weighing in, progress

Well, pretty big day for me today, got my first closing! I am pretty excited to be "breaking the seal" so to speak, on incoming revenue, since I have long ago broken the seal on outgoing cash! I ran some ads over the weekend to get some attention on this place so, hopefully I'll see a bit 'o traffic from that. I have a customer coming in to go over a proposal tomorrow, and another home about to go under contract so, things are beginning to sorta move along. Now, I need to keep the momentum going!

Weigh in time... week 1: 255; week 2: 249; week 3: 248.5; today 246.5. So, I am shrinking, not as fast as I'd like but hey, what has ever happened fast enough for me? I did swim a bunch on Saturday and Sunday, and took a fairly long (for me) bike ride that had much more steady pedalling than coasting, he he. At least I am headed in the right direction.

Well, I prayed for some help with my motivation to get a bunch of work done this weekend. Well shoot... he he I did get the yard back under control, got some gardening done (ate a ton of fresh veggies this weekend! thanks HP) But, I neglected to do anything with that nightmare of an office of mine, which of course prohibited me from doing any work I brought home from the real office. (you know, I couldn't possibly use the kitchen table or anything, office work can ONLY be done in the office!!) But, I did take Ian to the pool Sat and Sun, went for bike rides with him Sat and Sun, hung out with him all day Sunday while mommy didi her meeting, morning walk, errands, etc. So, it wasn't a total failure or anything. But, I sure could've got some work done on the office. Ah well... I will get to it he he

Prayer for the day:

God/HP, thanks for Your Gift of another Sober awakening. I am grateful too for my health, for Your Grace in letting me use this body today. I pray I may use it to do Your Works, to be of service to you and those about me. God, help me to take the time to understand, rather than be frustrated. Please help me to take the time to love, rather than to expect love. And God, help me not to hurt anyone today, including myself. Thank you for constantly reminding me of how much I dislike the cold weather of Jan/Feb so that I might not be so irritated by the heat and humidity our corn and beans need to grow so well...

Peace to you all...
