Whiny Weather and Allergy Post
October 9, 2007
Why in the heck is it 90 degrees in the middle of October. OCTOBER I said! I should NOT be sweating, taking hayrides in shorts and picking pumpkins in 90-degree weather! Yet that is exactly what I did this weekend. Today my allergies are so bad I almost consumed an entire bag of cough drops just for throat relief.
I have so much I want to post about today, new recipes and such, but after taking an allergy pill, I can hardly keep my eyes open. So I’m going to take advantage of my sleepiness and get to bed early tonight. I will try to catch up with my posts and emails tomorrow, but I make no promises, as it is my 12-hour day. YUCK!

Does your scale match the one they use at WW? If so what kind of scale do you have? and you weigh yourself every morning right?

zaza - It was yummy, but I used a mix. Just to warn you. ;~)
Laura - nope, ww scale and mine are not the same. My morning scale readings are taken on a cheapo digital scale I got a long time ago at walmart. My official weigh ins are done at WW and that’s what I post on weight progress page. Actaully now tht I think of it I need to update the weight on Roni’s Stats (I only post my official weekly weight there). I’ll do that this evening.

Funny you should mention pumpkins and hayrides in the heat! My hubby and I decided not to go last weekend because of it! Sorry about your allergies, too… My oldest is sick from them right now. Unbearable.
Hang in there, the cooler weather’s on it’s way for tomorrow!

Hi Roni,
Thank you so much for the “welcome to the community” comment you left :) I’m not working at the moment so I have time on my hands (as you can see)- and thought, why not take daily food photos and help out my sister who just started WW!
You’ve been a huge inspiration along my journey - and you’ll be seeing a ton of your recipes on my site (which I’ll definitely give credit to your site)!
Awesome job maintaining!
