Greetings all

It is cloudy here but nice. Works for me. DH gt ambitious and decided to do a bunch of errands today so lucky me. Grocery store, pet food store and also taking $ to the garage door company. He is excited about a new garage door and opener opener like a kid getting a bike at Christmas. Guess it is another big gadget.

So I went to the gym and did my walk including the stairs. Ho hum just has to be done. Then I went to the studio and did some glazing. Lots of activity there as it was a big clean up day and there was pizza. Missed all that.

So Liz that lobster roll looks to die for. So great looking. Never had one. Still wonder why there is no lobster here. That inn looks wonderful and charming. The porch! What a great celebration.

Yeah Peps retirement is indeed underrated. I never did understand why some people just can't quit work. There were these old guy lawyers at the firm who hung around way too long and I never understood why since they did no useful work. I guess some people just can't accept change. My dad was kind of like that. Such people don't know what they are missing. You and DD will learn to like Mondays - the guilty pleasure of seeing others running around when you can drink coffee and cruise the news.

And yeah DD you are indeed getting a charm infusion. Enjoy. and then repeat!

Paula glad you are healing well. Keep it up. Soon you will be shopping...

Watched a series called The Marlow Murders. Set in a charming English village with some middle aged laddies meddling with murder investigations. Kind of formulaic but entertaining.

Yum yum sandwiches tonight - the loose hamburger ones. My fave.

Y?all teasing me with Lobster rolls! I?ve never had a ?real? east coast one!

Im tickled that DD and Peps are throughly enjoying their new retirement status! DH is liking it pretty well too!

123.7 I think, after breakfast. Still have not started back on my GLP1. My PS appointment went well today. The incisions all look good and I don't have much swelling! The PA was impressed with how flat my tummy was at one week post op! Stitches and staples come out next Wednesday.

Still getting tuckered out easily. The appointment, a short stop at the drug store for bandages and making dinner was more than enough activity for me today! Improving more each day though!

That looks really inviting Liz! And that lobster roll is huge! Enjoy your hike.

I woke up around 7:30am but have been lollygagging about, enjoying the view and reading while I waited for DH to wake up. Enjoying the dolce far niente: Italian for sweetness of doing nothing. The tide is out this morning and it changes the landscape so much! I believe I read that the tide changes more dramatically the farther up north you are.

I think it will be coolish today, and a bit overcast. We will probably poke around shops a bit, and then who knows what. Tomorrow we have concert tickets for an Irish music trio.

This town is SO much quieter than summer when we visited before. Pretty much just us retired types in the resturants and coffee shops. It will be interesting to see if it picks up tomorrow or Friday. It's always been quiet at night, there aren't really any bars or places to hang out after 9pm, but generally bustling in the day.

When I woke up this morning to a water view, in a comfy bed with DH sleeping next to me on a September morning, I had to pinch myself. Is this real life? yes it is. : )

Darn garage!

DS called me yesterday about the Apple event because I was commenting that my iPad is slowing down a lot (it is 6 years old). He said in about a month I should be able to buy the generation one lower for less money. Oops - I just checked and that announcement did not include the iPad which isn't supposed to be upgraded until spring 2026. Hmmm...Since I use my iPad in place of a laptop I don't want it to get too far out of date and drive me crazy.

It's my neck and lower face starting to bother me too - it's been almost 9 years since I had it done.
