Liz, I hope all goes well with DD's surgery today!

203.0 this morning. 100% acceptable IMO after 2 weeks of travel. I have 4 weeks before my next road trip. I'm going to work on getting solidly below 200 over those next weeks. I confess I enjoyed many desserts this trip, so it's nice to have the scale recognize that I made adjustments for the extra dessert calories. I don't keep track of my weight these days so I went back a couple weeks to find a posted weight. Last weight I posted was 203.2, so I didn't come back any heavier than when I left. SCORE!

It feels lovely to sit with my coffee in MY chair this morning surrounded by my pack of hounds.

If I don't start sleeping better soon, I think I am going back to CBD gummies at bedtime. I'm tired of the fractured sleep.

Busy-ish day ahead with appointments. BFF wants a hair cut, too.

Paula, when is your move date? How did the boys and DC1 take the news?

Blitz has a date today. He'll be happy. LOL!

Toodles!

No weight - I am sitting next to DD in the pre-surgical area. We arrived at 5:30 am (it is 6 now).

Today would have been deceased DH and my 44th anniversary. Strange to be spending it here.

It will be a long day but hopefully will end with DD going home which is the plan if all goes well. If she stays overnight I will get a hotel room for tonight again. I just checked and the hotel I was at has rooms available tonight. If I drive back to the Cape today I will have to worry about potentially hitting bridge traffic.

Will report back later! Have a fine Friday!

PS: I decided to take the free protein drinks because I figured someone like SIL will take them if I don't like them. They said they sent the same offer to other members of this group if you are interested.

I hosted a brunch at our house today and I just got finished leading the last several months of a Bible study. I think the flowers were part hostess gift, part thank you for leading our Bible study, part we are going to miss you when gone!

Why the flowers? Because they love you in the group but you are leaving? What a tribute.

I actually want to do Hello Fresh once we are in Florida but it seemed very gung-ho until I backed off now no deals...

Oh my goodness! That travel schedule was insane. And the first day back activities insane as well!

The sale of the house went to another couple that were looking for a ranch in our part of town. Their kids are getting a bit older and will be leaving the nest in the next several years so they were wanting something that would work now and down the road as they age!

Surgery is next Wednesday! Excited and a little nervous!
