I enjoyed myself and didn't even think or worry about "The "D" word". But I have been given a little incentive to lose a few pounds. Last night we went out to dinner with my step-mother. After we got back to her house we were going through pictures of dad (I'm a scrapbooker and need lots of pictures to make a history album of his life) anyway...all of a sudden she jumps up and goes upstairs to grab some stuff. She brings down a leather jacket of my dads and asks if my husband would like it. It was too small for him and me. She then says she didn't even think about me wanting some of his old jackets...she has more! So I asked to see them and the very first one she pulled out was his winter jacket. It's a heavy woolen type jacket with leather sleeves. He got it on his 30 year anniversary of working at the plant. It's a VERY nice coat. AND I GOT IT!!! I was soooo excited. I'm going to have "Brownie's daughter" embroidered on it to match the embroderie of his plant and such on the side of it. Although it does fit now it would really fit better if I could just drop a few pounds. So...that's my incentive. I want to make sure I look okay wearing my dads coat. I GOT MY DADS COAT!!! I cried on the way home cause it still smelled like him. Oh no, starting to cry now. Just so emotional and happy with it.

So, I know you did well restraining yourself from the stuffing! But how about them yams and desserts!!! :)
