Sucess

Sucess is measurable. At least where my jeans are concerned. I was able to get into one pair of the many pairs of jeans in the " too tight drawer"! You can have several jeans all the same size and only be able to fit into one pair. So to say I lost a size would be wrong. I am just happy that I got into a pair I wore a few years and many pounds lighter ago. Its like getting a new pair of jeans!
I would say its the walking that has done it. I have not been eating the best of foods for weight loss. Affordable foods yes but low in calorie or carbs not so much.

This week has been a great week for yard sales and fall fun in the neighborhood. We found a super cool peice of furniture for my daughter. It looks like three large old books stacked on top of each other. Each "book" is a drawer. It sits on lovely carved legs and has beautiful inlay on top.   I also found some nice clothes for the grandbaby.

 

 

The finish needs some attention but it is very solid.

 See how it looks like books?

 The top "book " opens like a trunk and the other two books are drawers.

The puppy is settling in just fine. He is still very much a puppy. Caught him chewing on the wrong stuff this week. He is learning how to properly walk on a leash and come when called. He came to us knowing how to sit, give paw and hug. ( puts paws on shoulders and hugs, quite gently) He is part Greyhound so we purchased a coat for him. He was very cold in the mornings. Greyhounds are very thin skinned and have very short fine hair. He finally gave chase to one of the cats ( in a friendly manner) and is beginning to stand his ground.

Here he is enjoying a slumber party. 

 And here he is doing what he does best, sleeping!
