127.8. Super sedentary day yesterday - only 4.100 steps - 8 hours in the car and 3 hours sitting at a concert. Yuck! Tomorrow will be worse with a 3 hour drive to Chicago and then 8-9 hours in a plane! We will leave around 7:30 am WI time and arrive around 9:30 PM Hawaii time! Well worth it though once we land in Paradise!

Have so much fun, you vacationers and travelers !!! Please post pictures !!!!
133 even today. Fair amount of water weight, so I'm okay with the number.
Loving the summer mindfulness I'm easing in to. I walk a three mile loop over hill and dale. Up until today, I've always walked clockwise. Today, I wondered if my muscles would feel different experiencing the "down" hills going up, and vice versa. I walked the circuit counter clockwise. What a different experience ! Who knew ! Saw different details and encountered challenging spots later in my walk. Here's to spontaneity ! Out to finish the last bit of mowing from yesterday, then I'll explore pool yoga, with my favorite noodle.

Morning every one. Safe travels travellers AND walkers! ( especially who are doing the counterclockwise gig )
Calories yesterday 920 and steps 10,000.
Today am taking life really easy but hopefully will get SOME exercise in other then wandering around pouring salt on slugs. ( I feel like Atilla the HUN )
Greetings adventurous ones!
So Paula, on your way to Paradise. Gotta love it.
Carbon, pouring salt on slugs. Don't ya love it when they explode! We have so many snails and slugs here. Tourists are fascinated by our huge banana slugs so I make figures of them and sell them.
Still 131 here. Time for a mega poop.
Memorial tea is today. Fortunately I don't have to do much as the small town ladies really leap into action. Hubby is making a scrap book of various old pictures of his sister. Its a great idea but as usual he is making it too complicated and running late with it. I will leave him be.
Puppy is growing like a weed. Poops in letters of the alphabet and hubby takes pictures. Gotta have a hobby.
Yikes, my art show goes up July 6. Gotta get the labels made and get organized. maybe I will send Shel a pic or to to post since I can't figure out how. May the force of thinness be with you all. Diane S.

Hello my pack mates. The scale is still reading 111, so nothing to fret about in terms of food. Much healthier choices yesterday. Finished the day with a couple of toasted marshmallows over a quick fire for DD, even though there was intermittent rain. It was fun to have her here for the daily 'cat walk' and we both put in some coloring time.
She's off to work and DH is off to the city to put together some things we need for our ramp deck railing. I'm sitting with coffee, kitty and satellite tv installation instructions. Not my strong suit but what the heck I'll give it a try!
Paula - Hawaii!!! How wonderful. I've never been but would love to hike the volcanoes.
Peace out
