I did not weigh myself before the pizza party. I did this AM. Lost 6 pounds but one pond is obviously water weight due to the salty pizza. Eating pizza again today to build up my strength. That's the best excuse I have. Sunny and 3C and I have remedial work to do but my back is SORE so screw that for now. Slept like a baby last night.

150 CAF troops will arrive in NE NB shortly... there are still 40,000 customers without power. Why the hell they were not on the ground by Friday, at the latest, is beyond me. Fucking incompetence of our provincial government boggles the mind. Jesus H. Christ! Our military and our emergency response teams responded to Katrina faster than this and New Orleans is a wee tad further away.
