Well, I will concur with Kat, there definitely
IS humidity in D.C.
It would have been most miserable had I visited D.C. when I weighed 265...
I felt so blessed to be able to walk right up the 56 or so stairs to the foot of Abraham Lincoln - it was exhilerating, indeed!
I will write about the new products and share some of the things I learned in my next newsletter (which by the way I have already started: DIN DIN!). I gave my testimony Friday night at the opening of the conference and then I did a workshop on Saturday afternoon on maintenance.
Coach Dick Vitale was one of guest speakers again this year. We really enjoy him. He has the sweetest wife and daughters - their daughter Sherry recently gave birth to twins! We have a picture of Terry and I with Coach Vitale. I'll dig it up and have Unca post it for you.
Terry and I met many other health and weight loss success stories, we toured the manufacturing plant (we had to wear 'shower cap' head coverings and booties over our shoes - now lemme tell ya, THAT was a hoot! Leopard Woman wants to look adorable at ALL times and that shower cap affair definitely was a humbling experience and it only reminded me of how important inner beauty is....)
Terry and I also audited the certification course again. Our daughter Becky received certification. :-) We are so proud of her.
Terry and I each received pins and

recognition for attaining the position of National Directors.

I am still wading through
PILES of mail,
lots of email to get caught up on and the flower garden went

amok in my absence! Gotta trim shrubs, bushes, dead-head

flowers, etc. It looks as though the Stargazer lilies and Shasta daisies were lovely in our absence.

Unca was such a trooper - he stayed home and watered everything for me.
I understand that we had our fair share of humid summer nights here on the west coast - there were several days with temps over the century mark and we do not have AC.

Talk about your personal saunas, eh? Poor Unca was hot while we were freezing in the hotel conference rooms.

Keep on keeping on, everyone!
You reach your goals by believing in yourself, by doing the right things day in and day out, even when ya don't feel like it!
