Ha ha! Cable Company
Ah the joys of moving. I was afraid that I was going to have to live without cable and internet for two weeks. Yes, it's the ultimate sign of laziness when you're afraid of losing cable. We had to shut it off at this house to get it turned on at the new place. But alas, even though our cable box doesn't work, we somehow still have cable and internet. I hope I'm not jinxing it.
The move continues. My back is better, thanks. Our goal is to move out all the boxes and crap that we can so that the only thing to move on moving day is actual furniture. This made us realize that we have very little actual furniture. Which, in turn, makes me want to buy furniture. But I'll save for the wedding/house fund instead.
Speaking of wedding I think I'm going to join Weight Watchers at work. I did it at my last job and liked it. I find it embarassing for some reason. Oh well. I need to lose some weight for the wedding and I'm going to join weight watchers. There, I said it. I'm going to sit in a room with some ladies and eat less every week because there's the frightening scale I have to get on. Now most of you knitting bloggers, I've noticed from your pictures, are thin and probably don't need weight watchers. Hmmm. Too bad I can't lose weight by knitting.

Oh I have extra ounces all right. I have drawers full of "wishful thinking" pants. I don't think I have much to lose - I just need to be able to fit in that dress and have my mom stop poking me in the gut saying "you need to lose some of this."(poke, poke)

I've always wanted to join WW. But it seems so expensive. I guess you are buying some accountability with the scary scale meetings. I would poke my mom back if she said something like that to me! I'm kind of sensitive that way.

Wow - that's kinda mean of your Mom. I feel your pain, though -- I'm the type who doesn't look like I need to lose any weight, but could really stand to lose some gut. Beer is evil. Two old co-workers of mine lost a ton of weight on WW -- good luck!

Your moms sounds like a gem. WOW. Thats like my moms telling me i needed a bra, ouch.
Rest assured, what ever weight you loose, I will most definately find.
Good luck.

If my mother ever poked me in the stomahe she'd be in big trouble. It'd be a battle similar to that of Lorelei & Emily.
