BAD DAY AT WEIGHT WATCHERS.

I gained .8 0f a lb.  I guess, however, that I am not too disappointed because I thought I had gained more than that.  Funny how when you are watching your weight that you can tell the smallest change and realize if you have lost or gained.  It is going to be a long journey so stick with me.  We only have about 99lbs to go.  And you can plan on it that I am going to report to you each time I get weighed in.  And thanks for being such good listeners. 

By the way, I did not make it back in the pool.  There was more wind n pollen which I can't take a chance on.  Also in Florida when the clouds are gathering, I do not go in the water.  After all, this is the lightning capitol of the world.  Right here at Tampa in fact.  Lightning can travel horizontally for about 10 miles and strike where there is no storm.  We are to have thunderstorms later today.  We had a pour down of rain Wednesday. It rained 3 inches in a half hour.  There were little streams running down all the streets here in the park Five miles down the road I was told they got no rain at all.  When that much rain comes down for an hour as it sometimes does, we have the bowl effect.  That is when the sand is saturated with rain and it just runs off the surface and floods everything.  The ditches will all be overflowing when that happens. 

It is still hot here in the upper 80's now.  My friend from New York will be leaving the last of this month.  I will miss her.  She has not decided as yet that she will come back next year.  She had a birthday this month also. 

People are really getting into the session that takes them down memory lane.  One of our ladies brought pictures yesterday.  She had a big picture of her family when they were all younger.  She was the oldest daughter and was taken out of school to help take care of her younger siblings.  That was a very common thing during early years.  They are all speaking up and participating and that I am pleased about. 

I've been busy scanning my older pictures that were not taken by my camera or phone.  Also, I  am scanning some of my journals I had written before I started this blog.  I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing it.  More later.
