Good morning. I see pain specialist next week, so I'm hoping to get some better options for managing this situation. Fingers crossed. I got my new chair, so hopefully this will allow me to relax a little better during the day. I was too sore last night to even try, just went to bed.

Weight holding steady

QoTD - I love the country and miss our June trip to Door County. Maybe we'll still get there for the fall.

Hope the chair gives some relief. I had to google Door County--looks like a fun spot! I hope you guys get back there soon.

Morning everyone! Happy Friday! Damn, this was like the longest week ever. I don't have anything particularly fun planned for the weekend, but I am ready to have the break. Work has been stressful.

Here are the pics of my new outdoor office! It's still not done--waiting on the nice big umbrella, and I also want to get some nice big plant stands to go up against the house behind the couch, to brighten that up. But the stands I like are not in stock, so I have to get them shipped to the store.

And the sideboard is complete! I had to laugh when I saw what was on top--pretty typical for us--flowers, apples, wine, bread dough rising and 3 levels of cooked bacon.

QOTD: Are you a city mouse or a country mouse? I love cities! I love the people watching, art and culture. I don't mind the noise and traffic. But the older I get the more I also appreciate the quiet. I have been looking at lake houses up in Maine and hope I can get a summer house for us in the next few years.

BTW, Grim has been experimenting with sourdough starter, and he says today is the day! I's not on my menu, but I am sure I will have a slice. I love sourdough!

I want everyone to know, the bread and bacon were my doing, but I had nothing to do with the apples.

Oops, never mind! In my post I was salivating over cookies not reading they were bacon. The table is gorgeous though.

Do you know, I almost commented "JB, why do you need so many apples?! We know Grim won't touch a fruit or vegetable!" ;)

Your reputation is in tact. The apples are mine.

Good morning All. It's a drizzly, gray, June gloom day here. They were not kidding about the temperature dropping. Yesterday we turned on the office AC, and today I am snuggled up in a sweatshirt. We have ZERO plans for this weekend. Maybe I'll do a deep dive into a good book. My June daily gratitude today is that the air smells fresh and sweet from the drizzle and I love to be snuggled in a sweatshirt!

For some reason, the National Guard was called into our community yesterday. Seems weird, we've had no activity since Saturday night, and our 7 p.m. curfew has been extended through Monday. I feel so bad for these poor little restaurants. They were just starting to reopen their doors, and now have to be closed by 5:30 so they can clean and get their employees home before curfew.

QOTD: can I be Roaming mouse? I love it all. Beach, country, downtown living, mountains, snow, water. You name it and I can find excitement and relaxation in it. My challenge is that I don't want to be anywhere too long.

Menu:

B: coffee and 1/2 PP shake

L: spaghetti squash, 1/4 c alfredo sauce, 2 ounce ground beef

D: thinking pork rib and salad

S: 1/2 PP shake
