In other exciting news ... I am now officially out of my apartment! While I'm happy because that's one less thing on this insane list of deadlines I have, I leave with a touch of sadness. That apartment was good to me and I'm sure I will miss it from time to time, like when I'm paying the bills for this place! haha
So for those of you who planned to send me lots of cards and mail ... you'll just need to hold off until my cute little address stamp shows up and I mail you my new one! :-)

And one last bit of good news: Mom's surgery went well yesterday! She was up walking around last night and went home this morning. She says her leg feels a bit better, but now she just has some surgery pain to get through. I guess having them use a roto-rooter on your spine isn't the most fun thing in the world, but it will take care of far worse pain so I imagine she'll tell me it was worth it.

Cayman Brac Dive day 1

We all made it safely to the island called Cayman Brac for the Dive Frendzee takeover! I have been delighted with everything since arriving! It is blissfully remote and I feel quite content to never leave the resort compound to venture anywhere else.  It is like we are at the end of the world in a wonderful day!  The food...oh my the food! (I have officially turned in my Mom)!  It is all buffet but GOOD buffet!  Rolls, soups, multiple salads, cheese board, multiple hot side dishes, and then two or three entries, one always carved with a sauce.  Last night was ham. Oh, and dessert! 3 different choices last night: coconut flan, carrot cake, and chocolate walnut pie. This place offers Valet style diving, so in the morning, we were to have our gear outside our door in bags they provide, and they pick everything Iup and take it over to the dive boats and they set everything up! Valet diving, Princess diving, whatever you want to call it.... I am loving it! After that, it was time for b

30 day sugar challenge

Image
Ok, my goal is to restrict myself to 6 tsp or 25 grams of sugar per day as recommended by health organizations who study these things.  I haven't tracked my eating for a while but a I am sure I am way over that! I watched a movie called Sugar Coated and it had inspired me, as well as all my friends giving up things for Lent.  Since I have a marathon on Sunday, I will not be able to be quite as strict on race day but will give this a whirl. I started by going through my cupboards and was stunned by all the things that contained sugar!! My vitamins, calcium, taco seasoning... it feels like I am down to salt, pepper, oil, and dish soap!! I need to research whether that 25 grams is added sugar, separate from the naturally occurring sugar in fruits, or it that is all forms of sugar. That would be much harder!!
