Busy Week & Date Night

I haven't posted in a week but it's not because anything is wrong - I'm just busy! This semester has been a tough one, not because it's particularly difficult - it's actually a fascinating class (Human Sexuality) - but there is a lot of reading and writing.

Work is...work. Nothing new to say there. Busy and long commute.

Had a fab date night with my wonderful and adorable husband on Saturday night. We went to the beach to watch the super moonrise and had a great time just hanging out, talking, and being silly. We walked around for awhile and Scott said how nice it was that I was able to keep up and he didn't feel like he needed to slow his pace for me to keep up. He's nearly a foot taller than me and I've ALWAYS struggled to keep up with him and it's just not a problem anymore. The best was when we were halfway across the parking lot and I couldn't remember if I locked the car door, I said, "Be right back," and ran for the car, locked it, and ran back. Scott said he'd never seen me run like that and he was impressed. That was super nice to hear.

We went to go eat some dinner - an order of Dungeoness crabs steamed with Old Bay to share, some raw oysters for Scott, and some fried clams to share...oh and a "cookie cake" for dessert. This was a total splurge, we almost never order dessert anymore, but we enjoyed our meal, really enjoyed dessert, and I'll leave it at that. ;-)



I gained 0.4 pound in this week's challenge. Not a surprise after last week's huge loss following the travel bloat the week before and then a cookie cake and fried clams. No biggie. Just need to stay focused this week and do what I have to do.

I'm thinking about doing Atkins short term with Amy W. Mmmm...bacon.
