Another 3.3 miles with doggies along for 2.6. It was a beautiful day, clear blue sky and temps in the low 60's when we went.

Another aspect of a great day is that a contractor showed up when they said they would!!!!

This afternoon, I faced the demon and WON! A couple at the thrift shop where I volunteer, were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary today and so they brought in a HUGE, BAKERY CAKE with all that wonderful full buttercream frosting. I'm assuming the part about the frosting, as I had not one single bit of it. I LOVE bakery cakes when they're done right with that frosting, but I know it's not worth the aftermath. This would have been an unplanned splurge and I don't want any unplanned splurges, as that lets others decide when I'm off and on plan, instead of me. (I may revisit that idea after I get to goal, but for now, I'm supposed to be in charge!) A couple of people urged me to "get some cake and punch," but I held firm. I wished the couple my congratulations and talked for a bit, but then got busy to work in another area so I wouldn't have to be near the cake or be thinking about it.

It really is great to celebrate something as monumental as a golden wedding anniversay. It's rare to begin with and getting rarer with each passing year, I'm afraid. My own parents achieved their golden anniversary but, sadly, neither was in a position, health-wise, to really even be aware of its significance. So, I'm especially glad to see couples who can stay together for 50 years and celebrate it with full awareness. I believe Nelson's parents (Gizmonel) recently celebrated this event as well.

Your dedication inspires me. "Nothing tastes as good as slim feels." Like peanut butter, cake, at the time of your choosing is also in your future. I am looking forward to being slim for my "golden" in seven years. That is the best gift I could give to myself and my husband. I like to believe "the best is yet to come."

Sweetie girl and Paula, thanks for your comments. SG, that's fantastic that you are so close to celebrating a golden anniversary! The best truly IS yet to come! Paula, that cake looked so-o-o-o good and it seemed like everyone got their piece and then walked by, right in front of me, ooohing and ahhhing about how good it was. I had to turn away more than once because my immediate impulse was to go get some! I think this is one of the first times I've run into such a strong temptation at a totally unexpected time. Hope both of you are having a great Thursday.

Hi Laurie, thanks for stopping by. I'll have to hop on over to your journal to see what you've been up to these last couple of days....I thought maybe your Chiropractor took you hostage or something.
