I'm glad to say that I survived last week. By Friday I was so overwhelmed that I was ready to cry. Of course I did, but that was Thursday night!

Friday night after sending out the most evil proposal that has ever crossed my desk, I went home, had some potstickers and made myself a dirty martini and two cookies fresh from the oven. That's exactly what flexpoints are there for - evil proposals. I can't handle my alcohol anymore (like I ever could before), so I was in bed before 9:30. I seem to recall Janet calling, but I'm not sure if that was a dream or not.

Saturday I was up ridiculously early - even earlier than the early hour of 7am that I had to be up at in order to meet up with Kristen for our mall walk. I was even there before the mall opened. We walked around for over an hour then shopped. Target, TJMaxx and Trader Joes. Jimbo I went to see a movie later that afternoon. We wanted to see the Gay Cowboy movie, but alas everyone else wanted to see it to so we went to see Munich, instead. A good movie. The lead actor was hoooooooooooooooooot. After that we went to Chilis where I had a guiltless chicken sandwich and a 5-point margarita which also succeeded in sending me to bed right after nine.

Sunday, up early again, obsessing over points and recipes then off to the gym with Jimbo. Home and then off again to Janey's Mom's memorial service. It was a touching service and it was nice to hear everyone say such nice things about Betty. We helped Janey clean up then dragged her kicking and screaming (no, not really) to the Emerald Rose for nummies and drinkies. Not having learned my lesson the previous two nights, I had a glass of wine and was in bed before 9:00.

Today we stayed local. I worked on web stuff and planning my food for the week, did a little design stuff and then headed out grocery shopping with Jimbo. I felt much better about points and such after I talked to my mom (who also does Weight Watchers), Krista, did more research on the web and wen grocery shopping. I am now armed with 1pt english muffins, cereal, fudesicles and 2pt snacks galore. I think I might be getting the hang of this. Well thanks to this little thing on the WW web site called "Cook Once, Eat All Week." I spend three hours tonight cooking dinners for every night this week. Tonight was 5pt stir-fry! Even Jimbo loved it. I've never seen him eat so many vegetables.

I was very good today. I even have 4.5 points left so I'm going to treat myself :) I heart chocolate dot com
