Day 20
New pic - my sister took this picture Labor Day weekend.

I weighed 157.4 at 9 am Sunday morning! Yay! Still trending downward.

Today I went kayaking with my friend and her husband. Can't say it was aerobic because my friend seemed to be doing all the work! We did paddle around for 2 hours though so that was fun.

What is it with guys? I have one who wants to meet me from online, but doesn't say when. Am I supposed to suggest a time or place or something? Not sure how that is supposed to go. Anyway, the prospect certainly keeps me working on losing weight!

As for the dress for my party - I have to decide soon because I have to fix the skirt if I am going to wear it. I haven't tried it on in ages.

I did hire a guy to fix some things around my house - now to see if he shows up! I have been having terrible luck with handymen, though - about half of them just never get back to me.

Lots of activities going on this week - I'll be busy again. Plus my friend is working from home and is desperate for company so we will probably walk a few times this week together - she is also curious about the tax prep course I am taking, which would bore many people but not her, which is why she is my friend I think - she is interested in things I say!

I cooked my own dinner last night after weeks of eating take-out. Unfortunately it was a prepackaged meal and the sodium was 86% of my daily allowance!!!!!! I am going to be thirsty tonight for sure.

Grateful for: friendliness of people I meet.
Good neighbors
My coworker on nights with me which makes the night less lonely
Prepackaged meals even if they are high in sodium!
Coffee as usual, and the Sparta Diner in my town.

Hope you all have a great Monday!

Yea I have to agree some of the guys seem to want you to suggest a meeting. I haven't done it yet because I never seem to care enough about any of them to really care if I meet them or not. lol Great list Abba. I am still up at 2am now and wish I could get to sleep. I hate to start out the week like this.

I, too, like my prepackaged meals, but the sodium is really high. Will probably cut down on them eventually...

You look great! Love the new photo. I wonder what that is about the guys. Maybe he doesn't want to suggest something too forward or not forward enough, so he's waiting for you to set the pace? I don't know. I hope you find someone you like--even just for a few dates to help you get some confidence in the whole dating game. My friend is on Match and she's had a lot of busts but sometimes she says it's nice just to talk to someone new and have a nice meal.
