It was a great weekend. We drove down on Friday, got checked in to our room and found out that we could take a shuttle over to the Casino. Played some slots, and went to the Blake Shelton concert. It was great, he talked and sang, told stories, talked some more and sang some more.......his encore included his wife, Miranda Lambert, and Kelly Clarkson. We played some more slots, ate dinner and walked around the casino........it's about 1/2 mile from end to end. On Fri and Sat we made about 3 full laps each day. Slept in on Sat and then played some more........this night was the Maroon5 concert and it was very different and again great. I really like this venue for concerts.....it sounds so much better than arenas and outdoor stadiums. Sunday we had lunch before driving back and I slept in today again. Weighed this morn and I'm 1 pound down from Fri.....hope it continues. Was definitely better to focus this weekend on music rather than food. By the way when we turned in our tickets we had $1.40 more than we started with.......had as good a time playing penny slots for small amounts as the people putting in 3-5 dollars a spin and didn't have to worry about whether we lost what we brought.
Now its time to really get the nose to the grindstone and start getting this year in gear.

Glad you had fun! I am full gear tomorrow as well. The banks were closed on Monday, it felt like a holiday. Happy New Year!
Sounds like a wonderful time. I've never been to a casino. It is on my bucket list. I'm glad you all had a great time. We just stayed home to see in the new year. It was peaceful and relaxing and fun but next year we might have to try something a little more adventurous.
That sounds like a fab evening! :)
You did better than us at the casino. We also play the penny slots. We each had $20 and between us we lost about $10. Since we're prepared to lose the whole $40, any time we leave with some of that money, we're ahead. :)
Yep, back to the hard work. But let me pat you on the back for the walking. Hubby and I tend to do that, too, these days--find a way to add walking to our dates. :D
Please keep in close touch with your buddy. It's at tough time for our sassy gal, and your buddy shoulders need to be big and strong, yes?
Onward!
