Stalled

A cold, the evil Thanksgiving holiday, and a general blahness have led to extreme sloth in the last three weeks. So getting on the scale today was frightening.

With more than a little surprise, I saw only a four pound gain over two weeks since last weigh-in. I had braced myself for worse. Yay, me. Sort of.

Got to get back on track.

The past week of no work and all play has proven an elixir to my weary soul. Even so, the prospect of work tomorrow is demoralizing. I keep forcing myself not to take "just one peek" at my work email. It would spiral into a complete review of my inbox, and an action plan for tomorrow morning. Best to enjoy what is left of the weekend.

Many fun times over the past 9 days.

Visited my peeps in NOVA. Met Marleigh - the sweetest American bull dog. She wouldn't fit in my bag, or she would have come home with me. Actually, it was fear of the hub's reaction to dragging home a dog that kept me from stealing her!

Saw LauraLea and Tripp Fabulous. Seven months pregnant and still rockin' - that's one tough lady!

Shopping on Monday with Courtney. She who still hasn't guest blogged. Hint, hint... Managed to finally replace my falling apart shoes. I hate shopping.

Tuesday napped through a coffee date with my favorite bartender, Xtina. She has forgiven me.

Wednesday through Friday visited the hometown. Late lunch and coffee with mom, Sarah, and WALT at the local greasy spoon. Mmm...chocolate chip waffle (four pounds, remember...I did half with my mom, at least).

Saturday another Megan sighting, this time on my turf. Took her and her momma to my favorite local coffee shop. They were duly charmed.

Last night slumbered in my bed with new flannel sheets. This morning - extra difficult crawling out of bed.

I love fall.
