DS is on his way to Hawaii to work at a conference. He has never been there so is staying a few extra days to sightsee. Feeling a little jealous LOL.

Last night's dinner out with DSD at a restaurant on the water downtown was great. Beautiful view and sound of the water, plus the food was wonderful as was the service. We shared scallops and some pasta. Super tasty.

Today's plan is to take a boat out for a few hours. It be the last time from the boat club as we have given our 2 months notice to quit already. We haven't even used one since the fall since it has been too windy here.

Tonight we are out for an early meal, then we go to see Beautiful at the local theatre. Everyone has been raving about it. We were able to trade our subscription tickets so we could get 3 seats together. Originally DSD was hoping to see a long-time friend who was responsible for the lighting for the show but she has already moved onto her next show. Tomorrow DSD goes home in the late afternoon.

Time to get Justice walked as DH wants to fit in gym time before we go out in the boat. Have a toothy Tuesday!

I meant to ask: Is Orderly still providing Tirzepatide? Henry Meds stopped entirely (doesn't affect me right now as I have been working off a bulk order).

I googled the reading of fatty breasts on a mammogram and AI said: "Having fatty breasts on a mammogram is generally considered positive. It makes it easier to detect potential cancerous or other abnormal growths." However, "only about 10% of women have breasts that are almost entirely fatty. The other categories of breast density, such as scattered density, heterogeneously dense, and extremely dense, are more common". Interesting!

We saw the aftermath of the tornadoes in the Fall here. Metal buildings all twisted up, parts of homes missing, trees down. Scary!

Reminds me of a conversation with a friend who was a food scientist at Pillsbury. DH: You need to come up with a low carb, high protein snack that tastes good. Friend: It already exists, it's steak.

Dolphin watching could easily be added to my bird watching routine. How cool!

And here's to all the gals with mostly fat boobs! Um, I thought that was always the standard? I never thought they had any muscle or other structure.

Well I guess I shouldn't have poo pooed the severe weather reports. Its now in the low 70s, and humid air has flowed into the area from down south. The winds are fierce, so something could be brewing indeed.

The kids were all worked up, reading me weather reports from their phones all day. Their understanding of how these storm systems work was sometimes comical. I had one young lady tell me with utmost sincerity, we can't get tornados here. I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but, ...

I have been witness to 2 tornados. One when I was in grade school, and I didn't understand exactly what I was watching, but I could see where it was on the ground and the debris flying until my parents grabbed me from my swing set and pulled me in the house. Another time I was in a duplex in Minneapolis during college. The tornado went through the backyard and took the top story off the building across the street. Luckily, our building was unscathed, but it was terrifying for about 2 minutes.

The play we saw last night was a fun romp with a serious edge. It was about African American families in the South in 1964. One family was rich, and preparing their daughter for her debut. The other was involved in the Civil Rights movement. A good reminder that even in Jim Crow era, their were black families that had prominent roles in the social life of their community.

I think I am now 2 years on Wegovy. Besides Weight loss, it seems they are learning more and more about other positive ways it affects health. Like you Liz, my DD has really benefited from the anti inflammation bonus.

120 - I just realized this morning that I have been taking tirzepatide for over a year. I started on April 11 last year. I have maintaining within 1-2 pounds of my current weight since mid-August of last year. It really has been a miracle drug for me by curbing my cravings and snacking urges and keeping the inflammation in my joints down.

Nice day yesterday with part of it at the beach and the end of the day at the town south of here. We went to a restaurant on the water new to DH and me. Good fish and a pretty outdoor patio. We will go again.

Beforehand we had a great dolphin show in front of our lanai. The dolphin was fishing and kept coming way out of the water. He swam right in front of our building with a huge fish in his mouth.

Today we are going to try getting into beach yoga (couldn't find a signup), then beach it most of the day. DD and I are going out to eat downtown tonight.

Have a marvelous Monday!
