Surprising that I am first today! Usually I am 1-3 hours ahead of everyone, but here I am in the same time zone as CC, Peps, and Diane S.

Travel yesterday was smooth. We met DSD for dinner at a Mexican restaurant next door to our Inn. Cute atmosphere but mediocre food.

Today I am in search of a pair of cowboy boots. Always wanted them but talked myself out of them numerous times. I am determined to JFDI.

Hopefully will find cute places for lunch and dinner. Our Inn is in a quaint little area with a great view from our private patio. There is another cute town 5 minutes away where DSD is staying. Old Town Scottsdale is about 30 minutes away. We will probably do at least some exploration with DSD. Nephew, niece, great-nephew and niece's Mom are driving to Grand Canyon for the day. We have been there and it is a LONG drive so we are passing on that.

Have a fiscally irresponsible Friday!

Funny how sometimes music you remembered liking when you were young just doesn't appeal anymore but other classic music stays with you.

So happy for you that you have a firm contract and can move forward with Florida. It was meant to be!

No surprise that you are burned out! Nice that your weight is settling down. Just keep doing what you are doing and you will be in prime form for the PS.

Greetings all

Another sunny day here but kind of windy. Still I could feel warm sun on my back when out and about. I did a bank deposit and then went to the gym and walked. Saw my sparkly friend there in a purple sequined witch hat. Love it. I started to listen to old Moody Blues music but dumped that quickly. Not what I remembered. After that I made a quick store stop for half and half and a few essentials. Farmers market is outside the store and has the usual hippie music.

DH was very industrious this morning - loads of laundry, watering flowers, cleaning the vacuum and all manner of things. No clue why but I will take it. Little does he know that we are having spaghetti squash tonight. I have never made it before and he may hate it.

Congrats on the house deal Paula. It was meant to be. Hoping you can do the rental deal you want in Fla. I think that is pretty common.

Well Liz if book club is not appealing then don't go. You have enough to do. Congrats on the continued maintenence.

Peps I bet the other dog show people were glad for your absence today so they could have a shot! You really clean house wherever you go. Glad you have lost the "travel baggage".

Rats on the rain DD. But I am sure your dinner party will be great - rain or shine. Not a fire pit day for sure.

Our neighborhood is really getting decked out for Halloween. And our princess bush is blooming beautifully and sadly we will have to cut it soon because it blocks the kitchen windows.

Diane S

122.1, back on the downward trend. A little stress makes me eat more, a lot of stress makes me eat less! Guess which one I've been under! Lol!

As some of you have already seen, we have another buyer for our home and this time no home selling contingencies! We are thrilled and I'm pretty sure the buyers are too! They were the first people to schedule a showing, hours after it listed. I guess they have been trying to find the right house for over a year! It really has been a great home for us! Same closing dates, November 14 for WI home and November 17 for FL home!

Not much happening today besides signing house contracts! Gotta get back to selling furniture and packing up boxes. We are going to see if the FL sellers might let us rent from them for a week prior to closing (since they are already out of the house) so we don't have to stay in a hotel or VRBO with the dogs. We can sign all the title papers for WI the week prior.

Safe travels Liz and DD! I have friends that are visiting Sedona right now and they just love it! Such a beautiful area!

Congrats on the scale moving in the right direction Peps! Remind me what PS you are starting with. I think face but can't remember for sure!

The kitchen and the patio are the 2 favorite parts of our house for me! It really has been a dream house for us!

Yeah on losing the traveling weight! I'm on the side of not having all the tempting free food will make it easier to follow an eating plan. You can't eat treats if they're not within arms reach : )
