I warned you!

I told you my month of July was going to be a blur! I can't believe it is almost over! The vacation took up the first part of the month followed by the family cook book and then the reunion. We are now at the end of week 3 and all I can think that I did this week was throw my back out! I know I know...I am not old enough to have done that but I found out at the reunion that it runs in the family. We all can throw out our back doing very simple tasks like picking up a towel and hanging it up....or picking up a grocery bag of garbage and turning to throw it in a larger bag of trash. I, however, did it this time by picking up my baby bubble. What a pain! I was flat on my back for 24 hours. ACK! Kat even came over and checked on me and was nice enough to mention that my house was the messiest she had ever seen it...thanks for that...that made me feel real good! HRUMPH!!!! Anyway the back is better, just a little sore. I got a phone call yesterday morning from a gal that I am helping next week during VBS (Vacation Bible School) telling me she had no idea how to decorate the room and that she did some checking around and found out that I was a creative person and that she was leaving it to me to do! Well thanks! You only gave me 48 hours to decorate!!! ACK!!!!!!!! VBS starts next week! I would like to know who she talked to because no one at this church really knows me yet, except for my next door neighbor and she hasn't talked to anyone. I wasn't able to extract the information last night when we met to start the decorating. I had a plan and was ready to take action within a couple of hours. I'll try to remember to take pictures for you all. Speaking of pictures I know I have been promising pictures for some time now. I am planning on a big catch up picture look at party soon. LOL! I haven't forgotten. To finish out the month next week the mini bubbles have swim lessons in the a.m and VBS in the p.m. Also our best friend and best man of our wedding is getting married himself this Saturday. SO there is rehearsal and rehearsal dinner and wedding and reception next weekend! Not to mention this weekend we need to buy a suit for Mr. Bubbles and get a gift for the happy couple. Have I tired you all out yet?? LOL! OH! I am patting myself on the back here but I have lost 5 pounds! YIPEE! I had lost quiet a bit of weight about a year ago and have kept it off and now I decided it was time to lose some more. I don't know what my target is....I will never be a skinny mini and I will always weigh more than I look because of muscle...yet another inherited trait... but I would like to take more off....maybe 5 to 10 more pounds. I'll try to remember to keep you all updated. Have a fantastic weekend everyone!

I think you look fantastic.
Sorry to hear about your back, it might be a good idea to find a good reliable Chiropractor maybe by refferal who can look at your xrays.
I've been to one for years and he has helped me tremendously from nerve and muscle damage I suffered years ago.
Many health insurance plans will now cover office visits, so it's just a thought.

Yes, you wore me out with all this activity, I think I need a nap.:)

If you figure out a way to lose weight painlessly, info me on it. I've tried starving ,treadmilling, eating tasteless food. It does me little good.
