Hello from Dallas...

It's been a while since I've written anything.  For the last month I've been following Weight Watchers.  So far I've lost 7.6 lbs.  It's good, but I have such a long way to go to get to my goal of 130.  This week I've been in Dallas, TX for the Great American Trucking Show.  I've done ok with my eating, but I have had fries a few times, so I'm a little worried about my next weigh in on Tuesday night.  I may have gained.  I feel chunky tonight.  Ugh.

Anyway, I'm a little excited because tonight my Aunt Mia and Uncle John are driving here to meet up with me and have dinner.  It's been a while since I've seen them and spent any time together.  My Aunt Mia is one of my favorite people in this world.  She's who I aspire to become.  She's a successful woman in business as well as a wonderful wife and mother.  I've got the career path down, or at least on a good track.  Now, I'd like to find someone I could see spending the rest of my life with and starting a family.  I know what you're thinking.  Lucia is the girl that never wants to get married and have kids.  Well, some things changed as I got older.  The more I live, the more I want to share this life with someone.  I don't even know if I'll get to be a Mom.  And I don't know if I'll be a good one or not.  I do know that I'm tired of living my life alone.  I'm finally ready.  I mean really ready.  I don't know who my future husband will be yet.  I just know I haven't met him.  Hopefully soon he'll cross my path. 

1 more day in Dallas and then I head home tomorrow night.  I'm really hoping hurricane Irene doesn't delay my flight at all.  And I really hope my brother and his family will be safe in MD.  I'm praying for all of those that might be affected by this disaster that is about to happen.  Be safe everyone.
