a wrap up

What is new? I went fishing today... it was a good day! I'm going to a baseball game this weekend. I'm pretty pumped about that. We bought three tickets... but, we are still deciding who to invite. Its a toss up between Mike who is generally fun... but, under age... and Jason who is fun when he isn't being a huge flake! Who knows what will happen... but, either way it should be fun...
So anyway... off from my tangent... today, I made my first chicken meal. I don't know why I never cooked chicken before. Its so easy. All you do is flip it like twice... and let it sit for like 10 minutes a side with the lid on. It turned out really good and perfect. Its really cool because it was only like 6 points for the chicken and then I sauteed some onion and garlic to go on top of it... and that was about 3 points for the butter that I put on... not too bad. As for the weight loss... I'm really excited because I've already lost about 10lbs... which is not too bad... if I keep this up I'll be in good shape by the time school starts... either way... I'm pretty satisfied with this new way of eating. Its just plain more healthy. I don't feel like I'm missing out on things. I just don't eat until I'm stuffed any more... and I keep an eye on trips to the fridge to pick up a handful of cheese (mmm cheese)...
I slipped up this week a little... just a little and I didn't really even go over on my weekly allowance points but, still I try not to even use my allowance points, but this week I did because I've been out a bunch of times... Oh let me talk about my trip to Morongo.
Ok so, Erick and I went to Morongo on Wednesday? no Thursday... It was so fun. My mom's friend rented a cabana out by the pool and we chilled their and ordered drinks and appetizers and we went swimming. It was really hot but the water was really really nice, and the drinks were really good. And, anyway... Joe made reservations for the ultra sleek/ultra nice resteraunt on the 27th(?) floor of the hotel... called Cielo. It was so nice.... meals ranged from pizza at $10 to Lobster at $99! I got the $21 Herb Roasted Chicken and I split the $10 Ceaser Salad and the $8 Creme Brulee with Erick. Overall, it was a very expensive dinner... but, well worth it. Its nice to be able to have a special dinner every so often. We watched the sun set from our seats and we laughed and had a really good time. When the meal was over we went back down to the pool and had another swim in the lazy river... and a couple slides down the slide... and then our day was over. It was fun!
Anyway... I think I'm going to go nag Erick to finish playing baseball... I can hear him sighing all disappointed and loudly!
OK "Smell you Later"
