Day 89

Saturday I took a long country cruise trying to get my head back in the game. In the process I took some pics of the "wild' asparagus picking process. Wild asparagus, I read is really NOT wild, but just is there growing after farmers planted them in the irrigation ditches to hold the walls because of it's roots going deep and thick.  It was slim pickings. My not to plunder philosophy is if I see two I take one if I see five I take two. I did a six mile stretch and maybe I should of walked more of it.

Sunday I did the mall,but started way in the parking lot 2 buildings away and used my grandbabies as my motivation. We zoomed around and then ended at Barnes And Noble and went back.  Did a snack and drink stop in the middle and a play area stop playing with stranger's kids, but they all just like get along and start playing...kids are cool that way.

In Amazonia, where my daughter was at, they were doing a 3 day Tamale Rollathon. Do you think I wanted to be there? Although they have a crew of family, there my daughter is the only one they trust to help them supposedly. I call it co-dependence.But maybe I am just being the proverbial bitch on a diet. Can't be hating on the tamale eaters.

I ate one and changed my Sunday dinner to chicken nuggets. 64 carb total for the day and 1400 calories...My water was on.

In my carby stupor...I had a vision...Diet Fairy came in sight! It was a white rabbit running with fairy wings and it spoke to me:

Hey you, Scooter Butt! I see you are stressed about the scale...here take this! One time and one time only!

Wow gee thanks Diet Fairy. He said he was late for a party in Onderland and ran off ! Gotta listen to the wabbit...no scale today. Will slide out of this one and hope next week is better. It will keep me sane. (at least my reasonable facsimile of sane). Redeeming the card for this week.

Raquel looks great either way...me thinks. But the paparazzi would tear that one up...How many of those magazines I passed by in life while in the shopping line?
