My parents came and stayed for a week.
They only live an hour and a half away, but I asked if my dad could come and (help) fix the hole in our shower wall.
So they came. Dad also brought the power washer, and washed my window trim on the house to get rid of all of the loose and peeling paint. While he worked in the bathroom (taking down tile and drywall, working on some plumbing, putting up new drywall, insulating, glueing up a shower surround) I workd on getting the windows primed and sealed, cooked all sorts of South Beach food and meals with my mother, visited about 12 grocery stores, and made several trips to the hardware store.
It was a busy week.
And yes, I did say South Beach. I'm into my 4th week, and as of Monday, I was down 11 pounds, which puts me into the 170's. My pants fit. I wore a pair of size 12 pants to dinner last night even...
And even though I keep obsessing about food - can I eat this? Ooooh, that looks good, wait, it's not on the "approved" list... it's actually going very well. I'm not having insane cravings.
We will see how it goes when I start logging miles on the work vehicle next week. Driving definately sucks.
On that note, I need to see if the shower surround is ready to be caulked. I want to take a shower!

I always call on my Dad for home fix it stuff...I feel bad putting him to work, but I do think he just enjoys the time spent together...and I learn a lot. Congrats on your 11 SB loss...I too think, is it on the approved list...but now that I'm in my 4th month, it's just second nature. Sounds to me like you are doing awesome, woohoo!
