Crikey! It's Summer? Already?

      Well, I was going to start this one out by saying Happy Summer Eve, but that sounds like an intro for feminine hygeine promo. ( lol- I just slay me!)

Happy Summer Solstice! There, thats more better!  And as we embark on this summer season, I am thisclose to being back in One-derland. Mere 1's of pounds. Hubby has met and obliterated his goal. Alas, he did not win. We are talking by 10ths of pounds. The final weigh in was kind of shady. Hubby weighed in and the other guy was still out, running in the water suits, " I still gotta work out. i can't weigh in yet..." They finally dragged him, kicking and screaming to be weighed and he won. Hubby's station won for the Station that lost the most weight-combined. The reward? Pizza for the Station. ( that tickles me to no end. Congrats! Here, have some pizza!) Hubby took 2nd. 2nd out of 64 some guys who took part. So that is nothing to sneeze at. He gets $200 and a day off.

Sooooooo. Now that Daddy weighs LESS than Mommy, Mommy has gotten her rear in gear. ( and fire gear- more on that in a minute) This morning I was 202. Sunday I was 201, but that was after spiking a fever and lying around, mooing all day Saturday. Some rouge virus decided I looked like a nice place to set up housekeeping. Sunday was a trip to the doc, a negative strep test and Father's Day, wasted with me, in bed, waking myself up snoring.

Monday was my " First Day' back. I'm fortunate to have very forgiving work pants. Very HOT, heavy, but with the " Hidden Stretch Waistband"! Huzzah! This is the time of year we begin to question " Why did I choose this career path? Why do I put on 80 some pounds of HOT gear to protect people...well... from themselves? ( or extract them from vehicles) Is hot. Gonna stay hot. And I have little boys to put to bed, so I must cut this short.

In summary: Still plugging, PLODDING along. Camping next week, so the Summer is off to a flying start. It's always over too soon for my taste. But on the flip side, there is never enough snow for my taste ( dodges flying staplers, mugs and whatever else you guys are flinging at me! )

Flex Points Forever! ( Hey! it's WORKING! Please pray that my poor, little, abused calculator holds up!)
