117.6 - not bad considering some of the junky stuff I ate the last couple of days.

Diane S leaves on her trip today: Have a safe and enjoyable time!

Paula may be negotiating an offer in the house - fingers crossed that it is what you want!

And DD is leaving soon for Scotland! Such a beautiful, beautiful place!

We are enjoying just being back home for a few days. The next "outing" is a day trip next Wednesday, then a 4 day trip to Maine for DH's birthday beginning 9/6. Back to Florida on 9/13. Definitely a whirlwind summer which is what is making us think hard about where we want our base of operations to be going forward.

Yesterday it was a good choice to skip the races - it poured and would have been miserably wet and cold. DD did do some betting with an online app, winning $33, then losing it again on subsequent races. She is planning on going next year when hopefully the weather is better.

Speaking of weather, we are supposed to get high gusty winds today from the edge of Erin. No big deal. The rain has stopped so we should be able to get out for a good walk with Justice.

Have a throwback Thursday!

greetings all

Quick check in since we don't leave for the airport for another hour or so. The airport is only one mile away so traffic is not an issue. We will leave a car in the lot. Easy as anything else. I guess we are ready. Traveling always makes me anxious because there is so much you cannot control. AT least the sky is clear as fog delays are common here.

Liz you are the travel pro so share any tips you have. I am taking only t shirts to LA as I am sure it will be hot and we will mostly be sitting at someones house looking at the baby. Tried to get my brother to show up for family dinner but no dice. He says he has house guests in Palm Springs. Whatever.

Hey what day is your DH birthday? My DH is Sept 6.

Thinking of DD on her mission to supervise the parents.

Good luck on the house Paula. I have heard that burying a figure of St. Anthony upside down in the front yard is a way to help a house get sold. No personal experience.

Not much else. Packing a protein bar and empty water bottle for plane ride as I can;t stand being withou****er for even 10 minutes. Cleaned all the excess crap out of my purse which was considerable. Several pounds of coins.
