Busy....just plain busy

And it's hot....just plain hot!!!!! But my newest knitted scarf is ready and waiting.

I read several weeks ago that if you drop (one drops) 100 calories a day, you lose (one loses) a pound in a month's time. Okay....let's see (figured I). That means if I give up my glass of wine each evening, that must surely be at least, or more than, 100 calories. So I gave up my wine....cold turkey. Hey, that sounds good, a cold turkey on such a hot day. But, back to my weight loss, or not.

Just yesterday, my month and one day had passed, as I ate my pimento cheese sandwich and chips, I told my lunch friends what I was doing....yet, I could not see a loss. They were quick to tell me that even though I gave up my wine, I couldn't pick up the calories in other areas (tsk...they whispered, as in pimento cheese or chips). I ignored their snide remarks and continued enjoying my lunch.

But, lol, this morning, I stripped down to naked and onto the scales I landed. Am I seeing this correctly. Yes, I am - exactly one pound less than yesterday. It works....it works....it works! I hope those blasted scales aren't lying.
