Today spring is going to jump into summer. We are supposed to get up to almost 90 degrees today!!!!!

202.6 ... a new low for me. Now to keep it from going up over the school week. Easier said than done. It's Teacher Appreciation Week in our district so the food and treats will be plenty! Always hard to resist the goodies! I need to keep my goal of being under 200 by June 8 in the forefront of my thinking! It would be nice to be a few pounds under 200 before leaving for Europe.

I bought some new pants for dog shows. I LOVE them. I have always steered clear of synthetic fabrics because they don't breathe like cotton (wool or bamboo fibers), but these are the bomb! They are not exactly dress pants, but look fine with a sport coat. They are super slim fit, have a regular height waist (which lessons exposure of loose skin/love handles), and keep their shape throughout the day. They are also not skin tight like some slim fit pants. I do need to hem them, but they are still okay to wear "off the rack". They are made by Fabletics called the Don pants. Worth looking into for your guys, ladies.

25 more days until I retire.... ****'s getting REAL! I need to get my paperwork in to the pension people this week. YIKES!!!!

My eye is adjusting well from surgery. Still have flashes and jiggly eye every so often, but I remember that went away after a few weeks. Lucky me - NO DROPS! I am wearing the guard at night, but that's about it.

Not much else...

Mexican sure does sound good for tonight's dinner!

The Mexican food we had the other day after you got me tempted is calling to me again. It was so good! But I don't think we will go out tonight.

Moby's trip home is booked. Not cheap but the owners and I think it is the best way. Pickup and dropoff door to door and transport via car in between. We picked a mother/daughter team who have been doing this for a few years and have many 5 star reviews. Moby's extended vacation ends on Thursday evening. His parents will be glad to have him back. They said the house felt very empty without him.

We had a good day with Moby and Justice yesterday though Justice keeps reinforcing that it is his house. When Moby sniffed at the stuffed dog toys, Justice grabbed them and stalked off. But generally they are getting along fine, taking walks together and eating side by side. Moby has established his sleep place on the bed in the office so I put a fuzzy blanket on it for him. He can look out the window from that bed too. This afternoon we will need to finalize how to send him north. It sounds like they want us to make the decision but I still need to know their preference. Assuming they want something reasonably priced and not in the cargo hold of a plane, I have a couple of decent priced options which would get Moby to them by the weekend. I found a pet transport site where you can solicit bids from pet transport services and also read reviews about them. There are a couple who have been doing it for a few years and have many highly rated reviews to choose from.

Other than that, I have water aerobics and DH has golf today. Deconstructed pizza for dinner tonight I think.

Have a singular Cinco de Mayo!

I liked that Conclave portrayed most of the Cardinals as having some good intentions and trying to navigate the temptations, instead of everyone just being evil power grabbers.

Crazy!!!!
