10% 10% 10% Yay! This morning, I hit my 10% goal! Yay! Exciting! That means (and yes, you can do the math now, I am just too self-conscious to put my actual weight but anyone can figure it out) I’ve lost 21.6 lbs! Yay! Am v. excited. Losing weight is fun. Tee hee!

This means I lost 3.6 lbs in a week. But I gained .8 lbs last week, which I think was fluid weight, so really it isn’t as dramatic as it sounds. I’m surprised WW didn’t yell at me but losing that much in one week. Who knows, I may gain next week to offset this loss. But I will do everything in my power (mwah, mwah, mwah!) to make sure that doesn’t happen. Don’t want to lose my 10% star, after all.

Last night, George and I bought a lawnmower, one of the manual reel-type mowers. We put it together last night (which only involved putting the handle on it) and then took it for a test mow. Our yard is completely dark, as we have no lights out there, so we couldn’t see what we had done, but this morning, I was pleased to note that the mower works perfectly. Yay! So today after work I’m going to tackle the whole yard.

Oh yeah, in other exciting news, I heard from my friend Debbie last night. She and her husband Mike (good friends of mine who live in Houston) are adopting a 5 year old girl from China. Her name is Fufu. If that isn’t the cutest name in the world, I don’t know what is. But they are going to change her name. I guess Fufu could be subject to teasing because of her name if they didn’t change it. But I shall always call her little rabbit Fufu. (Oh yeah, I guess that’s how kids in the schoolyard could be mean. I fear I will be “mean Aunt Pam” instead of “fun, crazy Aunt Pam.”) But she is very cute and I can’t wait to meet her. (Also I should mention here their 7 year old son, Christian, who I used to visit once a month when he was a baby. I wish I could still get away to visit them like that.)
