125s

Weighed in in full compression garb. Keeping the leg as small as possible, for tomorrow's custom fitting.

Working on changing out the handles / knobs on kitchen cabinets & drawers. Of course, a significant number of screws are stripped, and won't come out. Who knew, but there is a drill bit for removing stripped/damaged screws ?! It is a beautiful thing.

Everyone here is so focused on moving forward in a positive way... so inspirational. I work to be grateful for my skinny, and to identify and respect the steps I take to maintain it. That is our strength when challenges arise, because they will. We will continue to meet and rise above those challenges.

DD married yesterday in a small wedding.  I ate too fast but not too much.  Restriction still there.   Good day, Good food day. 

On the way home we stopped at Goodwill distribution warehouse in Little Rock. It is all sorted in flat carts that are about 3 ft wide and 12 ft long and 12 inches deep.  about 50 carts. Sorted means some carts have clothes, some carts have books, some have electronics. There was one completely full of stuffed toys.  I've been told that all of the stuff they take in comes there first.  Books are 50 cents and clothing is per lb.  It is mostly junk but Lodie has the gift of finding treasure. Take your own bag and gloves to dig through the stuff.  Very tiring afternoon but we got a big duffle full of clothes and 8 books for  $15.50 total. 

Have a wonderful Sunday.

Congratulations on the daughter's wedding. I'm sure it was a grand day for all of you. I think I have seen Lodie here on the boards. She is your lady?

Yes Lodie is mine. She has recently started posting. We married young. 15 and 17.  In OCT, 42 years.  Most of them good.  We are still friends.  Immeshed  really. Moving into a 25 ft airstream so we better like each other. 

The wedding was very small and short with food.  Best one I've ever been to.

That's wonderful. I always notice her posts because she gives such sound advice and seems like such a nice lady. Congrats to you. My husband and I are now going on 34 years. I think we may like each other as well. -lol-

I am very fortunate in a mate. Congrats to you as well.

Congratulations on everything to do with the wedding!  

I am also impressed by your (and Lodi's) tenacity to sort thru a lot of stuff to find treasure!

Amen sister!

128 on the dot. Calories high yesterday and no exercise but got a lot of cleaning/organizing done - will continue with that today. Trying to get the house ready to show to a potential buyer. We need to have a major rummage sale!
