sigh

I gave notice at work yesterday. I am SOOOOO looking forward to having time to my self. I'll be able to work on my 101 things. I hope to complete quite a few of them the first month or so. I'll be able to get my summer reading list finished also. I'll be off for 4-5 months. At least I hope I'll be off that long. I should be able to get a job as a paralegal.

I've lost almost 10 pounds since I joined Weight Watchers. I still don't feel like I'm dieting at all. I still get to eat burgers and fries at least once a week. (Of course I only eat a whopper jr and small fries) I'm not looking for a fast loss. Just a slow steady one. I use the flex plan and it works very well for me. I like several of the Lean Cuisine dinners. I'm also going to try and adapt some of my favorite recipes for WW.

The new computer came yesterday. I LOVE it! It has a 19 inch viewable monitor. It's huge compared to the 17 inch one I was using. The old Dell I was using will go into the living room/library to be used as a night light/photo viewer. I use family photos in Webshots as my screen saver. That way I can see my old photos more easily. I'm trying to scan and get them all on a computer.

I had hoped that my Dad would come down for Christmas, but he is having cataract surgery on both eyes before the first of the year. I'm going to miss being with him this year. My family doesn't get together very often. I miss the old times when we got together almost every year.
