59Carol's Journal, 29 June 2024

And when all the dust settled I have gained 0.2 pounds. That is such a win!!

I weighed in almost two weeks ago. In that time I was at a music festival where I was cooking 7 hours two days in a row. The baker had AMAZING homemade baked goods. I am such a sucker for that kind of crazy! I sampled many of them and there was so much to sample! When I came home I was up a full 4 pounds. The damage that can be done in literally two days!

I have returned to eating 'normally'. Since coming home I have eaten on average a few calories below my top end of my calorie window. And I have managed to make the gain 0.2 pounds overall. Could have been so much worse!

This week is my last week before my big party! Not sure if I will be logging in next Saturday as I will have around 100 guests camped behind my barn. I will likely just go be a hostess! Next Saturday I am having a games tournament (horseshoes, darts, backgammon, Euchre, Crib), a pig roast for 100 people and a dance with my favorite Blues Band coming to play (they are travelling 300 miles each way!)

In the meantime I have been hard at it to get ready for it all. My decks are stained, the floor of my barn has been changed, gravel has been hauled and have I been mowing the lawn! My lawn is about 5 acres. My whole place is 10 acres and I am sure I am mowing at least half of it! We have been getting lots of rain (which we need) however it has delayed a lot of my outside stuff. Today I will do the last mowing until after the party. It is supposed to start raining tomorrow and keep raining until Wednesday. Then lovely weather Thursday to Sunday. Hope that holds!
