Six months out (since June). 71 pounds. No craving for chocolate. Just for sugar cookie dough. I would like to lose 25 more pounds. More, if possible, but I will be happy with just 25 more. Received my new 6 months worth of medication last Monday. It was wrapped in a muslin bag with hand stitching and wax (like on letters in the olden days) at strategic points. Cool.
Forgot to mention that David, Kevin, Raechel and I did an 8K (5 miles) race??????? called the Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning. Actually, Raechel ran and then came back to join us for the end of the walk, bringing bottles of much-needed water. Kevin, David, and I received a standing ovation when we crossed the Finish Line. The people were already standing, but they did applaud for those of us who finished last. The point, again, isn't that we finished last, but that I FINISHED!!!!!!!!!! We didn't get a free pair of shoes, but we did get T-shirts. Had a good time. And all of us know that I probably would not have finished 5 miles this time last year!
My second semester of college teaching has ended, and I am busy getting ready to teach Abnormal Psychology as well as one General Psychology course next semester.
Amelia told me that she has cancer markers in her blood again so please be thinking of her and praying for her. She is an amazing woman and is trying spiritual healing now.
Take care. Merry Christmas. Please have a safe, healthy New Year.
Love,
Mom/Peggy/Granny
