Phone call this A.M.

brrrringg!

"Hello?"

"Hello, Dawn?"

"yeees...?"

"Hi! This is Al Green from over at Chemlawn. I was just calling because I wanted to make sure we got out there to fertilize your lawn this year."

"You do???" (said with excited surprise; also, see "smarm")

taken-aback laughter "Of course I do!"

"Well Al, that's mighty swell of you!"

"OK now then, we nee..."

I cut him off with, "BUT, ya see? This isn't exactly my home, so the lawn isn't really mine to fertilize. Is there anything else you'd like to fertilize instead?"

:::laughter:::

"No, no Dawn.*laughs* Thank you though, and have a good morning."

"You too, Al!"

*click!*

Hoorah!

I lost another six pounds! YAY!

:::happy booty-dancing conga-line begins for the weekend:::

That's 11 lbs so far, which I think is fantabulous! I know a good portion of it is water weight, but hey, I can bask in this a li'l, can't I?

In other news, I have my first appointment with Bally's total fitness today. The Discovery people still haven't sent me my "Body Kit," but they gave me a link to get a two-week free membership until it comes. So I am taking advantage of that today. Of course, Ms. sharpshinyclaws is s'posed to go with me, seeing as she got into this with me in the first place ~8) I am happy to have a friend who wants to do this with me. She's not here yet, however, and was supposed to be here by 10:30. I think she gets another ten minutes and then I am outta here.

I am bouncy-excited about this. All of it. I have spent so much time working on my mental health, my educational health ... it is time to make the body catch-up. Slowly and surely, it will. It will.

Have a good day everyone!
