DWA and a Day with a Friend

Today was a great day. I woke up with a ton of energy and stepped on the scale and I have lost a total of 35 lbs since the beginning of the year. I am so happy. This working out thing is really paying off. All of my clothes are hanging off of me and I am totally thrilled about it. Dale says he can really see the change in me although I see it on the scale and in my clothes I really don't see it on myself but I guess I am just use to seeing FAT that this is all I see for now. Oh well I am still totally siked about the weight loss. Anyway I had my DWA class today and Christie kicked my butt today. I totally love it when she does that. She is like our drill Sargent and pushes us to a point that really works for us. I love her class. Afterwards we sat in the hot tub like we always do then got out and showered then dressed and left. On our way out Michelle asked me if I wanted to ride with her to the Scouts store in Clarksville and I said yes since I have not had a ton to time to spend with her since we moved out here to the city. After finding the address to the store we were a little confused because it was not a Scouting store it was a hardware store so we called the place and the lady said that the store was inside the hardware store. Duhhhh did we ever feel silly. After getting the things Michelle needed we headed over to a Mexican restaurant to eat and got to talking about spring and Easter pictures and what colors were going to where and somewhere along the way we got to talking about jean skirts and I told her that I had just found one at Cato's that was a very good price and she said dang. I looked at her a little funny and she said all the big girls get the cute clothes and I just had to laugh cause I always that the exact thing about all the skinny girls. We both laughed and then she said she wished she could shop at Cato's but they didn't carry her size and I just looked at her and said why what size do you where and she told me and I told her they carry that size they have a junior side and a plus side in the store and she said no they don't and I said yes they do trust me I shop there all the time its my favorite store and she said ok lets go and see. I said fine and we finished eating and headed over to Cato's. When we got there we found several outfits for her in less than an hour and she tried them on and bought three of the five she tried on. Plus she bought jewelry to match them. All that for about 150.00. She was so happy that she found them. She told me that usually she had to shop for like thee or four days just to get one outfit and it costs her about half that much for just the one outfit with no jewelry. I told her that's why I loved that store because you always get great deals and tons of clothes. After we were done there we headed over to Wal-Mart to pick up a couple of thing she needed then she took me home and went home herself. Once I got here I talked with Dale and the kids and then we all got ready and headed back to the YMCA to go swimming. We played for about an hour and a half and Ryan came with her kids and Niki's kids and just when we were getting ready to leave Christie and her family showed up to swim. How funny. Any way now I am home and headed to bed for the night.
