Well, it is Memorial Day Weekend, and cloudy and misty. Rained during the night, so pretty wet out there. Should have mowed yesterday while it was dry, I just mowed on Monday! Pretty and green and the rododendrons are great, mostly in the places I drive by, although I have one big bush with red blossoms in the yard. Heather and Cara left for Wenatchee for their yearly trip to sunshine and swimming pool, Have to keep an eye on Jenna, she gets fed 2x day now. Getting thinner but seems perky enough. The cancer will get her sooner or later, at least she seems not in pain, and eager for her homeade dog food! I was going to bring her over here for the weekend, but she is so comfy at Heather's with her dog pillow and couches to lay on, just have to go over there and make sure she has enough bathroom breaks.
Last week I started on the HCG diet drops, so I am hoping that they take my weight down 30-40 pounds as advertised. Following the program, doing better than I thought on 500 calories a day. Without dairy or wheat I am not stuffed up so much anymore, which is interesting. I sure look forward to my meat, veggie and fruit meals twice a day! Have not even had the Melba toast or Wasa bread yet, because can't find it in the store. Next Wed have a colonoscopy, so for a few days, no raw food and lots of liquid............first time for me. maybe the last? We will see.
Actually, it is about time to eat, and looks like the sun might come out! So hoping that I can get some compost added to my mini garden spot, finish the fence around it and plant the squash, cukes, pumpkins that are started under a window and ready to move to the garden.
On a side note, Thursday night the bridge on I-5 over the Skagit River between Mt. Vernon and Burlingon collapsed into the river. No deaths, three were rescue from vehicles, quite a miracle. Now the roads going into Mt v. will be a challenge. Don't have to go until next week, so will see how it is. Thanks to all those who serve and have served in the Military.
