ROW80 Check In 11/23/11

November 23, 2011 by Lauralynn Elliott

Well, I thought I would be finished with my third Libby Fox novella by now. I did add a little over 1100 words to it the other night. I thought I would only have the love scene to go, but I realized I needed a scene to lead up to the love scene. I was really worrying about this novella being about 2000 words shorter than I wanted it to be, but with that extra scene added, I think it’s going to be okay. Plus, I think I need to flesh out some other things in the story. I’m looking forward to these two days off so I can really work on writing stuff!

For those of you that didn’t see my last post on weight loss and are interested in a good calorie counting app for your Droid (don’t know if it’s available for other operating systems), it’s just called Calorie Counter and it’s by FatSecret. It’s had in its database almost every food I’ve looked up. Mostly what it’s lacking is drinks, like the strawberry lemonade at O’Charley’s. But that has to have LOTS of calories anyway, so I opted for unsweetened tea. 🙂

Also, I was complaining the other day that I wasn’t going to be able to cook on Thanksgiving. But we’ve decided to have Thanksgiving on Friday, and both of my boys are coming with their wife/girlfriend. Yay!

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all! (Yes, I’m from the south.)

So glad you get to cook for Thanksgiving after all! Hope you have a great Thanksgiving and give the boys a hug from me!

I have the calorie counter as well and I find that it’s really handy. And easy to input food if it doesn’t have it listed.

  Nellie, I even tracked calories at the Thanksgiving meal! I love the app. And I’ve lost four lbs. 🙂

My family almost always does their holidays on other days, that way we don’t have to fight over who visits. It’s nice to have every holiday with them, even if it’s not on the ACTUAL day!

Hope you had a great day and Good Luck on your ROW this week!

  My son’s in-laws are doing Christmas the day after. I think it’s more important to see as many people as possible than what day we do stuff. 🙂
