Happy St. Patrick’s Day
Today was a good day. Odd though. I didn’t wear any green, at least not for the first half. The last half only sort of thanks to a multi- colored shirt. Oh well. Happy St. Patrick’s day anyway.
I did well this week and finally made it to my next 5 lbs. Woo hoo! I am very happy. I hope my next 5 comes soon. One year, one month and two days since I started. I am much healthier than I had been. I am more concious of my choices. Sometimes they are tough and some times I go over board. I always come back to it because I know it works. So yay me. It feels good to be here. Maybe I can lose a few more before that wedding. Wouldn’t that be great. A nice birthday present to me. 
Yay Me!
I have always liked March. I am not totally sure why. Maybe it is my Bday. Maybe cuz the weather is fun- not really spring yet, but not really winter. Maybe because cool things happen to me in March. Maybe because I like St Patrick’s day. You wear green and pinch people who aren’t. (At least you did that in school.) People are happy. Yet there isn’t the guilt of gift giving. I don’t drink often- green beer seems kind of odd. The green bread I saw tonight seemed worse. Ick. Well for whatever reason… March has been good to me.
Update on Dodger. He’s doing well- now if he’d just take his medicine. His cut is icky. It is in a bad spot and it is deep. Was neat to see it. I am glad he’s a mild mannered horse. As it was he almost knocked my son over twice unintentionally. He was curious and looking for treats. He misses being with his buddies and is a bit antsy being in a smaller pen. I hope he heals fast. Especially since mud season is coming and it will be hard to keep his foot clean and bandaged. Sad but I usually wish for spring. This year I am happy to keep winter for a little while longer, just for Dodger. Is that love?
I hope my little dinner party goes well tomorrow. Gotta love getting together with family. I hope I am ready and can just be and enjoy. I like cooking for a group. It is something I have done off and on for years. I am getting better at it. Not always good at timing things and sometimes I miss visiting when I still need to get things ready. I always enjoy the "that was good" comment. Perhaps we can get in a game or two. That is always fun.
