I want to start by saying HI to everyone, I sure hope you are having a wonderful day today! THe sun is shining out here today and it is gorgeous out! I really hope the entire weekend is like this. I look forward to our long family walks on days like today. Ya know it really seems like I never have a "big"loss, its always small, or sometimes even staying the same, or even a time or two I gained but the one thing I have noticed through this entire process, it that for every pound I loose, I gain energy and I surely gain confidence! Now I still have a LONG way to go but I know I will get there! One day at a time. I am determined by the time we all go on our cruise I have the confidence I need to wear a swim suit around all of you

We haven't updated our photo's for some time, but we will this weekend, we were going to last weekend but I had a hair appointment on Wednesday so of course I wanted to wait to show you all my "new do". I haven't been to the swim center as much this week as I normally am and I sure do miss it. I have just been so busy with Relay for Life stuff, I am co-chairing the Relay for LIfe here in Rapid City this year and although I love it, and love being so involved it is trully time consuming. But I have been on my treadmill and going for walks outside In a few days I will be blogging more about my involvement in the Relay for Life(for those of you who aren't aware of what the Relay is it is a cancer walk) and I will be giving information to all of you if any of you are interested in helping out a worthwhile cause, cancer research! But for now, you all have a wonderful day and I look forward to chatting with you all again soon And just a little note to say there are several of us trying really hard to plan a wonderful reunion and I can't wait to meet all who can attend!
