Looks like I wait to join until August.
I got my new power scooter delivered.
Then when going to sign the papers, discovered that insurance company did not BUY it for me, they are renting it for me, for 14 months.

DH is Sooooo angry. It took up all of yesterday...preparing the house to receive the new scooter, all that huge pile of paperwork, going to the DMV to get the Handicapped stickers and stuff, and then it stormed.

But I can practice my patience. At 268.0...down from over 305, I have a long ways to go.

My primary care physician is now gone...transferred to a ship stationed in Virginia. I have no idea who they will assign to me next...another watch watcher or someone who genuinely cares.

Nutritionist is also going, and won't be seen by new one until mid August.

So I am setting my own goals. Make them or not, they are what I am shooting for. By the end of July I would like my numbers to be in the 250s...and before the end of 2010, I would like my numbers to no longer begin with the number 200 and...

I am still too weak to do much sewing...most days I ache down to the bone itself. Muscles are not feeling so great either.

But like the one lady stated, exercise first...sew later.
For me it is a bit different.
Do what ever chores I can in the a.m. before my body just will not anymore. Rest a bit and then see what I can get done for sewing.

So almost 40 pounds lost, and I am still wearing the same cloths.
Still can not even fit into a size 4x.

But I have heard the stories of the struggles of my pioneering ancestors. I know I have within me what it takes to persevere.
No turning back, this covered wagon is bound for the promised land....so 115 or bust!

Maybe August can be some real fun fall prints? That just might motivate me enough to be stronger....

But I am still here for sharing, support and such.

Just not feeling so chipper or energetic.
