Family Vacation

My family, now that we're all adults and can behave ourselves, spends about a week together each year. My parents love the Pacific Northwest, and since 3 of us plus partners live in Seattle, that makes it an easy meeting point. So, sister and her boyf of upteen years came from Minneapolis. We all headed out to Lake Chelan in Eastern Washington. Anyone who's lived in this region knows the ocean water (and the sound) are never warm enough to swim in. Chelan, fed by an underground river, I believe, coming from a Glacieris about 65 F this time of year. Warmer than the Puget Sound, for sure. Anyway, it is quite arid, and the daytime temps were in the mid-90s (this is hell for most Seattleites). Anyway, he are some pics in my flikr account. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cairogal/

Note: I started Weightwatchers upon returning with serious determination. Damnit, how did I get so fat?

ugh...seriously, Julianna. I am unhealthy! I used to be quite athletic (even with some extra cushion) but now...blah. Being married has made me lazy. Being married to a metabolising fiend has made me resent exercise even more!!! On a positive note, have lost about 5 lbs. this week! All by eating the right way! Thanks for your suggestions!

Yay! It's nice to see some progress! I haven't done crap this week and ingested the aforementioned 6 donuts today. oops.
