Music Family & Fun Times

May 13, 2013
We had a lovely weekend, caught up with a good friend from the group the Sunnyboys of Australia  you can check them out here Sunnyboys, Richard Burgman is a band member and a good friend. He helped organized a Festival in Kingston Ontario, where he lives, the funds raised go to a musical instrument lending library, there were 85 bands playing in 10 venues, we had a great time.
We then went on Sunday morning and had breakfast with 2 of my brothers and their wives and even some grand-kids and also my sister and her husband, the star for breakfast was my Mom, she has been under the weather lately and realized she is still weak, I hope she rested in the afternoon. We then headed to my son's house where I was greeted with a lovely little rose bush from him and his family. We stayed for a couple of hours and I played some games with the girls, we love playing cards. Then it was back in the car and on our way back home, but first one stop at my daughter's for a lovely dinner with her and her in-laws, we had a great meal, wonderful conversation, and I received another lovely rose bush. I will plant these in the garden when the weather clears up again.
My lovely flowers.
I was at the gym this morning and did 70 minutes on my friend the elliptical machine. I feel pretty good today, even with being away I feel I had control of my eating, yes I missed some snacks but I didn't try to make up for them during the next meal. I feel I stayed accountable to my goal in getting this weight off. I even snuck a step on the scales today to be sure I was ok, and I was down a 1/2 pound, yippee, so I will see how weigh in goes on wed. I am feeling better about my goals this week. I was feeling a bit defeated over the last few weeks trying to get back on track at the gym, I feel so much better about it today.
How was your Mother's day weekend?
Did you enjoy a lovely meal prepared by someone else?
