Hey..I enjoyed reading that. Thanks for sharing. You should be O.K. with the 7 pounds...you hired a personal trainer...muscle weighs more than fat!!! It is the reading glasses that should worry you!!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Just kidding cause I wear them too and my only worry about that is trying to keep up with them!
HAND PUPPETS!!!!!!
