made George Stella's Chille Huevos Rellenos (eggs, sausage baked in a muffin tin) last night, but used egg beaters. I also used sweet Italian sausage, but will likely switch to turkey sausage soon. Also, I had oatmeal with blueberries.

I'll keep posting!
