I got up watered the lawn in in my pajamas ( I feel sorry for my neighbors) and got ready to go weigh in. I hate to say this but my weigh ins sometimes determine how the rest of my day is gonna go (this is something I'm not proud of but I human, a disappointment is a disappointment right!). A Sunday with a gain is spent at home on the couch grubbing and sulking and a Sunday with a loss is a Sunday spent shopping, hanging out with family, and just an all around a great day. Today, Sunday May 22nd was just that kind of a day, it was a Sunday Fun Day.
After my fabulous weigh in (another 2.4 pounds have left my body, saying it this way reminds me of those commercials where the kids are on the beach and they see this random body part and it's someones double chin...lol) we went to lunch at Kelly's pub (love their food) where I grubbed, throwing caution to the wind. Usually after a weigh in I forget about dieting and I just have a day, a day where I don't count points and day where I don't think twice about ordering what I want, a day when I just don't care. Then we went to a consignment shop around the corner and low and behold it is no longer a consignment shop, it is now the cutest little flower shop and there Riley bought me the most beautiful rose...so sweet of him!
Then we went to Walmart to do a little shopping and that's where "the incident" happened. Maria was tired of riding in the basket and she kept saying "will you hold me mama, will you hold me?" So I took her out of the basket, held her for a while and then told her she could walk beside me, if she stayed close, so she did as she was told, for like 5 minutes! So then she ran, she ran fast, just blindly running just to be free, to stretch her legs and as I was just about to grab her she felt right into the magazine racks, head first. OMG it was so awful, she screamed like I had never heard her scream and she cried, that terrible open mouthed cry but no sound. Thank God it wasn't as bad as it looked (people actually gasped when they saw her fall). I had a talk with her about running away and how it could be a lot worse for her, say if she runs into traffic, I fear I'm gonna have to be a leash mama, I never wanted to be but if it keeps her safe... ugh I don't know. So she's fin but has a nasty bump and a bruise, my poor little one. I felt so awful (this by no was a "fun: thing, this was the absolute downer for the day)! She's okay.
So then we stopped at my folks house and that's when I had a moment to check what the Amazon App store was offering for free today and to my great surprise it was the Retro Camera+. It is awesome and here are some of the pictures I took with it, enjoy the show!
