It’s October!

Did you know that Fall is here? The leaves are changing color quickly here in Maryland. I had Greg take out the Halloween/Fall things last weekend. We’re going to go through them today and Sunday and start decorating!

I’ve been doing well working out and with the Jenny Craig program. I did get weighed this past Monday, but, gained .8 of a lb. so I didn’t post about it. I really chalk it up to two things. Stress and PMS. Don’t they usually go hand-in-hand? I know that I’ve been losing inches even though I’m not losing weight. Everything is fitting differently. I will try to post on Monday with an update after my WI! (weigh in)

Today all of us went to the eye doc. This is the first time we’ve been since early 2007 for Jac and I and late 2007 for Greg. As he’s retired, he gets a free one, then again in 2 years. Jac and I paid this time as in March 2009 we would be eligible and we’ve both been having problems with our vision lately. Her eyes did get a little worse as did mine. Greg got his eyes dilated, they look so weird! He’s got a freckle on each of his irises and one on the back of his cornea as well. They looked at them at Bethesda last year before he retired, gave him all the info on a thumb-drive. He took that with him today, the doc saw it right away and wanted to dilate his eyes. Anyhow, he’s still 20/20, must be nice! I really think that my eyes aren’t too bad. I’ve been at the same Rx for 10 years now. -7.50 in one eye and -7.00 in the other. Yes, I’m really blind I tell you. I’m -8.00 in one now and -7.00 in the other I think. Jac and I both have trial contacts on order…we put them in when he calls us in a few weeks and then wear them for a while, he checks them out and then we get our Rx’s. I use Contact Lens King for all our contacts. They always have my Rx in stock, which is great!

I’ve been busy on Twitter and Twitter Mom’s lately. I created a Tattooed Mom’s group on Twitter Mom’s the other day and it has 60 members in it right now! I would like to have more people participating though! If you are interested in tattoos at all, feel free to join us in discussions! There’s a few people that have no tattoos yet, but are interested in getting one in the future.

Greg and I are heading to Maryland Int’l Raceway tomorrow with some friends. Hopefully we’ll be there all day and into the night watching the bikes! I’m taking my Nikon and hopefully we’re parking in the pits so I can put stuff there when I don’t want to carry it around. It’s supposed to be nice weather tomorrow, in the low 70’s. Yay for Fall!

Sunday I’m delivering the DVD photos to the wedding couple from last month. Jac and Storm are taking Violet to the Ren Faire! Jac has been every year for 3 years now. This is the second year for Violet. Greg and I aren’t going this year, it’s impossible. Oh well.

I had some issues with my Pinkberry this past week. I’m currently putting everything back on it. It makes me sad as I had cool things on it and had it set up just right. Then, I had to wipe everything and I was still having issues. Since I’m within the 30 days, I just exchanged it for a brand new one! I hope to have ring tones back on it this weekend.

Time to get laundry done and I have to run the Scooba as well. :kiss:

    Oh my gosh, weighing in with PMS is torture! You’ll always have at least five pounds of water gain (I do at least) so that time doesn’t count to me. I guarantee you lose a ton after your period.

    I’m doing WW and last week was my best (3 pounds down). But my “special” time is coming soon, lol. So I’ll just ignore the numbers when they come in.

    I just got back from Baltimore, it was beautiful! Don’t stress about the gain, that is going to happen every month. It can fluctuate about a pound for me. You have been busy.

    I thought you were having issues with your pink berry frozen yougurt…then I figured out you meant your pink black berry! Technology can be so annoying! Can’t live without it!
