Happy Friday!!!

The sheep does love her Fridays. It usually tends to be an easier day (although today was not...many, many wild and out of control children and many, many absent staff to not deal with them) but the best part is that it is Chocolate Day! Why, you may ask, would one only designate one day of the week for chocolate? Does it not contain antioxidents? Is it not the finest substance on earth, one that creates a feeling of calm and well-being that no drug can approximate? Yes to all. However, I recently lost a significant amount of weight (50 pounds to be exact) and I find that allowing myself one day of indulgence keeps me on the straight and narrow for the rest of the time.

My last birthday put me into a new decade and I guess I decided it was time to start being a responsible grown-up and take a little better care of myself. I have learned that knitting and spinning do not burn the kind of calories that I'd hoped and that diet and exercise might need to be part of the repetoire. Speaking of Birthdays, here's a fun little item:

Mine seemed to indicate that I have more wealth than I actually seem to be able to spot in my bank statement, but it still gave me a good feeling to know that the possibility exists. Retiring, living the life of leisure, buying the finest imported chocolates...on Friday, of course!

Hope your Friday is filled with chocolate and the promise of found wealth!
