From our week…
1. Last week I lost 2.4 lbs at my Weight Watchers weigh-in when I really didn’t expect to lose much at all. I’m down a little over 10 lbs. since joining a month ago.
2. The kids and went out to the Children’s Museum of Richmond on Thursday. After a couple of rainy days inside, it was just what we needed!! And I was the recipient of the kindness of a stranger who paid my toll when I accidentally landed on a toll road without change. But, that’s another story!
3. I’m looking forward to a new worship service that is starting on Sunday nights at Colonial Heights Baptist church, our local church. We have a wonderful chapel here that we have been involved in, but it is going to be so good to be able to take part in and worship in a local church as well.
