Surprisingly little movement on the scale this morning: 208.8. I thought surely I would be down at least a pound. Hmmmm...

I have two dogs to trim today. One will be easy peasy. The other will be a bit of work, but reasonable. Other than that, I'll take it easy. LOL... BFF is coming over tonight. We'll get dinner and maybe even take in a movie.

Not much else...

Super Sunday!

9 and Dine sounds like a lot of fun! I love that you guys are so active and have a great social life. That is the thing I'm really looking forward to in FL, besides the nice weather!

DSD here until Tuesday I think and then DS2 rolls into town for 2 days starting Tuesday. Nice that all the kids are trying to spend time with us before we move south.

Today our buyers are having an open house. If it doesn't go well, they are supposed to release us from our contract. 7 more days to get a solid contract on our house. Yikes!

Our neighbor was talking about how his parents should buy our house. DH just went over there to see if they are serious or not. I know the neighbor could use the help with kid herding. Their two girls play on a traveling volleyball team and are soooooo busy!

Gloomy day today with typical cool Fall temps for WI. Tomorrow we may all go to the pumpkin patch. It is about an hour away and the kids all have good memories of going when they were littles and like to still go as young adults. Caramel apples, fresh baked pies and muffins, petting zoo, corn maze, coffee shop, the whole shebang. Tomorrow's weather is supposed to be more of the same! Sweater weather!

Yes! No more road trips until January. And that will be to Palm Springs which is an 8-9 hour drive with no time changes! Then I have no long hauls until March.

119.2 - why it's up 1.6 after 3 days at the same level baffles me but I'm sure it will settle down in a day or 2.

Yesterday it finally cleared in the afternoon after a week of rain and the sun actually came out. We went to our frequent Saturday afternoon venue for music then came home and finished the deconstructed pizza I made the other night. I was able to attend water aerobics before that even though my arms were a bit sore from the 3 vaccines. Still slightly sore this morning but not much.

This morning the bus leaves at 7:30 (of course). At some point today I need to give Justice a bath. He has a rather doggy smell. We have a Nine and Dine at 3 (nine holes of golf followed by a dinner). It should go off as planned now that it is finally dry though that was questionable up until late yesterday. We are playing in a foursome with good friends and we are all dressing up in pumpkin outfits of some sort or another (Halloween themed game). If all 4 team members are dressed up, points are deducted from the final score. Will provide pictures afterwards.

Have a surprising Sunday!

Nice that DSD feels comfortable inviting her other family members. We have both been lucky to be able to blend our families.

What a wonderful opportunity to step back into your younger shoes! Definitely tossing the awkward ones is in order, but the others could be a great gift for your kids eventually.

"A bit done in"? I would be completely wiped out after all the traveling you did. Are you going to stay put for a while?

Oh no! Hopefully they can improve the drainage design on the roof when they repair it?

I walked no more than 3 at a time. Buster and Grizz were a pair (as usual), then the two feral Cairn puppies were another pair. The 3 older adult Cairns I walked as a threesome. With three of us sharing walking/potty duty it really only took about 20 minutes to get all 12 dogs walked a pottied. Though, admittedly, I got up and out earlier than my traveling companions so that my dogs could have a nice proper walk by themselves before getting in the van for the day.

Sorry about the tail light Liz. I agree that the person doing the damage was a jerk not to leave a note.

123.4 today. Dang sal****er taffy! Lol!

DSD had a little breakfast party at our house today for DH with relatives from his first wife's family. I knew one was coming over to visit and was surprised when it ended up being 3 extra!

Dinner out with a lot of the same gang tonight.

Must be vaccination season. DH got 2 yesterday, Luz got 3 and I just got 3 a few minutes ago. Used my waiting time to get caught up with you all!

Peps, I somehow missed the walking terroir story, will have to back and see what I missed. Glad you are back home to your pack, including DH.

Nice to see you posting again CC. Missed hearing about your life and about Kirby's antics!
