DS leaves today to go back to Portland Maine. I think he actually enjoyed staying with Justice here, then spending time with us. We had a nice walk on the beach in Provincetown. DH bought an annual senior pass to get into any national park (the beach there and many others near us are part of the National Seashore). The pass cost less than one day of regular parking. After the beach we ate lunch at that restaurant I mentioned. We like to eat up on the second floor overlooking the harbor. Beautiful views and the food and service were quite good. We usually eat in the bar and meet a lot of people but the bar was full so we had table service in the next room with the same view. Last night we had our first fire of the season in the fire pit after leftovers. Nice day overall.

Today we might bring my outdoor furniture up onto the deck and maybe get flowers to put in the planters. Then maybe go to the beach after DS leaves. The weather is supposed to be warm and sunny. Yesterday it was too windy to sit on the beach but I think it might be calmer today. Not sure about dinner tonight.

Have a super Saturday!

Consistency in exercise is the most important thing. Just keep walking on that treadmill!

Yes, there is something to DH liking baggy clothes (though even he admits it has gone too far in some now, hence having to buy a few things). There is also the fact that he just hates spending money on clothing. Thinks everything should last forever LOL.

Sounds you had a very full Thursday! I hope you don't burn yourself out in early retirement LOL.

I agree on the clothes shopping. Always fun for me to have something new but especially if I know it will fit well and I will look slimmer. DH has had to be forced to dump some old tee shirts that he bought from Tommy Bahama that looked like pregnancy shirts even when they fit him better (they kind of belled out at the bottom). Now that he is slimmer they really look terrible. But he hates tossing/donating them because they cost a lot (more than I would have payed for a tee shirt to tell the truth).

You are very consistent in your exercise and have made great strides! Be proud!

Greetings all

Mixed sun and shade here but lovely overall. Kind of warm so I T shirt came out. I did not find any new ones this time.This one is from a dog show in 2001 and is too big.

Well Liz, maybe your DH likes wearing baggy clothes because they make him feel thin! But yeah, some guys just do not want to buy clothes; my DH is one of those also. NWT jeans is a momentous thing! Enjoy Provincetown.

And DD you are rocking your retirement so far. But I can't believe you are going to the gym AFTER you did all that heavy yard work. Years ago we took up a bunch of sod for flower beds and piled it all up and added rocks and flower. It made this hill that we call Alcatraz. It has slowly sunken down. Maybe you hill could be a rock garden? Enjoy dinner out. Concert sounds great.

So I went to the gym after a few days absence. I am up to 23 minutes which is not much but far better than where I started. Burned 67 calories. After that it was studio time to make more trinkets.

Paula you are becoming Jane Fonda! Work out woman! You look buff and slim. Yay!

Not sure what is for dinner tonight. Maybe hamburgers.

I have been thinking about when I was at my lowest weight = 117- and how I loved being that thin. I am far from that now and really would feel better if I got some flab off. Maybe getting closer to doing something.

Cheers all. I will try to post a picture of another rose - the little rose bush that could. Diane S
