Good evening all,

Just wanted to post and say hi.

Today was a really nice day. I got to spend an hour on the deck this morning drinking coffee and listening to nature. I was able to help an acquaintance to laundry. I played an hour of cards. I had a somewhat pleasant conversation with the landlord about issues in the house. I took the dog for a long walk in the park and he ran some energy off. I showed a recent video of my dog 'smoking' to different people.'

When I moved a few years ago I got rid of a lot of my old knives and bought a Henckels set with built in sharpeners in the knife block. It has worked out great for me. If I did a lot of cooking now I would definitely consider the Japanese knives.

Good Morning Jenniefer and Menuers,

It is beautiful this morning but after 2:00 it is supposed to go downhill. They are calling for huge storms with chances of big hail and tornadoes. We have always been lucky, and this usually misses us, so fingers crossed. The last thing I want to deal with is Hail to my new car. Hopefully it at least holds off till I get it in the garage.

QOTD: I have a few Zwilling and Henkle and are primarily my go to. I bought all my good knives at estate sales. I have a few Cutco too I have picked up. They have lifetime warranty, so I buy beat up ones at sales and mail them back for replacements. They are good knifes.

Accountability: I made protein balls with banana protein PeanutButter and chi seeds and honey and been overeating on them.

TSS: 7 years 4-months 18-days 166.2 Lowest (129.4)

B: Coffee with SF Coffee-Mate Chocolate Caramel creamer

MS: protein balls and berries

L: crack chicken and tomato salad

D: pork ribs

Exercise: dog walking

Water and Vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. I also use MiraLAX and fiber in my first coffee of the day.

Have a great day my friends.

Brightest Blessings

Good Morning! Off to a good start for the day, productive day yesterday, slept pretty decently, have my workout in so ready to crush the day! I will spend a large part of my sitting with my new hire training her, as we ramp up for the upcoming payroll.

QOTD: I had to look, our day to day set is a simple Martha Stewart set but John has a Henckels for slicing meat that I don't use. We joke that I'm not allowed to use it, I have a history of being a klutz and in general just moving too fast doing things so it's not out line for me to avoid using something that sharp.

TSS: 10 years 8 months

B: SF latte, 3 turkey sausage links, and an orange

L: Turkey and cheese sticks, yogurt and some fruit

S: A piece of fruit and yogurt

D: Tri tip, steamed mixed veggies, and 2 mini York peppermint patties

Have a great day!

Good mornin y'all.

not sure what is in store yet for today. My lower back is acting up and all spicy so I see a muscle relaxer in the near future for me.

We're supposed to get a lot of chances for severe weather this coming week and weekend. I'm over it. We had a couple of tornados strike the town just south of of us and did some damage but thankfully no one was hurt! We ended up with a little over 2 inches of rain last week. Feast or famine as they say!

QOTD: I don't have a favorite knife per se. I just got a Japanese cleaver that was on clearance but I haven't used it yet. I like pairing knives for little things. I like our chefs knife out of the knife block set we have,

B: egg burrito and coffee

L: probably a salad with grilled chicken

D: carrots that I'm going to roast and some protein.

Welcome FloridaMom. Love buffalo chicken. I make buffalo chicken salad and put it on Romaine lettuce leaves.

There may be a few places in Mexico that are still good, but many US doctors don't want to deal with follow-up or complications that could arise from having surgery done out of the country. If you have insurance it would be best to get the surgery done in the US.
