Understand, now, that 5' 4" and over 300 lbs, I DIDN'T have a lap!
So, normally, previously, when we were at church, I'd lay my Bible next to me and write kind of on my belly...typical obese note-taking posture.
We were in church, taking in the sermon, and I stretched. And in the middle of the stretch, it hit me--
My Bible was laid open on my LAP! And I had been taking NOTES there!! I haven't seen my lap in a couple of decades. I don't even know exactly WHEN it crept back into my life. But it's HERE now and I intend to KEEP it! All the better for bouncing nieces and nephews on it.

NSV #2: Ok, doesn't summarize so nicely.
I went to a local home improvement store (the charming orange one). Usually I have to chase help down! Three (count them, uno, dos, tres) gentlemen approached ME to offer assistance. Could be the result of recent customer service training.

This journey is just so incredible. The scale is moving slowly, but my body continues to change. :
