Birthday outing with grandchildren and Daughter

Hi everyone, 

I ended my week happily with lunch with Maggie, Jane, and Beth at the Library and then shopping at North Park.   I rarely go there because I don't drive across the bridge...so that was a treat for me. 

Trying on clothes was a little depressing.   Sometimes I feel like I am on the black line at the pool where we step from one side of the line to the other.  That is the way I feel about my weight.  One side of me says...you really need to get this under control and the other side says....you are 72 and do I really care???? Oh well today is another day and I feel pretty much in control.   I have not eaten one dark choc.  yet.  However, it is only 10:30 a.m.  

Margie came over and we all watched "Juno" together.   It was the second time for most of us, but I enjoyed it just as much as the first time.   I think what I liked about it, was how the people were so real and the houses and neighborhoods were like real people.  The Dad was really good in the show...just a real guy but he wanted what was best for his "Junebug".  I liked the step-mother also as she was also committed to Juno and her cause.  I am not a fan of Jennifer Garner....I don't  really know why.

I cooked a roast for dinner last night and invited Gary's mother over.  She rarely eats a really good meal for herself.   I try to have her over when I cook, but isn't too often.  She likes seeing the flowers and trees in bloom.   Without saying she doesn't get to look out the window when she drives at age 95!  Gary picks her up and takes her home.  

The Pest man was here today and I hope that is the last I see of the ants!   He said to call him if they come back.   I am appalled that I had to pay a $4.00 fuel surcharge.  

We are looking forward to  seeing Max in the talent show tonight at Logan.   More later
