I'm leaving on a Jet plane....

I am sitting here on my sisters computer....she left for work after we said our goodbyes...no tears this time though so that is PROGRESS for both of us. She will be coming to Florida for a long weekend in the beginning of Dec. with my mom and niece. We will than be coming back to LI for Christmas.

Last night Steve and I took the whole family including my sisters mother and father-in-law out to dinner to celebrate my sister having received her Masters degree! It was so bittersweet as we all felt the missing presence of my brother-in-law who was her biggest supporter and whose working 2 and sometimes 3 jobs at a time allowed her to go to school full-time.

Our initial reason for coming to NY at this time was my daughter Mallory's friends wedding (I will post pics when I get home and upload to my computer). Now that Christina's wedding is out of the way, we will be turning up the volume on Mallory's wedding. We still have to get favors, flowers and when I come back in December, we will be sitting with the caterer to finalize the menu! I suspect that things will be really going fast from this point.

I am looking forward to getting home though, and getting back to my routine. I didn't go to the gym at all since getting here! I have an appt. tomorrow though and between that and getting back to my regular eating, I should be fine! While I haven't been able to over-eat, I have not been making the best choices when I do eat! I am actually looking forward to my protein smoothies and Greek yogurt breakfasts as I have not had any while here. That also means that I have not been getting in all my protein.

Plane leaves at 12:40 and we haven't packed yet so I really better get moving on that!

I always feel the same way when I travel and I also noticed that my band gets real tight whenever I fly. It's a good thing though for the most part. :)
