The Great Pumpkin Patch




I have lost 33lbs!!!!!!!!!! Never did I think I could be capable of such a thing. It still hasn't sunk in. I run into people at the grocery store who say, "I almost didn't recognize you!" Funny I think, I feel my pony tail and say, "Oh my hair is up." They say no and tell me how good I look. Never thought I'd hear anyone say that about me. It was a nice boost now that winter has hit and I have no urge whatsoever to venture outside and go for a walk. I'm really worried about the winter, I don't do exercise videos, I hate walking on a treadmill or inside somewhere. Ughh. Don't know what to do now, I'm stressed and eating my kids lunch treats which I only do when stressed. Ughh. I feel like Charlie Brown looks when someone has been mean to him. Speaking of Charlie Brown, the creator whose name I should know, but slips my mind was a really interesting guy. Shultz I think was his name. He wrote Charlie Brown until he died. There were people who wanted to keep the strip going with other writers, but he said no, it was his. I like that. My favorite Charlie Brown show was, The Great Pumpkin Patch or something like that. When I was little those specials would come on at night sometimes and it was the most magical time for me as a kid, watching cartoons at night!!!!!!!!! Good times. I shouldn't make my kids lives so miserable so they can have some good memories I suppose. Ughh.
