I've been angry with myself. Three years ago I worked hard and lost a lot of weight. I was very diligent to follow weight watchers for nine months, then I went on a trip and ever since then I have watched that weight come back, even though I have still attended the meeting!!!! Just before the new year I got on the scale and had regained all but 8lbs of the weight I lost. I guess that was finally enough and I have returned to weight watchers...not just the meetings but actually doing the program...eating appropriately and exercising. Can I say I love our Wii!! So since Dec. 29 I've been "on program". If nothing else I'm feeling better emotionally, knowing I'm eating healthfully and exercising.

I started reading "365 day with John Newton". I'm using in for my evening devotion. The first four days were taken from a passage in 1 Chronicles, not sure exactly where and I don't want to get up to find out :) They also went along with the song "Amazing Grace". Some thoughts were, Who am I, not as in "I'm searching for myself, who am I?" but "who am I, that God would look at me, just some dirt." The more I think about it the more I'm amazed. I know I will never be able to wrap my mind around those thoughts... How could God, creator and sustainer of all things, love me, choose me.... Amazing Grace it is tooo amazing!

I can't believe Hope only has three semesters left of my schooling her. She is so much fun. I'm so grateful to God for her. She isn't perfect, none of us are, but she is a joy and I'm so glad God gave her to me(us) 16 years ago. Last night was homecoming and she looked so beautiful. I'll post pictures once I get them uploaded from the computer.
Well, I think I'm out of thoughts.... I'm going to strive to blog more often this year... we will see :)
