BACK IN THE SADDLE

I've been thrown off the horse, but it's been my own fault for bucking him, seeing how much he could take.  I'm bruised from the fall but hope I can learn what happens when you take some wild chances.  We had a great long weekend and I don't want to take away from that.  We shopped, visited some attractions, had meals with friends and family, gambled, had wine and were constantly on the go.  I did miss having total access to a computer though but thankful I did have my Kindle.  I am definitely going to order a Kindle Fire 4G.

Friday, I could feel myself slipping, letting down my guard and my determination waning.  We had quite a drive in the rain to St. Louis and I was edgy and tired.  Bad combination when you want to be on top of your game.  We had the opportunity for another free meal, courtesy of a casino offer and maybe after you turn down things so many times, when you finally do say okay, you go wild.  I didn't exactly go wild but I felt I did push the envelope some and that just left the door open and my choices after that didn't exactly fit my game plan but what's done is done and it's time to get back down to business.

My fingers feel a little puffy this morning and I'm hoping that drinking lots of water will help help to flush me out some before my weigh-in tonight taking some fat cells with it.
