Nothing much to report. Julia has been at the sitter's twice this week, on Monday & Wednesday. Yesterday she screamed the entire time to the point that the sitter called me because she thought Jules was sick. J left work and went to get her, and she's fine. Absolutely fine. *sigh* Tomorrow and next week, when she starts full time, are going to SUCK. But as far as CIO goes, my angel goes to bed now at almost the exact same time each night, very rarely with tears anymore, and sleeps through the night. So, yay!!
South Beach Diet is going well, I've lost somewhere around 2 lbs. in the first four days. So that's good, right? I hope so. I'm eating like a bird, though today I have South Beach Veggie Quiche Cups that I made last night. It's amazing how good low-fat cheese and egg subsitute taste after days and days of nothing but salad! :)
