In a long winded dialogue that's beginning to sound like a broken record, I lost weight when I weighed in this morning. The total is now 231 which I noted in the Fat Ass Chronicle. This included eating Eggplant Parmesan last night for dinner. The finance guy at Fred Anderson called this morning. He's finally getting around to refunding my $1,000 on the Visa card. He also said they are doing 40 clunker deals a day since the program started. So over all, everything is going great. I'm losing weight, my portfolio is earning 10%, the Hillman divvy was properly credited after a 6 month wait and the car dealer is going to refund the $1,000 dollars to our Visa account which should not have been charged in the first place. Did my 4 mile walk and met Joe on the way back when I reached Downing Place. He was just getting in from Tennessee in a rented Suzuki. I took a shower while the sky grumbled and Lib went to Etc along with Joe and Christa. They also hit the grocery store and got too much food, my opinion. Dinner was barbecue chicken with baked beans. After dinner I hooked up the A/C in the back bedroom because it was getting hot downstairs.
