What I've been up to

I finished one book. Alice I have been by Melanie Benjamin. Loved it.
I read Alices Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass
for my book club, then decided to read about the real Alice. Did you
know there was a real Alice? I didn't. Awesome book.

Then I decided to visit the library that is in my home office and pull
a book off the shelf that I haven't read yet.
And the winner is...

I won this treasure on a fabulous blog contest a month or so ago. Thanks Seattle Runner Girl. I was in the middle of reading a couple other books though so had to put it off for a bit. The time has come my friends.

So I opened it up and started reading. She's a sassy little bitch and I'm loving it. Reminds me of me.

Starting the LHAS challenge and starting this book inspired me to do something else. I decided that it was time to dig out a very old picture of me when I was my fattest and consequently my most miserable. I've avoided this picture for years because I remember like it was yesterday just how unhappy and uncomforatble I was. In fat, I even tried to destroy it but Hubby insisted I keep it as a reminder of how far I've come and where I never want to be again. I complied of course, but not before throwing a little temper tantrum and ripping the picture in half.

I have no idea how much I weigh in this picture becasue I hid from the scale but I know it was more than my max recorded weight. My guess is that I was pushing 200.
