Happy Freaking New Year!

Ok, so that may not be a great title. I really am happy that it is 2010. I was having a good time and fairly nice visit with my sister and brother-in-law. She gave me and early birthday present (29 days early) that i got to open this morning. :-/ Part of the gift was very nice..she got me some embossing folders for my Sizzix. But the other part of the gift was a diet book called "Sugar Busters" --sigh-- I can't win somedays! I glanced through it and said "This is pretty much how I already have been eating the last 9 months" She replied "Yeah, I thought so too" Oh really? Then why the heck buy it for me? Why is it she always wants to give unsolicted advice on eating? This is the same person who keeps food past the expiration date and leftovers for more then 4 days. I would have thought after many conversations with her on things Dad has said and ones in years past when I have more or less told her to mind her own business on such subjects as my weight and diet that she would "get it". I guess that once again I was wrong! I guess some people don't get that if you want a diet book you will 1. Buy it for yourself or 2. Request that specific book. You do not give someone a diet book that they don't ask for.
On a brighter note: I did a workout today (with sis who could not keep up!) and I pre-viewed the Sparkpeople bootcamp that starts Sunday. Would it be cheating to start it a day early? Everyone have a great weekend!
