    This is too remind me to have fun with life, not be so serious I lose my sense of humor.

    Yesterday for first time in a week and a half i had one of my couldnt stop eating nights, I was mad yesterday all day because weight was up from eating more at dinner two nights in a row.

    Realized I needed to take a step back and take a deep breath and move forward not get all mad and frustrated like I did before.

    I didn't tell you guys yesterday because I was feeling emotional but we gave one of our cats away yesterday. To a good home with a single nurse so I feel good about that. He had been bugging my hubby for years, litterally too loving, would not stay off hubby no matter how many times he would say no or put him down he would jump up on him.

    Mike felt smothered by him, he never had a minute alone except shutting the door at night, and over the last few years it got worse and every night was Mike yelling at him to get down. Get away, etc. i felt bad for both Andi and Mike. For the past year I have been telling Mike we should find him a better home where someone needs that much attention.

    So we finally did it, maybe why I have been eating more last few days. Last night was quiet and peaceful for first time in many years. Didn't realize how one sweet animal can cause so much drama in a house.

    Our other cat Annie is independent and ignores us most of the time.

    I am not sure what to say to family and friends who loved Andi. How can I say he drove my hubby batty? I am just glad we found great place. Mike visited her house. Andi is expensive ragdoll so easier to find home than for a stray.

    Marla - That is definitely hard but sounds like a very wise decision. People sometimes don't seem to understand that a pet can be a great animal and still not be the right fit for a family. It's not like you sent her to the pound, you found her a wonderful home. In the long run, everyone will be more happy.

    Congrats Laura on your triathlon! Are you planning to do another one sometime?

    I had a good day yesterday. Got some things accomplished but still hung out with my kids and friends. Did my long run last night/this morning when hubby got home from work and then slept in. Today I need to get some church stuff done, and have a baby shower to go to. I was also invited to the drive in. Not sure if I'm going yet...I may be peopled out at that point.

    Happy Saturday everyone!
