Wow! Where had this year gone?

The leaves are changing colors and falling to the ground. October is half over and I can't figure out where the time went. Just wanted to update, and let you all know that I am well, happy and still skinny. Yeah!

My weight got down to 120lbs at the beginning of the year, and I was really too skinny. Thank goodness I put some weight back on (NEVER thought I'd say those words!) and I have settled at around 129lbs for the past 5 months or so. I wear a 2 or 4 and that is about as small as I ever want to be. I feel great and have no health complaints. I eat well, even though the amounts are small, it's all about quality. I take my vitamins and I get my protein. I'm even taking a yoga class. Life is good.

I am working, and have been at my job for about 7 months. I had not been looking to return to work, but these economic times....well. I am pleasantly surprised at how much I like my job, and I can say that I am very happy to have a good job that pays me ok, gives me and my family health insurance at a reasonable rate, and gives me paid holidays and vacation.

My biggest and best news is that I became a grandmother on August 26th. I have the sweetest grandson, Brody. I was able to see him for about a week right after he was born, but sadly I had to return to NC and he is in FL. Sigh. We will see him at Christmas, and we can't wait. His mother is my sweet daughter in love Robin. She too is an MGB'er, and I am just letting any of you young women know that she had a wonderful pregnancy and is still a skinny girl. I am so proud of her!

I hope that you are all having a great fall. If you are lucky enough to see colors changing, make sure you take an afternoon to just drive in the country and enjoy it. You will always have other things to do. Make time for special moments.

It's chilly, 39 this morning, and probably about that now. I'm gonna sign off, wishing you a beautiful fall.
