I leave tomorrow for vacation.  A lovely, me-and-the-husband-only vacation sandwiched between visits with family and two big birthday parties.  My daughter is turning 2 years old, and my grandmother, 90. I will be eating at least a bite of cake in honor of each.  Sue me.

The vacation with the hubs will be relaxing but busy.  We’re going to Zion National Park and will be enjoying the free fun of hiking in the great outdoors.  I love to hike but insist on returning in the evening to a nice bed and a shower, so we’re staying in the lodge.

I don’t anticipate losing any weight over the next week, but my goal is not to gain.

I probably won’t be checking in here during that time, but will be back with a full report after we return home.  Good luck to all of you next week, and I hope there is less of you around when I get back.
