Weight Watchers


Before. This was taken in June 2010

After. Taken this morning

After

As some of you know I have been on weight watchers for the last five months and in that time I have lost nearly 44 lbs which is 3 stone 2 lb for the Irish and English folk. I have to say it has been the easiest thing I have done in losing weight and believe me I have been trying for years. Here is a before and after pictures. Still more to lose but well on my way to goal.

Cody

The other day I was in my craft room talking to my mom and dad on Skype. My little bundle of joy was curled up in the only area of sun in the room relaxing as usual.







Fall

Fall here in Maryland has been late this year but here are a few photos I took recently.

Fall


The field near our home


Deering Church


The Overlook (one of the most spectacular sights when you round the bend)

I believe Fall is truly here. The leaves have started to change and the weather is getting colder with a lot of rain. Fall always reminds me of New Hampshire and the good times we had there which now seems so long ago. here are some of my fall photos from way back when!!

Little Helper

As you can see, Cody thought I was taking too long to work on my latest project so he fell asleep on me on top of the craft table. Not a lot of work done after that


Excited and ready to go to work


Got tired


Ended up going to sleep for about 1/2 an hour

Some More Cody Photos

Here are some more photos of our cat Cody who as you can see, loves getting his photo taken.

Lastest Visitor

The other day while I was looking out our back window I saw this owl in the tree. Amazing. i opened the door and hooted at it and of course it turned around to see what all the noise was just in time for me to take these few photos.

Chris watching

Cody likes to bird watch from our back room but today he was watching Chris out in the garden. Couldn't see him well a few times so got up on his back legs and stayed there for a good minute. So funny to watch. would love to know what he is thinking as there seems to be a lot going on in that little head of his.


Good viewing area


Observing intensely


He will not get out of my sight. See I can still see Chris!!!
