Well, my day started off wonderfully this morning. I got on the scale for the first time in about a week...and low and behold, I have finally hit 100 pounds lost! I almost couldn't believe my eyes. I have been stuck in a holding pattern for the last 2-3 months -- teetering between 95 pounds lost and 97 pounds lost. What a wonderful, exhiliarating feeling it was to see that scale this morning!
So, that's how my day started. As I sat down to enjoy my morning cup of coffee a few minutes later, my day took a turn for the worst. I hadn't even taken my first sip of my morning "wake up call" when my cell phone rang and I received a phone call from my boss, the superintendent of the school district I work for. He asked if I could come in immediately -- one of our school buses was involved in an accident and the passenger in the car that was also involved was killed. Being the communications person for the district, I needed to get in immediately to deal with the media influx.
Needless to say, dinner tonight was my first meal of the day -- it was a very long and hard day. So, as I write this note tonight, I am thinking of the wonderful start to my day...and I will take this exhiliarating feeling with me to bed. It will be a short-lived feeling as I need to be out of the house at the crack of dawn to head to our school building to help with media control again (hopefully there won't be any, but you never know).
So, until next time, peace out and wishes for a wonderful day to you all!
