118.4 - though I know I usually get a creep up and then a fall, it still bugs me mentally.

Really strange to be writing November. Thanksgiving is only a little more than 3 weeks away! On the radio yesterday they were talking about people who put their Christmas tree up the day after Halloween. That seems like a bit too early to me though ours will go up the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Good day yesterday: Xfinity fixed our cable TV problem so now we can watch network TV without it cutting out constantly. We did go to our outdoor music venue in the afternoon, then dinner at one of the best restaurants in town with our friends. Very pretty eating outside in a garden-like environment. And we knew our waiter and the singer as they both used to work at our club.

This morning the bus leaves as usual at 7:30. It is 6:30 now and of course feels like we should be leaving LOL. DH and I are playing golf at 10 am, then going somewhere to watch the Patriots game. Unfortunately we can'****ch that at the house so need to go elsewhere. Since they are actually doing well this season I feel guilty that we haven'****ched more than one game. Will have to get my Patriots shirt out (DD gave me one for Christmas a few years ago).

DSD flew to Chicago to pick up an 8 week old ****zu puppy yesterday (I think that is the breed anyway). Pictures later today hopefully. Her name is Josie, we think because of the Steely Dan song. Their 4 year old bernadoodle is named Brandy after the song Brandy (You're a Fine Girl).

Have a silly Sunday!

That's a good sign! Seems like the people maxing out on it tend to be taller so maybe it is at least somewhat dependent on body size.

I just found this: Tirzepatide Clinical Trial

We only decorate indoors here in our condo, but both the indoor and outdoor lights are pretty much the same in Florida as in Massachusetts. It just isn't cold!

510 kids! That is amazing. In our busiest years we never had that many!

I am going to discuss the exercise thing with the specialist on Friday. We do have a gym here at the clubhouse with weights but I really hate doing that stuff outside of a class so I am afraid I will let it lapse after a while.

I am looking at available health plans for 2026 (blech) and it asked me to put in my medications. I typed in Zepbound and in addition to the 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, and 15mg, it shows 20, 25, and 30mg. The trial they are doing for higher doses must be making progress!

In CA we simulated winter. All the same decorations and occasionally had to turn on the a/c to be able to wear a sweater!

121 on the dot again!

Made some yummy Shepherds Pie soup for dinner tonight along with Red Lobster cheddar bay biscuits!

Got the Christmas decorations down from the attic today and then wrapped them up for transport to FL. I'll be interested to see how decorations are different in FL vs. WI. 10 more days in WI, the countdown in on!

Liz, you are the exercise Queen! I think a lot of the stuff you are doing can count as resistance training.
