Hey ladies,

I ended up throwing a small BBQ today for some friends- about 10 people came over and we hung out by the pool, played cards and ate yummy food. I got burnt, but it was too nice out not to be in the sun:) I made a watermelon + feta salad, edamame with pink sea salt, carrots and flax chips with hummus/salsa, and friends brought deviled eggs, an apricot tart, PBJ cookies and some sparkling pear juice. I grilled veggie hot dogs for me and a couple non-meat eaters, and grilled brats for the rest of the gang. We had a really nice time, and people seemed to enjoy themselves. I just got finished with cleaning up, and I think I am going to take a nice long, hot bath- get some tea and curl up with my favorite book. I am excited for tomorrow, Im going tubing down the Chattahoochee river with some friends, and we have planned a picnic along the way. It will be nice to float in the water in such nice weather:) Hope you have a happy and healthy day off. xo

Thanks loveray, but no holiday weekend this weekend in Australia. You have a good one though, sounds as if you did, apart from too much sun. Be careful on the river - sounds wonderful.

the bbq sounds so delicious. that's so wonderful you did that with your friends! and for today, tubing, so jealous of you! I was near the water too, and took a very long walk alongside the ocean :-)

It's so nice to enjoy these final days of summer.

As for the date, not so great. He seemed to be interested in continuing and going out again, but he's not the one for me. I will probably do a diary update soon about it...or pehaps i'm just trying to forget i even went out with him! haha.

I hope you have a great weekend! I watched that Robert Pattinson movie about Dali's life recently. Movie was so-so, but what a fascinating guy. Enjoy the exhibit!

We don’t need to wait until tomorrow to start fresh, today can be a blank slate starting right now.

When today is not going well, it is tempting to focus on tomorrow as a blank slate with all the possibilities that newness provides. It is true that tomorrow will be a brand-new day, but we do not have to wait until tomorrow to start fresh. We can start fresh at any moment, clearing our energy field of any negativity that has accumulated, and call this very moment the beginning of our brand-new day.

Just finished with my morning walk, and it is so cool and wonderful outside! I am so excited for fall to keep on coming:) Love to you all, Happy Hump-day!

WED

B- 1/2 sweet potato with 1/4 cup cottage cheese, cinnamon and 1 tbs brown sugar:)

L- napa cabbage salad with 5 shrimp / 12 cashews

S- flax seed bar and one piece dark chocolate

D- banana and raisin bran with almond milk

THURS

B- oatbran with 1 tbs flax seeds

ooh, I love your breakfast!! What a wonderful way to start off the day!! :)

Isn't this weather awesome? I love it. I hope to get out in it in the next hour or two.

Have a wonderful day!

Comment left by V on 09/01/2010:
So jealous of your weather :( It is still extremely hot and muggy,our fall starts the same time winter does in Fla...baked sweet potato sounds yummers! Have a great day :)

Comment left by just42day on 09/01/2010:
Yes, bring on the Fall. My favorite season! Glad you could enjoy it in your a.m. walk. Great quote. Have a super day. :)

Comment left by liza36 on 09/01/2010:
I like your quote, and something that I have to be reminded of all the time. We can start fresh in the very next minute, not waste a day with "I'll be good tomorrow". Thanks for the reminder.

We are having another heat wave in Wash DC/VA this week. Upper 90's. I can't wait for cooler temps and fall days.

Comment left by moogy on 09/01/2010:
I love the menu for today. I also really like the sentiment of the quote, I have yet to master the immediateness of possible change.

Comment left by V on 09/01/2010:
Just curious as to your meals are going for you...The reason I ask is I am really digging your selections and when I reach my goal weight I am still interested in pursuing something more realistic than the low carb thing, i am so sick of meats,ie poultry red meat or most meats for that matter

Comment left by Horn_Of_Plenty on 09/02/2010:
lol, i just read that it's "so cool outside!!" i'm sure this is not for today! we are having a heat wave around here, nice and hot in the 90s. I'm sure it's the same for you.

you always have the best inspiration on here. man, how true is that - we can change right now, don't have to wait until tomorrow. this is a challenging one, but so true.
