117.6 for the third day in a row.

I did yoga yesterday, then got my 3 shots. The RSV arm seems quite sore this morning. I am debating about going to water aerobics this morning.

Someone hit the taillight on the loaner car we had for Thursday to Friday while our car was serviced. It happened in the parking lot at our Club and no one left a note! On any other day someone probably would have seen it as it was parked close to the bag drop for golf but the golf courses were closed due to the rain so there weren't too many people around. Weird accident too in that the taillight is fairly high and it is the only part of the car that got damaged. Must have been the corner of a bumper on a high truck or a side mirror. A $1000 cost which we are responsible for. DH was in a mood about that yesterday.

We went to the Beach Club on our way back from getting the car and paying that bill and had dinner off of the Happy Hour menu. Because of the weather we were the only people there. We were out of the rain but still had a nice view of the water and I had some great mussels.

Today appears to be drier than the last week plus has been - only a 55% chance of showers vs 96-100%. But cloudy. The only currently planned activity is water aerobics if my arm allows for it. But first a Justice walk during which I shall assess arm functionality.

Have a sunny Saturday!

Nice that you get to do some celebrating this weekend in the midst of the house crisis. Hopefully you can put it out of your mind for a little while at least.

I think some snacking comes from habit (seems to be an easy habit to get into). I try to allow a mid-afternoon snack and my mind always seems to want it - the cauliflower hummus is my go-to for that.

Sounds like High Potential is a takeoff on Elspeth? We used to watch that but her character got to be a bit annoying at times.

Lack of light at either end of the day bothers me - I need maximum light. Though it gets light later in the morning in Florida than in Massachusetts at least we have an extra hour in total on the darkest days of winter. Right now when we go out to walk at 7:15 we are leaving before the sun comes up. In December, sunrise will move to around 8 am. Yuck!

The flowers are hanging in there. I have fresh bouquet of Zinnias on the coffee table. Ther are buds still on the Zinnia plants. I wonder if they will have time to open before the first frost?

Today's purging was a a bookshelf, and I found a journal I'd forgotten about. I wrote about our first vacation to Door County. : ). We must have had a great time, because I wrote that I told DH it was so perfect, we can never come back, because any other visit won't live up to this one. Plot twist, we have been back a couple of times, and every time is great! Glad you had a nice day, doing some of your favorite things.

122.8. I can tell the shot is kicking in a little bit. Didn't really want to eat lunch today but I'm still snacking too much!

House saga continues. It really is a full blown **** show right now! 10 more days to get under a no contingency contract! Showed the house to a divorced Dad today and hoping our buyers will let us out of our contract with them this coming week.

Yesterday we drove up to Door County for the afternoon/evening. Shopped a little, visited with our favorite B&B inn keepers for a bit, bought sal****er taffy and chocolate at the local confectionery and had dinner at our fav restaurant. All in all a pretty good day.

Today DSD and DS3 rode into town for the weekend. Will celebrate DH's 60th birthday tomorrow with family at Olive Garden and then have cake at home!

Greetings all

It's raining it's pouring.... Actually not a downpour but steady rain. It was predicted and should stop soon. I slept really late this morning I think due to lack of light, It actually reaches a point where it does not seem to do me any good. Oh well- early day tomorrow due to gallery duty'

So I did the gym but felt really tired and stopped a little early. I don't want to make it a habit but if it gets miserable I will quit. Then I went to the studio which was packed as it always is in rainy weather. More glazing. DH did lunch at the chinese buffet and brought some home. Dinner tonight solved. I bought a spaghetti squash the other day and will attempt it over the weekend. They say the hardest part is cutting it in half.

Quite the flood Liz. Hope it departs soon. Yeah no sense going out on a super rainy night Good luck on 3 shots. You are a pin cushion!

Enjoy the night out DD. My dining table is also like window seats on an airplane. If I get it full then you must stay out. Got to get organized for Halloween which will be my event here. Do you still have flowers? Enjoy.

Football tomorrow after my short shift at the gallery for two hours. I may have mentioned several of us are covering for our friend whose son is in bad shape. She is our treasurer and I half way expect her to resign due to this issue with her son. Understandable but meanwhile we are without financials. Others can get into the bank account so that is not an issue. We shall see.

We have been watching a series called High Potential about a quirky smart woman who becomes a police consultant. Formulaic but fun.

Safe travels Peps. Good on you for rescuing the Toto's. Hard to imagine the I-80 rest stop with 12 dogs to potty. Lincoln Nebraska is my home town. It is where Runza's were invented. Sorry you did not get more. Were you in the downtown at the bank?

Not much else. Must get organized. Maybe tomorrow.....
