Prim Goodies and Weight Watchers!

Today is a snow day here and even though its nice to have a day off I really needed to work! So Im working at home cleaning and such. I decided to go to the post office which is real close to my house and this is what I found. I was so excited to get home and open the box from Jan @ Primitive Outhouse....she was my swap partner for the Valentines swap at Prim Pals Forum. So I tore into it and look at all the great goodies I got!! I love the doll and the candles smell soooo good! I take horrible pictures but there is a spoon there Jan painted with a heart and crow and Heart shaped measuring spoons and some grubby candles and a wooden crow(I love crows)and yummy candy! I love Reeses! I love everything Jan and thank you so much!
Since I mentioned Reeses I will tell you my success at Weight Watchers last week. I lost 6 pounds! I was very pleased. So I shared my reeses with hubby and I will calculate the points and have one for me when Im feeling like I need a treat. I will be honest I am actually surprised at myself....normally if there was chocolate in the house I would have it gone! Im determined to get this weight off so I need to be conscious of what I am eating for sure. I hope you are all having a good week. Thanks so much for stopping by.

    Hi Holli, I also collect roosters and need to start weight watchers badly..Maybe we can support each other, I have about 40 lbs to lose..I can't go on looking and feeling like I do. I can't start until week after next as I will be out of town next week and no point even trying until I get home again...

    Take care and good luck with WW!
