Yay...its MONDAY (I never would've thought)

Definitely unusual for me to be saying "Yay its Monday"! However, today I went to Weight Watchers (Week 6) and weighed in to find out I lost 7.2lbs. I am stoked. Last week I really worked hard at it. Kickboxing (Turbo Kick) is GREAT! I'm loving it! I have found my routine of doing my work out in the morning and then any spare evening I add an extra workout at Zumba at 24hr Fitness. So I'm thrilled I've found my groove. The eating on the Flex program went very well for me, I find when I'm more honest in my points counting - I found where I was over rationalizing with my points...haha. Fun while it lasted - but I seriously need to get on back on the wagon and loose real weight. I'm feeling great! I'm looking forward each week to achieving my goal - seeing the pounds drop off has been a tremendous boost to my self esteem. Its great. More progress with the Grant writing and direction we need to take - so we are seeing light there too. I'm home and after paying some bills online, thought I'd drop a line in to share how grateful I am to be healthier today than I was last week, last month or evern last year. Its great! I hope it continues to get even better.

Today a lot more emails back and forth on PROP 8 - more negative attention from the No's on Prop 8 towards our Yes on Prop 8 supporters. Even to the point of protesting outside our sacred Oakland Temple. Now thats just pathetic and below the belt to go there. Its a reality of who is on the Lords side and who will suffer serious consequences for their evil ridicule. At least we can sleep at night with peace of mind, knowing we are all on the Lords errand. My continued prayers for anyone who faced by this type of retaliation. God Speed!


Stake Conference was yesterday. The running theme was on Families and the Temple! Of course extremely appropriate to our current day. Temple attendance at the Sacramento Temple has dropped and they think all of the rallying for Yes-Prop 8 might be one of the causes - but none the less we need to all remember to be faithful in our attendance and this important work. An invitation to those like myself to RETURN and COME BACK! I truly felt the Saviors hand in that invitation and took it very personally! And I will.


I smell din dins! I'm off to see what Lisa has cooked for tonight. Yum!
