WEIGHT : 241 pounds (3 pounds lost)
EXERCISE : Not much!
ALCOHOL : Too much!


A lovely sunny weekend, and a BBQ in recognition of my daughter's latest birthday. I managed not to eat much (indeed nobody felt that hungry due to the very warm weather) but the drink was a little too excellent at helping quenching a heated thirst. It was wonderful having so many friends round. I'm not usually a gregarious person, indeed this nature (focusing on just one friend) has caused me grief in the past, so it's really an attitude I ought to shake. Everyone seemed to have a good time and people seemed a little reticent to leave (not that we forced them to!) but the party broke up just as the weather turned a little chilly around eight in the evening. It's something we must do again, and soon! My son wasn't too abashed as he had a couple of his buddies around (including his new best chum as his usual best chum is in Los Angeles at the moment) and understood it was my daughter's day, and not his!
