How about...

...Them Mariners! 6-2 and the best record in the AL! They are looking pretty impressive, and that is without Ichiro. I am excited about the season, and hopefully I can get to a least one game this summer. I know it is early, but I can always get my hopes up.

...Losing weight! So our biggest loser contest ended today and I was declared the winner. So I am $240 richer. I lost 54 pounds over the 12 weeks for a total of 20.3% of my total weight. I feel great and I think I am looking a lot better. Losing weight feels good anyway, but to get paid for it is even better. The 2nd place person lost 21 pounds, but she is a lot smaller than me, so she did really well also. As a group we lost 142 pounds between 12 people, which means I lost more than 1/3 of the total weight. I still want to lose 10 more pounds by the end of the year.

...Not being Obese. According to the BMI (which I don't like by the way) I am now officially just overweight rather than obese. I have been obese for quite some time. I know I will never reach the "ideal" weight of 154, but I don't even want to. I think I could lose another 25 pounds and be about at my "ideal" weight. I will still be overweight, but I'm just fine with that.

...It being spring. Spring? Are you sure? It tried to snow today and the wind was blowing 50 mph. I really can't wait until it is consistently 75 degrees and nice. But until then, I'll suffer with the blowing wind and chilly.

...There being 35 days of school left. This year can not end soon enough. It has been pretty tough trying to work with kids that have no idea what respect is and are constantly disruptive. I love the kids, but they make it pretty tough to teach. Once April is done though the rest of the year should go pretty fast.

...This being the end of the post.
