LET'S CELEBRATE - MADAME PRESIDENT

Let's celebrate my daughter, Hayley Morgan Walsh, has been elected President of her Chi Omega sorority at UD.  My reaction was lukewarm, uninformed, and preconceived ideas of what this group is all about.  I need a kick in the ass.  Bottom line ........  Hayley is an amazing young woman and I am so proud.

Hayley has been elected to be leader of 200 women whose purpose is fundraising, networking & social opportunities.  This opportunity gives her endless networking opportunities across the country as well as the opportunities to lead and manage people.

She told me she will need a formal gown for a "ball".  I say, the cheapskate that I can be, how about one of the prom dresses.  She told me they are inadequate as this is "black tie".  Doesn't this sound fun!

I've ordered for her a Chi Omega signature scarf (cashmere & silk ---- my favorite fabrics) that she will always have.

Look forward to what unfolds.

The graphic above notwithstanding, no way can I be blog-jovial while two of our blogmates, Camille & Leslie, spend their days in hard labor digging out the destruction at 55 Asbury & 43 Sunset Place from the storm, a storm the likes of which they've never seen or experienced before.

PS: Love & concern to nearest & dearest non-blogmates, Danny & Linda, too.
     

Life does not feel normal and that's all. Adapt and overcome with self love

COMMENT TO LESLIE
We're with you, Lel. A few of us are even eating herky-jerky-like right alongside you, in spite of our not being hit, like you, by a perfect storm.

Hurricanes are NOT GOOD FOR THE HEALTH!

I went and looked at Sunset and I said "I have to go eat"
Halloween candy - tons of it called to me and I answered. How do you resechedule Halloween?
Today my Robert is 16 -" of course I have a cake for you". And, of course I had two pieces! My 30 minutes of joy.

But, I am back my blogging mates and will regroup. I can't wait to have a fantastic Salad as it truly has been a long time that I had any mindful eating. Like 10 days. 132.5. I'm sure it has cost me 3 pounds.

my mantra today
I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet

Have a great day!

It's a little too soon to ask the OC sisters to resume the nutritional plan.  Both had significant water damage and are spending time sorting out, throwing out and assessing damage.  It's been tough.  Both have said they realize how lucky they were but it's still been tough and clean-up is a chore.  Wish I could help.  Mom's tucked in her place.  I do believe this is what you were saying in French, n'est pas?  Avoir.

Après le déluge, la vie recommence, aussi le régime nutritionnel, n’est-ce pas?

J'espére vous voir sur le blog très bientôt!

Je suis avec vous,

Mignon
