ION, I survived the solo and even got compliments on it. Strangely enough, the stage fright that had my knees and my voice wobbling during rehearsal utterly disappeared during the services. Performance adrenaline rushes are beautiful things. Still, that's the last time I'm volunteering for a solo, though I might try one again if the director asks me rather than the other way around.

Yay Susan!

Yay Susan, both for the solo and the sensible dieting.

Today is not a banner diet day, but I am having veggie soup now and it is yum.

go, Susan. I'm glad to here the performance was so much better than the rehearsal.

and I really think that small changes that fit with how you live, in the long run, will make more sense. and be easier to become part of your normal life.

I had a candy bar, and I'm fixing to have a margarita, but I just got back from a very long walk buying gifts for my slacker secret santa.

We just took advantage of what may be the last sunny weekend afternoon until, oh, July or so and took Annabel to the park. Lots of other families had the same idea, and Annabel alternated between extreme shyness (when a group of little girls tried to get her to make mud pies, only more like wood chip cakes, with them) and sociability (when she and another little girl were on the swings talking about their daddies and how high they were pushing them).

A good day, all told.

Nice day, Susan. Bet both little girls have their dads wrapped around their itty bitty fingers.

So, Day 1 of Atkins is commencing with breakfast of scrambled eggs and smoked salmon.

Mmmm, tasty!

Awesome, Susan! So glad you enjoyed the performance!

Way to go Susan!
