Good Morning Friend
There has been a lot going on around here lately. Let me start with the real important stuff. I know all of you are awaiting the weekly weigh in results. 1.4 lbs I KNOW I KNOW, BIG DEAL RIGHT? Well I was hoping for a bigger loss than 1 FRECKEN POUND, but I guess it’s better than gaining a pound. When I was doing Weight Watchers three years ago I could drop 5 lbs the first week alone. Now that I’m 43 years old it’s so much harder. I’m not giving up I’ll do better this week , I’m going to bump up the walking pace and drink a little more water. I do feel much better now that I am walking regularly and not so dehydrated.

On another note

Sunday was the DINE BY DESIGN for A LADY'S NIGHT OUT that Kim invited me to attend. Let me just say WAY TO GO KIM! There where about 9 tables all beautifully decorated by their designer. I forgot to take pictures of the other tables after seeing Kim’s fabulous Shabby Chic place setting. I couldn't’t have added or taken anything from the table to make it any more beautiful. Kim hand made sweet slip covers out of vintage sheets and chenille bed spreads to make those cold ugly metal folding chairs girly. We enjoyed a lovely delouse meal served to us by the hostess's husband. HOW NICE the evening was felled with good conversation and good food.

Here are some pictures for your enjoyment

Each guest received a vintage salt and pepper set and their name place setting as a gift from the hostess

HOW SWEET

Thank You Kim

Sweet Endings

Wishing you a charmed day , Love Julia

On a different note:

I have started Weight Watchers to help me get back into my swim suit figure. hehehehe Positive thinking right!! I’m just going to lay it out their so I can be accountable to the whole blogging world. I weighed in at 168.2 on Monday. My short term goal is to lose 10 lbs before the Seniors graduation. I will post every Tuesday with my progress. Last nights meal was really yummy and every low in points. Here are pictures of my tasty dinner.

Pan fryed salmon and grilled asparagus

Homemade shrimp cocktail

The beautiful china is from the sale in Warrenton. There are place settings for 12 for only 35.00 and they where boxed in two wooden Del Monte boxes that are worth 35.00 each. Lucky me!!! I hope you have a charmed week end and happy hunting

Hi Girlfriends
This has been a very full week for me and mine
After returning from the coast on Sunday I had a little cleaning and straighten

to do around the house because the Senior was home alone this week end.
Monday the Friday Girls headed for the Warrenton Spring Antique Show
What a Day!!!
We had a wonderful time shopping all day

of course we didn’t get to see half of what there is to see at the show

So we decided to come back on Wednesday to pick up where we left off

Here are some pictures of what we saw on our Wednesday outing

I forgot my camera on Monday

so please check out Kim’s Blog for pictures of Monday

Us girls have to look out for one another
