The coat problem is solved!

Thanks to all of you who expressed your concern and sympathy towards my coat. I am happy to report that it has been repaired. My grandmother saw how upset I was that my new coat had a burn hole in it, so she took it to her dressmaker today. She was able to take a strip of fabric from the inside bottom seam of the coat and replace that with new fabric (since it didn't matter if the colour matched since it's on the inside) and took the piece from the inside and used it for a stripe down the front to cover the hole. Since the fabric is a perfect match since this piece is from another part of the coat, it looks like the stripe is supposed to be there. I am so pleased! Yay! No more stupid burn hole on nice coat! I guess I will know from now on the either wear an old coat to concerts or not leave it on the seat behind me. These things happen I guess.

I just got back from a BodyPump class at Goodlife. It was only my second time attending that class and it was sooooo hard!!! My legs were shaking like crazy by the end. I will be so sore tomorrow! At least I know I have worked hard. I have chosen to partake in the never ending journey (and believe me, it is a journey!) to loose 15 pounds. I have been watching what I eat and started going to the gym about 6 weeks ago. I think I have only lost about 3 pounds so far, but I have started to notice myself gaining some muscle. So, I will try not to get discouraged about not seeing much in the way of weight loss on the scale. I look and feel better, so I guess the weight loss will happen eventually. That's what I keep telling myself anyway.

Well, it's almost time for Lost! I can thank Jen for getting me into that one. She told me about it when it first started and I'm hooked! I haven't missed an episode yet.
