06.13.2006 :: In which Sandy makes a list because she can't write for beans today. Or yesterday. Or the day before. etc.
~My blog words seem to have left me. This is not good. I hate that.
~Week 2 of Weight Watchers. This is a necessity. I would love to say that I need to lose 10 pounds. And I do. But I also need to lose many 10's more. I am doing the at work program which is like god himself coming down and putting WW right in front of me. How could I not? Realy.
~It's going very very well.
~The sky is blue
~The sun shines
~Twizzlers were the big favorite at the graduation party. I bought 5 pounds of them. They are almost gone.
~I hate twizzlers, which is why I bought that particular candy
Pictures:
Bethany and Derek: 2 of the loves of my life
Look! Andy is almost smiling! He is one happy daddy! (me on the right, don't say I never post a picture of myself. I believe this is 2 recently. Enjoy it)
Prom with boyfriend.
Huge limo and limo mates (white dress/white tux so you can find them!)
~Maybe someday, I'll talk about knitting again. Or be funny. I like to be funny. Or someday, I'll be able to write something coherant.
I aspire to this.

Looks like a fun time. I love the Twizzlers trick - I do it all the time for my boys and at Halloween. I'm glad I'm not alone.

Knitting. So overrated ;)

Did they all fit in that limo? I see the tailgate is open -- who got stuffed in there? ; )
Oh, I wish I could have WW at Work! You're SO SMART, buying Twizzlers! Me, too, hon -- many 10s... one at a time.

Ye gads, I'm not sure I would be blogging at all with so much going on!! You go!

I love all the pictures. Such a busy and wonderful time. I am in my first week of WW, although I have no idea about the at work program. Hah! Probably cause I don't work. But anyway, I have a long ways to go myself. I'll be celebrating my first week by going to my fave Mexican restaurant. Shhh, don't tell ;) Keep up the good work!

Wow looks like you've got a lot going on!
Posted by: Kelly on 06.14.2006 AT 12:22 PM
Whew! That's a LOT of activity all in a short time. No wonder you're a bit short of words. Too much to process!
Have a rest (before the Shopping for Freshman Year marathon begins!) and it'll come back. :-)

Congratulations! Everyone looks so adorable.
Don't worry about the words...much like knitting mojo, they come and go. Forcing it never works. My blog entry read like a 1st graders yesterday. Seriously bad.
This too shall pass =)

I love the picture of you with Bethany and Andy, you look SO PROUD!
Good luck with WW, we are all here for support if you need anything!

Congratulations to the graduate and her family ... what a major milestone! You have such a lovely family ...
Did all those kids really fit into that limo? Color me amazed.

Go WW! I have had good sucess with WW; I have some friends that have lost 60, 70 and 100 lbs! Even my mom made her goal, and she had NEVER IN HER LIFE dieted. You can do it!
Posted by: suzanne on 06.14.2006 AT 09:13 AM
Neat photos, even if non-knitting. I flunked out of the last WW at Work, and still need to lose weight. It's a great program, though. Congrats to the graduate.
Posted by: Paula on 06.14.2006 AT 09:12 AM
Congratulations to the granulate and the Mom!
Posted by: Laurie on 06.14.2006 AT 07:04 AM
Congratulations! My two oldest (twins) graduated this weekend as well. Kind of bittersweet, isn't it?
Posted by: Annie on 06.14.2006 AT 06:14 AM
I love your list, and damn. Beautiful children.
Posted by: stephanie on 06.13.2006 AT 10:30 PM
Hi Sandy...good luck with WW. I love it and thankfully am almost at goal. You can do it. The first month is tough, but it does get easier. Twizzlers are a curse!

PGD: Post Graduation Depression, realizing your baby is going to be out of the nest soon. PLUS, you have a kitchen sink. That works. After all this time. You need something new to obsess about. Hmm...how about that garden?

Oops. I forgot:
Are you drinking your water? Oh, wait, that's me who needs to be reminded. Nevah mind.
Posted by: Norma on 06.13.2006 AT 06:28 PM
Where to begin. I think a list is in order - following your lead.
- That color of blue really suits you. (perhaps a sweater in this color sometime soon?)
- You all look so happy.
- Andy is almost smiling. (oh, you already said that)
- Bethany and boyfriend are a hellishly cute couple!
- You hate Twizzlers?!
- They all fit in that limo?!
- Congratulations to Bethany.
- XOXO

I think it is your body's natural defenses to shut down blogging capabilities - you've got so much going on right now! When things slow down, the words will come. :) Hope you are enjoying every moment of this big time in your life!!!
Posted by: Jackie on 06.13.2006 AT 05:37 PM
Great pictures! YAY! Lots of stuff, but good stuff so it's okay. Good luck with WW.
Posted by: Cara on 06.13.2006 AT 05:25 PM
Such great photos - did all those kids go in the same limo? Yowza!
Posted by: Carole on 06.13.2006 AT 05:24 PM
Pictures will placate the salivating and hungry blog for a good long time.
Posted by: claudia on 06.13.2006 AT 05:17 PM
You are way too busy to worry about the knitting!
I'm doing the WW thing at work too. It really does kind of feel like they just tossed it right in front of you. It's been going really well for me too.
Posted by: Nancy on 06.13.2006 AT 05:09 PM
You look great and so does the rest of your family!
Posted by: margene on 06.13.2006 AT 05:08 PM
SO much going on lady! I think you're doing exceptionally well to blog at all.
;-)
Posted by: Sandy on 06.13.2006 AT 05:03 PM
Looks like you had a great day! And I do like that Twizzlers trick. I use something similar because my DH has a tendency to eat my favorite snack foods! And here's a neat sky for you straight from the St Louis area.
