I have been walking the Ocean Springs/ Biloxi bridge daily for the past week. It is about 3 1/2 miles across and back. I am determined to get back to a decent loss on this diet. My goal time frame is almost up, and well, I am not going to make it, but I can strive to get closer the next 12 days.
I had to buy some new uniforms, and I am in between a medium and a small size. I haven't seen a small anything in several years. It still feels good to see the progress, but i know myself...it will never be quick enough!!!

I met Chianna from my favorite show Farscape! She was very nice. It was the first time I have ever met any one famous that I really really liked!!. That diet that I talked about in an earlier blog has been going well. I have so far lost 34 pounds, and am still going! Still knitting. Working on a baby blanket for the N.P. I work for. I will attempt to blog more. I get caught up in...well....LIFE!

Started a kick ass diet. Lost 5 lbs this week. Hubby is motivated to start his own diet, a different one than I am on. I have not been doing much with the lapghan, it is due for gift exchange on 12-16-07. must get to work on it. I took an hour long walk today. I live about 10 min. from Gulf Island seashore park, and it was a beautiful morning for a walk. I am going to start walking at least 2 times a week. When the local Gym opens I can do the tread mill during the week, and take my walk outside on the weekends. I took a "tour" of the new fitness center. It is very cool. Since my membership is paid for already I will go, and I am going to enroll Jake. He had said something about wanting to lift weights. He can't do that until he is 14. They have about 8 swimming pools. very nice.

I started a crochet wave afghan...why???I'm not sure..oh yeah, I remember. I have to make a present for a co-worker and I crochet faster than I knit,as I found out. I had to refresh my memory, it has been a while since I used a hook.I actually had to buy one to start the project. I will post a picture when it starts to look like something other then a corkscrew snake.  Gotta' work on that gauge!
It is time for bed..I kind of got wrapped up in the afghan, (wrapped up in the string I had to frog) then I couldn't leave it unwoven like that, so I had to crochet back to where I was in the skien...etc...etc...etc.

I just got my Ravelry invite...it is a cool site, I really like it. Lanie and I had fun with it last night at knitting. I am still trying to figure out how to link this blog to Ravelry...I never claimed to be a rocket scientist..just a sci-fi geek.
  I am back to trying to finish the MS3. I quit because it really pissed me off. I am after all allergic to frog legs and I had to frog almost every row for about a month. Pissed me off.

I haven't been able to knit for about a week. the weather changed and it makes my hands hurt. I am going to try and work on secret stole (in blue silkwool) I will post pictures of the work in progress soon.

    I have, however been able to read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows. I am on the last couple of chapters. I was listening to the book on tape, and switched to the old the old way of reading...I bought the book when I went to Texas a couple of weeks ago. It is easier to start and stop that way!

    I should get my son up, and get ready to head to work...

    Later.

Here I am, a actually blogger....who'd a thought?

now everyone will know I am a crazy, mind frelled geek (Yes, that was a farscape plug)

see, I am a geek, but in more ways than just a sci-fi geek.

this is fun..but, Hey..I have to go to work.

Later
