Please forgive me Glenda!!

Last night we got together for a few reasons. 1.) to eat breakfast: pancakes, bacon, eggs, and sausage. 2.) to play our Wednesday night poker. and 3.) to weigh in. Ronnie (my father-in-law) came up with an idea/incentive for all of us to lose some weight. We would all put in $25 and the person who lost 20% of their weight first won the pot. Woop Woop! This will be fun. It was funny how after we all ate, we were looking at a restraunt guide at calories in our favorite foods. It was crazy. There are 1600 calories in my paradise pie at Chili's. My heart was broken. :( I am glad thay we are all doing this as a family, so that we will have that motivation and support. It makes it so much easier.
On to the funny....In our poker game, there was lots of "Girl Power"!! We were rackin' em in! Chris and Bob were the first ones out, and so then we were plotting on Ronnie. Glenda (my mother-in-law) looks over at him and says "We're going to be on you like white on rye!" And just as serious as can be! We've never laughed so hard. Everyone likes to call her "Special G" for these funny moments. We still love you G! And you too Ronnie!
