I see a warrior woman surfer hanging with a pants-wearing unicorn. Highlight of my day! Nice gesture from your friend.

Good morning from lovely Congress, AZ. Hot, hot, hot! It was 81 at 6:30 this morning. I'm not going out in that. My Dad has an exercise bicycle I'm eyeing. Maybe that. Definitely some yoga stretches and my PT exercises. I did great on food yesterday, but as I expected, drank too much wine. I'll try to avoid wine completely today.
Dad and Rog just went out for Dad's weekly mens breakfast so I'm on my own for a bit. Absolutely no plans today. At all. It's going to be a long day here in desert hell.
QoTD: got my hair cut on Monday and my neighbor said I looked cute.
bites today
B: egg and a little leftover meat from last night
L: no idea.
D: Dad wants steak and I'm making a roasted best, fresh orange, goat cheese and pistachio cold salad.
Peace Everybody.

Basically, no. We'll play cards and dice at some point. But Congress is in the middle of mostly nothing and the nearest town is very small. Some shops and stuff, but it'd be all outdoor walking and it's truly about 107 here! After driving 6hours to get here, no one feels like taking a drive that will put us in the car in the heat for hours.

The whole 6 years I was in AZ getting to Labor Day made me sad...everywhere else you knew you were getting to fall but there, it was just going to be more of the same hot for months. I am such a cold weather girl.

Good morning all and Happy Thursday,
Great news! The orthopedic surgeon agreed to due the hip replacement surgery and I now have a surgery date. It is contingent upon my insurance and the battery of required tests. I am so happy to see something tangible finally for years of working towards surgery.
QOTD- a Yesterday, I was told that my glasses fit my personality to a T. Another person complimented me on staying positive and optimistic. Complimented I gave yesterday, 'You went the extra yard, I recognize that, and truly appreciate you,' 'You have a great style of communication,' 'You're doing the best you can. I see the progress you've made so far. Start the course.'

L: Sounds weird but the sausage from a Malnati pizza. Paula picked off most of the sausage so I saw good protein for a future meal. I'll cook down tomatoes, onions, mushroom, garlic and have a bowl of goodness.
D: ?? Maybe pizza again? I'm going to a dive bar tonight and there's Joe's Pizza in the same strip center. My family has been going there for 40+ years but I'm never in that suburb anymore. How can I not order a pizza and eat two squares tonight?
S: veggies to munch on.
