It's My Party, and I'll Cry If I Want to !!

Today is my 47 th birthday , which I also share with Elizabeth Taylor, Chelsea Clinton & Henry Wadsworth Longfellow.

I was scheduled to be in Biloxi with my dear husband this Friday and Saturday night.. but of course, the bet laid plans are usually NONE. Two days ago, I started coughing all day and night. I ended up spending a couple of hours at the doctor's office today. I have a very bad upper respiratory infection. I'm on an antibiotic and something to make the chest congestion cough up

.

On a good note, when at the doctors office today, my blood pressure was 110/78. I weighed 133 pounds. So things are starting to look better. I think the reason I gained those two pounds last time I weighed myself was because I weighed myself AFTER I excerised, AND after I drank three 16.9 ounce bottles of water.

Also, yesterday was my brother's liver surgery. It lasted almost 9 hours. He is resting as I call it 'comfortably numb', he has about another three weeks in the hospital. Please continue to pray for his recovery.

Food I ate today :

Catfish, veggies and a bun.

Seafood gumbo , potato salad and a Diet Rite Soda.

To die for -- I purchased a birthday cake and at a BIG slice.

So, for today, I was officially OFF of my low carb diet. Its been a week since I exercised, so when I feel up to it, I will start walking again.

Oh well, I just need to find my 'niche', my 'groove', and get back into the swing of things. I just feel so darn LOUSY> Hey, its MY birthday party and I'll cry if I want to ! lol

Blessings to each and everyone one of you..
