I’m down almost 30 pounds in 15 weeks and Bobby’s treating me to Charleston’s for our first lunch date of the year. It’s a great cozy restaurant with candle light even at lunch time; I’m really looking forward to our date.

Then I’ll be off to spend a couple hours with my buddy Monika and baby Nicholas before my pottery class this afternoon. Today is my last pottery class for a while and I look forward to seeing everyone again for our last little hoorah before the summer months. Rachel (the instructor) is taking the summer off and I don’t blame her so who knows when I’ll be back to Tuesday afternoon classes.

I hope I don’t have to take off the summer myself but I may not be as into my pottery like I wanted to over the summer with Lauren’s visit. I’m going to play the summer by ear and let things unfold as they may.
