Wow, I cannot believe we have had 45 straight days of rain in usually hot and sunny Austin, TX. Flooding everywhere around this state. The guy on the news said the flood damage covers an area the size of the State of Mississippi. It's supposed to clear out of here by tomorrow. I'm sorry for all the devastation that people have experienced, 18-20 deaths, and who knows how many houses, cars, businesses, etc..

I'm having a heck of a time with my scale. I've developed lymphedema in my right leg as a result of the most recent skin removal surgery. I KNOW this fluid is heavy, but it is still discouraging. I'm following my dietary guidelines, exercising when my leg compression wraps are off (about 2 days a week), etc. I should just stay off the scale, but when I do that... I tend to let a cracker slip in here or there and then it turns into some sugar free cookies/cake/candy, etc... so, I have to keep on the scale to stay honest! How about a new invention? How about some scale shoes? That way you'll always know what you weigh! OMG I need to get off this computer and get ready for work. It's getting deep around here!!

Have a great Friday!
