Hi! Just an update on our household! First of all, the whole fam damily is doing the "South Beach" lifestyle change. I'm figuring the more people who know, the more people we have to encourage us! So far so good. We started Monday, and we've all had a weight loss so far. My blood sugar levels are excellent and I have been retaining a LOT loss fluids! We're going on vacation next week, but I think this plan will be very "doable" so I plan to try to stay "on the path."

Next week is the week L goes up to Michigan Tech, so Kevy and I are planning to explore the western UP. We've never been as far as Houghton, so we're looking forward to it. There are a lot of lighthouse opportunities on "the point" We'll do lots of documenting with pics!

G won't be going. His classes start on Monday, so he's being paid to "pet sit." He could really use the money, since he can't work this summer. The new doc says it doesn't look like the hip is really the origin of the knee problem, so at least the osteopathy won't be necessary. The other op will happen as soon as a "donor" becomes available.

I'm having a great summer so far, but I haven't been as productive as I'd like to be. . . .
Talk to you all when we get back!! Love to all!!
