Hope you had a great last day in AZ Liz! Safe travels home tomorrow.
123, back up!
Same ol', same ol' today. Worked on my Bible study and more packing!
Hello Fresh meal was a steak stuffed pita. We had left over Hello Fresh Chicken pita so I ate that while DH and DC1 had the steak. Steak just isn't my thing!
Bible study tomorrow morning and then need to check if all the home loan stuff is completed. That all needs to be secured by Monday and I got a call from loan officer today that the HOA dues make our debt to income ratio to great but he had the HOS numbers wrong, was looking at the quarterly rate as the monthly rate. I sent him documentation so hopefully all is well but I'm not chancing another contingency problem. Grrrrr!
I've never tried walking backwards on a treadmill. May just have to try it!
Your party readying sounds like a lot! Cool though that you have an annual tradition of hosting a Halloween party?
Greetings all
Another sunny one. Almost hot. The house got cleaned and the pups were visited by their favorite person - our cleaner. After that I walked at the gym. I even tried a little bit of walking backwards - harder than it looks. Really slow and had to be careful. I saw some other guy doing it at a far faster pace. Oh well, it is not a race.
After that I went to the studio (big surprise). The glass studio was empty. Another big surprise. The overall rearranging is ongoing and some of the interior is being painted after moving shelves. I did my usual puttering.
Nine days until Halloween. I need to get organized - like clear junk off the table. Inventory paper plates and table items. Make a shopping list. Calendar food ordering. Check the wine supply. Inspect the less obvious parts of the house to make sure DH has not created a debris pile. Wash the bathroom towels and dog blankets. Plan the excavation of the stuff that has accumulated on top of the two dog crates we keep in the living room then move the crates. Endless.
Have a good trip home Liz. So glad to hear you got some world class guac. Hugs to Justice.
CC is the roof fixed yet?
DD don't go wild with activities in Galveston. Pool time please.
Trick or treat.

Thank you! No hike with the rain but we stopped in Scottsdale Old Town at the Mission for phenomenal Guacamole, checked into the hotel, just dropped off the rental car, and are waiting for the shuttle back to the hotel (close by). Eat early, to bed early, up early, shuttle, then home!
And we didn't miss this weeks bocce game! It was rained out.

One more day in Arizona!
Yesterday we skipped hiking as our knees needed a rest. We went to Jerome, an old mining town, and walked around. Pretty views and a lot of gift shops but not much else. So we stopped at a vineyard in Cornville on the way back and did some wine tasting and shared a charcuterie board for lunch. Very enjoyable.
We leave Sedona this morning, probably stopping for a short hike along the way to Phoenix. Our flight is at 8:15 am tomorrow so we are dropping off the car today and staying overnight at the airport. I was up at 4:30 Arizona time in preparation for going to Florida time. We never fully adjusted for the time difference anyway so hopefully it won't be too bad going back. I checked the calendar and there are no early activities on the calendar from Friday through Sunday so I should be okay.
I am looking forward to seeing Justice. I just ordered him a cool pet carrier we saw someone wearing when we flew here. It is a backpack and expands when it is off to give them more room. His current one has to be carried on my shoulder and is fairly small - he does well in it but I thought this one might be an improvement.
Have a watchful Wednesday!

I take that amount 2 times a week. You really don't need much to maintain - Lucky you!

Liz, those hiking pictures were stunning. Definitely makes me want to put Sedona on the must travel to list!
121.5 day. Up, down, up down but all in a good range! I can tell the 1 mg dose of Tirzepitide is working. Less food noise, more meh responses to food, smaller portions (but they are never very big anyway).
I think every hanging thing on our walls is now off and either packed or donated. DH is already missing the big clock in the living room even though his phone is right beside him and can tell him the time!
I got done of my Bible studying done but will have more to do tomorrow.
Hello Fresh shrimp Bahn Mi tacos for dinner. I don't think I will get those again.
70's would be heavenly! At least the Fall colors are beautiful here! We had a rainy day today but I guess it is better than snow. DH saw reports that it may be coming to northern WI soon!
Good for you for getting things checked off your list! Always a good feeling!
