some number of things make a post
For weeks, there’s been a lovely green and yellow spider living above the rose bush just to the right of my front door. She’s about the size of a small person’s thumb. I was so hoping she’d stay until Halloween, so I could decorate her web with some food-safe silver spray to make her really stand out, but alas she appears to have moved on to buggier pastures.
I am very happy to be back on the low-carb phase of my crazystupiddiet. You know you’ve been dieting too long when the idea of getting to have green beans with dinner is exciting. While I didn’t make my final weight goal on this round as I’d hoped, I’m set to get there with (hopefully!) one final round in January. I’ve lost 25.3% of my starting weight since October 17th of last year. I’m hoping to be able to maintain my current weight through the Christmas cookie season.
In weight related news, I need to find a jeweler who works in platinum so I can get my wedding ring resized. There are some good reviews on Yelp for DD Jewelry in San Mateo, have any of you used them?
The move to my new office in Sunnyvale went much more smoothly than I expected, which was very nice. There are some things I miss about my old office, but my commute is actually shorter, and may get easier if the construction on Hwy 101 is ever completed. I live in hope.
Wednesday Night dance practice is moving to San Jose for the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays. If you are interested in medieval and renaissance music and dance in the SF Bay area, please join the very low-volume email list on westdance.org.
Yahoo mail is misbehaving, so I can only hope my mother in law and brother in law are safe from Hurricane Sandy’s waters. MIL doesn’t email often, but no mail from BIL probably means he’s without power. I might try to calling tonight, if I get home at a decent hour.
