Great to hea you made it to Florida with no issues Liz. Enjoy all it has to offer.
Paula, it is true you probably need more calories right now, but how annoying food noise is back so strongly. I am not getting a lot of bang for my buck with the Wegovy anymore, but as long as it is covered by my insurance, I will continue to use it.
Diane, I don't think your sweet peas look so sad. The real question is, do they have fragrance. That is what sweet peas are for.
It was about. 6.5 hour drive to Ithaca from Rockport, but most of it was quite scenic. We met up with our friends around 6pm, (we're staying at the same hotel) and went to dinner. They were pretty tired, as they left Minneapolis at 6am this morning. Tomorrow we are going on a morning hike, then to some wineries. My only problem is we are going straight to the wineries from the hike. I brought dresses for the wineries, not knowing this was the plan, and I didn't really bring much in the way of cute tops for warm weather. I'll deal though. This is part of how it goes when you travel with others, priorities are not always the same.
I've been on the road for 17 days, and this is the 7th hotel I've checked into! When we leave here Wednesday, we will stay 2 nights in the guest suite at my Aunt's retirement community, and then 3 nights at DD's apartment. Some of the time at her apartment will involve us helping her with the final touches of completing her move. She still does not have painting hung, and there are a few pieces that need to be moved to the basement storage. It's all been, and continues to be a big adventure!
Whoa - I sure hope that there are no hidden terms with that deal! I had that happen once with one car when not expecting it. Of course when I had to buy one no such deal being offered...

Greetings all
Oops missed yesterday. Gallery duty. Not a bad day up there and quite a few visitors. I need to get busy and make more stuff.
Big sun today. Our team played early so we watched it delayed. They won by a ton so it was not much of a game. Studi buddy stopped by and she and DH discussed conspiracy theories. DH looks at a lot of stuff on tin tok and I hope he does not take it all too seriously. But he also likes to watch old Johnny carson monologues .
Skipped the gym and feel like I need to get on the laundry to do something useful. I made a trip to the pharmacy and grocery store. Decided I needed to meal plan so I got a small pot roast for the slow cooker. Good sunday food plus the dogs will eat if it we get sick of it.
Well Liz glad you are home safe and enjoying warmth. Bet Justice is too.
CC do we need to worry? Hope all is well.
Hey we got a letter from Nissan saying that if we buy our leased car at the end of the lease they will knock off 10K. We were going to buy it anyway. Good deal. Must see if there is a catch.
Paula glad you continue to heal. Yikes! No place to inject! Such an issue. I foresee some major clothes shopping.
Continue the relaxation DD. So nice.
Pic of sweet peas below. They are kind of sad.

5:45 pm - Justice and I have arrived, food shopping done, Justice dinner served and I am having a glass of wine before my dinner. 85, sunny, with a nice breeze when I arrived. Ahhhhh...

I also felt like some places were cleaner for a while (though it seems to be trailing off these days).

It didn't occur to be either that I wouldn't be able to inject in my normal spots. I promised DH that I would wait at least another week, maybe 2 to inject. I do know that my body needs the extra calories for healing right now.
We did the virtual home visits via Zoom. Worked pretty well. Probably the only good thing to come from Covid is we all learned how to communicate virtually!

I have been awake since 3:30 and up since 5. It is freezing here this morning (48) so I even turned the heat on. Looking forward to Florida warmth!
Yesterday I finished my packing and related errands by noon. DH and I went to Chatham Bars Inn (see photo below) for a drink, followed by a stop at a place in Wellfleet for some music in the afternoon, and capped off by dinner out at our favorite local restaurant. Lobster Fettuccine - ymmm. DH has another whole meal worth from my leftovers.
We leave here for the airport around 8:30. Since we were up so early there is a chance we can do a Justice walk first. I'm feeling a little nervous about juggling Justice and my bags alone today but I'm sure it will work out. The biggest challenge is bringing my iPad and kindle onto the plane so they are accessible. I need to stow them in Justice's bag somehow.
Tomorrow's post will be from warm Florida. Have a substantial Saturday!

It never occurred to me that your surgery would eliminate some injection sites for a while. Maybe DH can do your arm? Interesting too that the food noise has gotten so loud. Maybe partially because your body is calling for more as it is healing?
How do you do a virtual visit? Does the realtor just video it or is it a FaceTime-like walk around?

I love that you are enjoying retirement so much! I haven't been to that area in a long time. We will definitely have to do a day trip there but it sounds like waiting until off-season would be our best bet.
