Friday and a NSV!!

NSV…sure.  Get to that in a minute. I had a RSV (Real Scale Victory) this week, too!  Down 2.8 pounds, putting me at 162.0, the lowest I’ve been in eons!  As Elvis would say,

Thank you.  Thank you very much.

The NSV?  Today on my lunch hour I grabbed one of the company bikes and rode fifteen miles. FIFTEEN, I tell you!  How did I do it? Lets start with a very frustrating morning dealing with

work
DirtBike
disappointment

not necessarily in that order.  Then  take into consdieration that it’s B-E-A-YOOOOOOO-tiful outside and sunshine makes me happy.  Mix those two together, toss in my need to rail against something and a totally awesome bike and Voila!  I totally beat up those bike pedals!  Rode from my office all the way to highway 183 and back to the office.

This is where I rode today!  Interesting transition from the
pavement in “downtown” to the suburb pavement.
The trees on the other side of the Trinity look like they’re getting a drink.

Smiling and feeling much, much better!

I think I need to learn how to hold the phone and take pictures of myself while riding, like Bitchcakes does. I’m not that coordinated, though, and would probably crash the bike. Which wouldn’t be good, because it’s a company bike, not actually my own.

Progress Photos!!

Hey!  Since I’m the one usually holding the camera, I don’t get many snapshots of me.  A few weeks ago, Princess Pea and I were waiting for Mr. Pea and the rest of the crew to come pick us up to go to Cousin Pea’s graduation.  I know that Princess Pea can work camera magic, so I took advantage of the free time!

…side…

…and just for fun!

That pretty green lawn?  Not ours.  We were waiting at Grandma Jane’s house, and she has the magic touch when it comes to landscaping!

Summer Challenge and a HALLELUIAH!!



Halleluiah!  Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir

What’s the halleluiah for?  Blogger is working again!!  I’ve been blog-less for twelve days – TWELVE DAYS!  I swear, my head was about to explode! I’ve been online on the Blogger forums – apparently that little snafu a few weeks ago was a humongous mess up for bloggers around the world. Blogger kept saying “It’s all fixed now” and “We’re up and running”, but there were many hundreds of thousands of bloggers left out in the rain.  Including me.
No posting, no editing, no manipulating my background images.  Worse still?  No feeds to my favorite blogs!!  I’m so out of touch now.  If something really, Really Important happened that I should know about, somebody please tell me, okay?
So. Enough whining!  Weight loss?  Trudging right along, thank you very much.  I’m fighting for every ounce, but guess what?  I’ve learned the WHY behind why the last few pounds are so ridiculously difficult to shed.  Stay tuned for a PSA…
I’m up to a little challenge this summer.  Debbi over at Debbi Does Dieting is hosting a Slimmer this Summer challenge.  Some other bloggy support groupies are joining up, so I did, too.  (Ooh! Ooh!  I’m one of the cool kids!)   Take a look.  Sign up. Keep going.
I’m glad to be back.
