Have I mentioned that I attend WW too? Probably not yet. The past couple of weeks I have only maintained. That is the best I can hope for at this time of year. I try to attend meetings on Thursday's right after work or Saturday's early in morning. Two gals from work attend at the AM one. One jokes and calls it the "fat club".
Michael, a middle aged gay man, leads the Saturday AM meeting. He is so fun to have as a leader. He himself lost over 100 pounds. He calls us "sister friends". His real job is being an elementry school teacher and I bet he is the best. He loves everyone and it shows. He actually sang a song to on of the ladies when she met her weight goal and it was so touching many in the room were crying. He even had me getting glassy eyed.
WW is one of those things I am counting as "something I do for ME". I go there and then get a Starbucks tea. I am not a big coffee drinker which is one of the signs to others here that I am from CA. Most people are addicts to coffee here. My husband is one of them. Starbucks comes from Seattle so that tells you something. I go there and order green zen tea, hot or iced, depending on the weather.
I like going to SB to sit and read as a pause in a busy day. Stores are everywhere here even drive thru SB are coming up everywhere. One knows locations and whether or not it's a drive thru. Thoses are good when you have kids with you or the weathers really bad.
Well my hope is to also catch up on Christmas. We might go see a neighborhood with big lights tonight. You know what I mean. I have always wondered about those people in one of those neighborhoods that bought the house not knowing what took place at Christmas.
Have a great day!

Hi Danna! The photo of Brady and Riley is cute! I love both those names, too. Your WW leader sounds fun! I love gay men! As a teacher, I've worked with a lot and they are always so fun and good with the kids. Their bulletin boards are always perfect, too! :lol: Actually, I think Christmas letters are fine and a good idea as long as they don't go on and on about honor rolls and scholarships and all that jazz. Your poem letter sounds perfect and creative! (((Hugz)))
