Rewarding

William is home!
It's been wonderful.  I love him so much and I'm so glad that he's home with me.

When he got home on Wednesday we went to Papasitos because it's the closest thing to Escalante's in Dallas. Thursday I took William on a surprise date! We went to BJ's for dinner and then to the Improv Comedy place to see Christopher Titus.  It was a great show! We love comedians and I like that Chris Titus isn't too inappropriate.  William liked his surprised.  Friday was my school carnival.  Jonna, Bryan, William and I all went and wasted money  supported Spring Creek by eating too much cotton candy and failing miserably at winning a 2-liter bottle of soda by way of a ring toss. I had to work a shift at the welcome table... even though I worked the last shift and it turned out to be more of a good-bye table.

This weekend we ran (me 14 miles and William 6... yes... I beat him... no wait... I more than doubled him), bought a dresser, went to dinner with friends, went to church, and went shopping at the mall.

It was a great weekend doing normal things!

I had another extremely successful day of shopping.  So successful William almost convinced me to spend way too much money.  He is such a bad influence on my spending! Needless to say when I realized how many dress sizes I have dropped (2... count them... 2!), I went home and tried on almost every piece of clothing in my closet.  I fit into every dress I own again! Every single one! William says it's like I bought 14 dresses today! :)

I'm so happy with my progress... even though I know I'll probably gain weight this week (because William is also a bad influence on my waistline) I know I'm headed in the right direction.  I've lost a ton of inches and that is priceless!
