The wagon

The WW wagon tends to leave me behind at times of need. Wonder how that works?

I had a good WI today, lost 3.5 lbs, so now have lost just over 30lbs. It just doesn't seem real!

My current weight is now 24 st 5.5 lbs, it's a loss of 2st 2.4lbs. I'll take it!

Got Doodles costume done and dusted! Involved a few late nights and lots of headache meds! lol

Will try to get a pic of it today, as today is the class assembly.

Tonight is open house at Myton, so a long drive (hour and a half one way) to pick up JustAL from work, then the long drive back, as if he commutes on the train he wouldn't get home till 8pm.
He has about a 2 hour commute each way, leaves around 5am and gets in about 8pm. Long day for him, thank goodness the contract ends in a another 5 weeks! lol

Anyway, gonna pick AL up, so we can make it back for the open house. We've already done the NLS open house. These are our only two schools that we are willing to put Doodles in for upper school.
We have to get the decision made tonight, so we can apply onlline. Doodles is leaning toward NLS, as they are a arts college, and he is wanting to take Drama as a main course.
Dad is leaning toward Myton, as they are top in the marks of GCSE's and are a top school, not to mention that is the school that AL went to.
So, tonight will tell.

Mom has not made a decision, except that she wants Doodles to go to a school that he will be happy at, as even a top school can't get good grades out of a child who isn't fulfilling, not only his academics, but his passion and Doodles has a definite passion for Drama, so I'm all for a school who specializes in Drama and has good academic scores.

NLS is a arts college and has just this year built a totally new school, that has state of the art things.
They have professional dance studios', full recording studios, a wonderful drama dept, that has several plays a year to perform.
It is also second to myton in academics, so I'm happy for Doodles to attend there.
But we'll give Myton thier chance tonight to impress. lol

The Wagon is driving by now, so must run and jump on it before it leaves me behind again.
