A fan of lists

Sooooo...

*My brother has been married for the past 6 days. Well, 5? He got married May 1st at high noon. It was the first sealing I was able to go to since I had received my own endowments almost a year and a half ago.
*I also got to go to my brother and now sister in law's endowment session on my birthday and then to dinner afterward with my whole family minus a sister in law, 2 nieces and of course my mom. It was a good day overall.


*My knee is slowly healing. Because of my diabetes any sort of cut or scrape is going to heal pretty slow. It is, however, healing. Most of the scabs have fallen off. The only problem spot has been the one that has had pus since the beginning. Not so much anymore, but the pus is still there. I'll spare you the gory details and not post a picture here.

*I really like, ridiculously love this video of Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours". Watch it. Love it.


*I haven't had much of life. I've gone on drives with my friend Devonne. We found a cool little spot next to Utah Lake with a picnic bench. We go there a lot. Today we went up American Fork Canyon with the hopes of going around Alpine Loop, but to no avail. Apparently its still closed due to snow...or something.


*I'm really liking The Rescues right now. You should look them up.

Hooray!

I've lost 9.2 pounds in the last 6 days. I'm excited! The picture really doesn't have anything to do with weight loss per se, but it does have the word reduce on it and I took the picture, so I'm putting it up. :-]

Sleepiness becomes me

*sigh* I miss the ocean. Not really the Atlantic Ocean, although I have to say that the East Coast has some beautiful beaches. But the Pacific Ocean will always be home to me. I miss it. I miss the hot sand, the coconut scented sunscreen and tanning oil, the salty sea air, the random volleyball games, the hot surfer boys. I miss it all. Its my favorite place where you can watch the sunset while looking out over the water. Its amazing! Sure, it gets hot, but really? When you're there at the beach looking at the water, taking it all in, it doesn't really matter how hot it is. I've always loved the water. It has a calming effect over me like lavender oil in a steamy bath. I wish I could just be a beach bum for the rest of my life. I'd take photos and sell them to support my needs. Kind of like what Thoreau did at Walden Pond. I really only need the simple things in life and the beach and ocean. I could get along without my phone and definitely without my alarm clock. Just

Slowly but surely

The weight loss has slowed just a little. I've only lost roughly 3 pounds this week. But I am determined to lose at least 80 pounds by my birthday. It's a tall order that's for sure. I have about 34 days to do it. I have to lose 2.4 pounds a day to surpass my goal by a little over than a pound. I suppose I'll have to be more diligent on my diet and exercising. I won't be disappointed if I come close though. The whole point of me going on any sort of exercise/diet plan is to get healthy and to get ready for Hawaii. I refuse to fly on a plane at my current weight. Mostly because I don't want to be embarrassed if I have to get a seat belt extender. I don't want to. I refuse to be one of those people that have to get special accommodations because of my weight just to fly. I think that I've come a long way from how I ate and exercised before. I pretty much look forward to my walks every day and I don't crave soda anymore. I actually had about 4 ounces of
