Holy Crap I Missed a lot in a week!

Deb and the kids got home today! Patrick greeted me at the door full of "Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!" which was so great! But what really surprised me is that Kathryn has grown in a week!! Plus she now talks!!! She is full of "Mama" and "Bah Bah Bah!". This has thrilled Deb since the first words out of Patrick's mouth were "Daddy" and he is only now starting to Say "Mom". But even that is a stretch! Anyways... It was great to be together again with them! My wife has lost even more weight. She looks friggin amazing! But those old shorts have to go hun. I'm sorry.

Now... onto the lighter side of things. It is very warm where I work... and my weight tends to fluctuate about 10pounds or so from beginning to end of day. Anywho... When I went to work this morning I put on some shorts that were a lil snug not really thinking it would be a problem. But when I put them back on at lunch.... WOOSH! they were around my ankles in the middle of the cafeteria when I was trying to get an apple juice out of the machine. I had lost 2-4 inches in a span of 5 hours. If I weren't so OK with my body and able to make fun of myself, I may have died of embarassement. Instead... I did a lil strip tease act for the older ladies at the next table while trying to pull up my shorts. Moral of the story.... well... I can't really think of one right now. I never liked morals anyways. So enjoy the story for what it is!

Moral of the story: WEAR A BELT!!

And thanks. Fortunately, everyone agrees about the shorts and even more fortunately I bought 2 new pair while I was in Orangeville and even more fortunately, the old ones ripped when I was holding K and trying to graceflly bend over and pick something up. Yep. Those old shorts served me well, but I was swimming in them, and apparently, the'd had enough of me too.

Gotta agree with your wife on this one. There's a lot to be said about a belt!

Although, then I wouldn't have had the pleasure(?) of snarfing my water while reading your story. So, Thanks for that.
