O.k., so day one is down. Or almost down. I did pretty well today. With being so busy I didn't have time to think about food and planning ahead a little bit, I was able to come in pretty close to my 1200 goal for the day. As long as I don't have to think about the fact that I'm hungry then I don't even realize I am. Put in the first day's food journal. Nothing too impressive but very filling. Good thing I started today. This weekend's food selections were not exactly stellar.

Heard from my friend Erin today. The Hamilton clan got moved in all right over the last week. I'm going to go see them when I go to Philly this weekend. From the way it sounds they aren't all that far from where I'll be staying. I can't wait to see Addyson! That little boy is just too cute. She also updated me on her sister, Courtney. Court was about two years behind us in high school and I became friends with her through Erin. She (Courtney) has come back to the area, recently taking a job with a local tv station. The funny thing is her husband Eric is a cameraman with one of the competition stations. I'm glad she's back in the area again. I need to email her.

I'm published again. I was actually out of work by 6 p.m. yesterday! Not bad considering I don't usually get out until 8 or 9. I even managed to work ahead on my troop files. Go me. Good thing I was out early too. I was so tired I was in bed by 10 last night. My low sleep nights are starting to catch up to me. I'll probably go home and try to hit the sack a little early tonight too.

Nothing like a good night's rest. When they happen.
