Sunday, I relaxed most of the day. I did a few chores, but mostly I sat around and read magazines and watched movies. It was nice to have a day to relax.

I'm noticing results from my diet and exercise program. I tried on three skirts, two wool and one twill, and they fit. I was excited. If I can keep up the good work, I will be almost back to normal. To celebrate, I'm going to get a new haircut, buy new skincare products (I'm switching from Kiehl's Blue Herbal line to Kiehl's Rare Earth line), and buy some new accessories. I'm going to Atlanta shopping next Tuesday. I plan on going to Morgan & Company, plus other stores in Atlanta Mart, Mint Julep, Kiehl's and Trader Joe's.

Tomorrow, Queenie and I are meeting two former co-workers for lunch. We are really looking forward to it. It will be nice to have a reunion and discuss our future. I will be wearing Lilly, of course.

I hope everyone has a good Wednesday.

Today has been a fairly busy day. I got up early, did some housecleaning, washed produce and then got ready to go to a luncheon. After the luncheon, I ran a couple or errands. I came home, changed clothes and then went over to BFF MAB's new house. The only furniture that she has in there are a card table, 5 chairs and 3 lamps. A couple of other friends came over and we had dinner. It was nice to sit around and laugh and talk.

I did not get home until 9:00. Tomorrow will be spent reading magazines and relaxing. I have a few chores to do, but they should not take very long.

I hope everyone enjoys the remainder of the weekend.

This morning, while I was getting ready for work, I put my add-a-bead necklace and initial earrings in the cleaner. I wore them to work. I didn't get any weird looks. I think I'll wear the add-a-bead more often.

Tomorrow, we are supposed to wear blue to work to acknowledge Blue Water Day. Our company has a charitable fund called the Blue Water Project. Whenever there is a disaster, such as an earthquake, charitable organizations can apply for funds to be used to provide clean water to the victims. I think it is a great cause. I'm going to wear my LL Bean navy chinos and an LL Bean light blue polo. I'm also wearing RL light blue socks and Tretorns with navy gullwings.

I talked to my mother tonight and she said that Bo has made remarkable improvements. He is walking better and eating from his bowl. She said that he is really enjoying the expensive dog food that the vet prescribed for him. She said that he is still a little bit tired, but he will get his strength back in a few days. The vet was very pleased with his recovery.

I hope everyone has a great Friday.

Today was day three of my strict diet and exercise regime. It is 8:30 and I have made it. Now, if only I can keep it up for 9 more days. I really don't have a goal. I just want to be able to fit into my favorite clothes. I haven't weighed in over a year, but I have a good idea of about how much I weigh.

I still wear my Tretorns every day, but I hope to back into regular shoes by October 1. I wear my Tretorns with everything, dresses, pants, capris, skirts, etc. I ordered socks from ralphlauren.com. Now I have socks to match everything.

Do any of you still wear your add-a-bead necklace? I'm thinking about getting mine out, cleaning it and wearing it. I have a pair of earrings that I want to wear, but my add-a-bead is about the only necklace that I have that will coordinate with it. I don't want to look too dated.

I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

I talked to my mother tonight and she said that Bo is doing some better. She said that he has a good appetite. She said that he is walking farther without losing his balance. I hope he makes it. He is so much company to my mother.

For the past two nights, I have come home and exercised along with some old Gilad exercise videos. I'm very careful with the aerobic exercises. I march in place if it is something that I feel may be uncomfortable for my foot. I mainly want to concentrate on my abdomen and thighs. I'm going to try the exercises for two weeks and see how it goes. I think they will also help with my coordination. Since my accident, my coordination is off. I tried on one of my favorite Talbot's wool skirts this morning. It almost fit. I figure that if I lose five more pounds it will fit like I want it.

Last night after I exercised, I went over to BFF MAB's new house. She closed on it last Thursday, but she's waiting about a month to move in. Her brother is doing some minor remodeling projects right now. The house is beautiful, and I imagine that it will be even more so after the remodeling. Once she gets her furniture and stuff in there, it will be a home.

I hope everyone has a good Wednesday.

BO UPDATE

We were at the vet bright and early to visit Bo. The vet came out and said that we could bring him home. He's at home, laying in his bed. The vet said to feed him a little bit of food on our finger every hour and to give him Pedialyte. He really likes the Pedialyte. The vet said that it is going to take him about 4-5 days to get better. He tries to stand up, but he just falls over. He hasn't gotten his balance back.

Thanks for all of the well wishes for our little Bo.

Enjoy the remainder of your Sunday.

BO

This is our baby "Bo". Yesterday, my mother had some guys doing work at the house and one of them left the back door open. Bo ran out. He tried to cross a busy street, without looking, to get to the park. He hit a car. My mother rushed him to the vet's office. He didn't have any broken bones, but he has a concussion. We went to see him this morning. He still had swelling and looked a little dazed. The vet said that we can come back to see him in the morning. Depending on how he does, he may get to come home on Monday. Please keep little "Bo" in your thoughts. As you can see, he is holding a Lilly Pulitzer animal cracker box. It takes a real man to wear Lilly. As any Auburnite would say, "Bo knows Lilly".

I hope everyone enjoys the remainder of the weekend.
