Saturday Menu

Hi dad! Here is the menu for Saturday. Remember to keep yourself busy and get OUTSIDE -- in the pool and on a nice walk with your CD player down the block because the worst thing that can happen to a diet is boredom... boredom is not your friend. Find a new book on tape, throw it in the CD player, and GO!! :-)

Think about it this way... you spend 75% of your work day in front of a computer -- sitting. WHY SIT IN FRONT OF A COMPUTER ON YOUR DAY OFF?? :)

Say a prayer for me today- I'm singing at a wedding and I have a couple of solos! Eek! :)
