Eating and Gaining

What a busy time we have had this week. My birthday was here and many of my very best friends wanted to take me out to eat and of course, I let them! My sister carried me out on Monday; Tuesday, my other sister took me out to lunch; Wednesday I rested; Thursday, 5 of us ladies went to the big shopping outlet that is about 2 hours away and we shopped most of the day; Friday, another friend took me to brunch; and, today, another friend took me to breakfast. I must tell you that I did gain a couple of pounds this week! I must go on a diet! This is just not the right time of the year to plan on dieting! We have a luncheon at church tomorrow; Monday, my office from which I retired always invites the retirees to join them in their thanksgiving celebration. Of course, I wouldn't miss that!

The grandkiddies came over today while their mom was Christmas shopping. I had them helping me bring boxes down from the attic so that I could begin the wrapping process. I didn't get started tonight as I had hoped however, since I was busy fixing cookies and deviled eggs for the lunch tomorrow. Now my alma mater is playing football and I need to watch that game; I need to support my favorite college! So, I'm outta here!
