It's been about 2 weeks since I've last posted - I hadn't realized how quickly time was just flying by!
Let's see, here's all the fun stuff that's happened:
Let's see, here's all the fun stuff that's happened:
We went out to have Filipino food in Richmond for Mom's birthday on the 29th :) It was delicious.
I'm on this Atkins 'lifestyle change' with a friend from work and this was during the first two weeks - in the first two weeks, I have to go through the Induction Phase where I basically cut out all wheat, sugar and fruit from my diet. It's not so bad because I can have all the bacon I want :). However, as everything you eat with FIlipino food is eaten with rice, it was a real bummer not to be able to partake. I've lost 7 lbs the first two weeks though so at least that's a nice reward.
Work has been crazy busy as well; the first milestone dates of my project are in October and I can't believe I've been at it for almost 3 months now! Some of the changes have been good, we had some curveballs along the way but overall, I think it's been a positive experience for me and my team. So yay for us!
Deb and Doug have gone across the pond to visit with the Imries for about 6 weeks. I can't wait to hear how their trip has been :)
Just this past weekend was the Friends of the Richmond Library's annual Whale of a Book Sale and it was busy as usual! I worked the 8:45-1 shift and it was fun :) I can't believe all the great deals you could get. I blanked out and didn't bring any cash with me, which was probably a good thing since I have so many books at home that still need to be read.

 Before the crowds came in |  So many books!  Couldn't believe how many people were there at 9AM! |
