Happy May Day! I just dated myself because I had a bad time trying to find the image above. To ME, May Day means children around a May pole winding long, colorful ribbons around it. I never actually DID that, or even WATCHED others do it. I guess it was just conveyed in pictures, coloring books, and more. Anyhow, it’s an image that is fading away.

So we’ll just wish each other well and hope it’s a nice day. It was rainy here when I first got up, but the sun seems to be coming out. I was planning to work in the yard, weed whacking to neaten up after my husband mowed the yard a couple of days ago. Hopefully, things will continue to improve so I can get outside.

The cheerful mail lady just drove up to deliver the three elephant ear bulbs I ordered recently. They’re HUGE and beautiful balls of promise. I’ll get them planted as soon as the weather permits.

Since it’s the first of another month, it’s time for accountability check on my efforts to lose the lard.

WEIGHT: down 23 pounds since my heaviest. (I gained 2 from eating at the Mexican restaurant locally, enjoying every bite as I gained the weight. I’ll get it off again ASAP and then go for more.)

GIRTH: I’m down a total of 3 inches overall this month, with bits down a bit here and there. The biggest good difference was on my abdomen – down an inch from a month ago.

I’m hoping that ‘slow and steady’ ultimately wins the race.
