My argiope spider is still in her place, with an even bigger & better spider web structure. I'm leaving her alone as she's a "good" spider and is hopefully eating ALL the bugs in the backyard.

I had my second week at WW. And, I get to vent a little bit because being a woman, we all have these weight fluctuations due that time of the month. Not that I like to advertise that I've turned into a raging, emotional, temperamental female, but it just SUCKS BIG TIME that I also had a 3 lb water weight that just showed up on Wednesday and finally left today. I drink and drink and drink and drink water till my eyeballs slosh, but I barely need to make any bathroom trips. UGH. So, that translated in only a .4lb weight loss. BUT - I have high hopes & expectations that next week will show the fruits of my efforts.

Upcoming travel plans: Seattle! YAY! I am going with my Ireland travel buddies to the western side of the USA that I've never been to. I'm looking forward to it. It's only an extended weekend, 5-day trip, but it will be fun in October. Other travel plans include going to Houston to see "Lucy" the 3.5million year old human remains found in Ethiopia, as well as touring Broadway shows Spamalot & Sweeney Todd. Now that Brenda lives in Colorado, I'm thinking that a trip to Grand Junction might be in the works, but probably not until spring 2008.
