Good point about being mad if you don't get to eat; and kinda mad later if you do get to eat. Hmmmm.

Tuesday, August 25 127.2 More powerwashing today. I also need to get some grass seed for the backyard. I think I'll try to work on growing more grass before it gets really rainy and the dogs start tracking in mud. More landscaping plans in the next few weeks: bark, crushed gravel for a walkway. Gut...

Re: automated eating tracker
Well Pinkie and Linda - now I think both Sexy and I are feeling kind of .... reluctant .... to plunge into the stress and extra work involved of house selling and buying. However, I think we are in agreement that we need to get this laminate done, and then we have several other projects to work on. ...

I totally know that feeling of thinking of how much work it is, Pinkie! :-) The real estate agent basically said - yes - put in laminate, and yes - hire a landscaper. Otherwise not much to do! She didn't even think I should repaint all the interior - that instead I could just wash it. Anyway, for th...

Pinkie - do those headbands make you extra hot though? I haven't been wanting to pull my hair off my forehead because of fear of a burn, too. So my hair has just been floppy-floppy-floppy this summer.

My hedges are officially beautiful, shaped like elephants. Haha just kidding. But I am making good progress.

Re: Am I A Failure If I Can Only Follow Two No S Diet Principles?
Hi Gabby - Do what you can do. As I often tell people, the most important thing is to find your plan and stick to it. There's no "right or wrong" with a way of eating. It's about what works for us. Everything has trade-offs.
