I ate 1 1/2 meatballs and one piece of of bread with prosciutto and cheese and was completely tapped out. I barely touched the main course. When I go to restaurants is when I really notice the restriction.

I feel embarrassed in restaurants sometimes when the restriction sets in after two or three bites. Most of my meals end up being carried home and eaten for days after.

Great for hotel leftovers! Maybe. Looks like it was a good trip. Safe travels home.

Jim,

Trader Joes parking lot is the worst! Congrats on your retirement. Prayers for your son. Being a parent to young adults is hard.

I second the worry about son's well being, is there a time we'll stop worrying?

Probably not, Sheila. I worry less about my daughter, since she is mostly launched. But it's not just about them making a living that stresses me.

Again, totally relate. Not worried about DD, and it's not about their money earning powers. It's about their well being.

Photos are lovely. Safe travels back. Hope your son gets what he needs. Will you help cook dinner or is this all on Marylin?

Marilyn and her Mom will cook dinner. DD and my youngest son will do the dessert. I am in charge of the wine.
