Good Morning Queen JB and Menuers,

Well at least the weekend is getting closer, and I did get some packing done last night. I have the flooring guy at my mom's today replacing the floor. I asked Ron to bring Mom lunch from McDonalds today around one and check on the floor guy to make sure he is not asphyxiated by cigarette smoke. On Saturday I noticed she was low on coffee. She drinks instant Tasters choice. Sounds like an easy get because who would drink that crap. I had to go to 3 stores to find it. Common I still have not found the Godiva Chocolate she asked me for. Dear lord.

QOTD: At least 20 years ago when my company was in my little town. You had to run down ever 2 hours to feed the meter. We all got them frequently. Every time we moved since then we have been fortunate to have free parking.

Accountability: I did good was too busy to snack. Maybe that's the answer no down time. However, I am so tired I want to nap right now.

TSS: 6 years 8-months 4 day 165.6 Lowest (129.4)

B: Coffee with SF Coffee-mate chocolate caramel creamer

MS: L&F creme brulee Greek yogurt, strawberries and blueberries and a cheese stick

CB: Coffee with SF Coffee-mate chocolate caramel creamer

L: garden salad w HB egg, rotisserie chicken, lemon and olive oil dressing

D: crack chicken quesadilla

Exercise: dog walking,

Water and Vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. I also use MiraLAX and fiber in my first coffee of the day.

Have a great day my friends.

Brightest Blessings

Good morning, everybody!

Our town pools closed for the season. One is completely closed and the other is only open on weekends. There are 38 days of summer left and almost three full weeks until labor Day. But I think the issue may be that the kids that staff them are back at school and can't work. The beach where I go to open water swim class has hours for the next two weeks, although it is about 30 minutes away.

No swimming today, though. I will just go to Crossfit and for a short run. This was a good one from last week: 5 rounds of: 200 meter run and 8 GI Jane pull-ups. It was harder than it sounds, took me just over 15 minutes to complete.

My son is going to make steak tonight. I would be happy with just a leftover meatball from last night, but the show must go on. Also Happy Hour tonight. Dueling Happy Hours this week because we are joining Lisa and Roger tomorrow night as well.

I'm excited to hear about Matt's French dinner and find out where he went.

QOTD: I can't remember the last time that I got a parking ticket. I have been trying to use the train as much as possible. Mainly I park in garages, if I have to drive in the city.

Breakfast: bagel

Lunch: meatball

Dinner: Steak

have a great day, all!

Morning gang. Trying to creep closer to normality today. I get to take a shower! Yay! I took JB to the train. She was losing money driving herself.

Otherwise I'm still laying low. I'm getting antsy though. The written instructions say, and I quote, "Do not lift more than 10 pounds. Ten pounds is as heavy as 2 bags of sugar." I don't know where those people buy their sugar, but it's not where JB gets hers. If I try to lift two bags of her sugar I'd get a hernia.

Your weekend sounds amazing, enjoy!

Good Morning! I had a few meetings yesterday and some follow up ones between today and tomorrow that I have to deal with. I didn't rest well with work on my mind. Ever feel stuck between a rock and a hard place when having to make a decision? I feel in my gut I know the right direction to go but it's definitely not the easy way in the short term.

QOTD: Not a parking ticket but a ticket for using a toll lane when we thought you didn't have to have a pass on the weekend. Paid it but then somehow my plate ended up on some list and we kept getting tickets sent in the mail (like 2-3 a week) and when accessing the site to review it the picture of the car were obviously not mine so we'd have to contest the ticket. After a few calls they added a flag on to my plate that has them review the system if a ticket populates.

TSS: 10 years
