Dear Bonnie150, thank you for your glyphs! I understand your message and so appreciate you making the effort to let us know you are resting and recovering. My body parts are crossed and I am lifting up my prayers, mojo, positivity for a thorough healing of your body! HUGS!!!!!
I absolutely MUST change the batteries in my scale today! I got readings from 241.2 all the way up to 247.4 stepping on the scale 4 different times. The first was the 241 # and I just didn't think that could be right. I ate movie popcorn last night so a 2 lb loss made no sense. Grabbed Liza jumped on the scale with her to reset it. Then got on three more times to three different weights. Geez I hate that!
We did not see Bohemian Rhapsody. We did not see Star is Born. No, we saw Fantastic Beasts, The Crimes of Grindenwald. I absolutely love JK Rowling's wizarding world fiction and this movie was no disappointment. Of course, one has to enjoy this type of fantasy story. Tonight we will see another movie. Ron will decide which we see tonight. My guess is that it will be either BR or Star. I am not a huge Queen fan, but am intrigued by the biographical aspect. I love Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper both, so that would probably be my choice. However, I'm such a Garland nut job, I don't know if I will be making comparisons.
Well, I have a full week off for Thanksgiving. School was cancelled again today. We are not allowed to run the heating and cooling systems due to air quality, but according to OSHA we are not supposed to work without air circulation. The air quality index shows we are improving and our rating at 9:00 am today was 166, which is still in the unhealthy range. That's better than the very unhealthy range we have been in the past several days. The wind shifted about 10 minutes ago and the air is getting smokier and stinkier. My nose is clogged and dry and I have mung in my bronchia. It'll take a couple of hours to clear up, but it will.
Shel, I loved both articles. The low carb, low refined carb and added sugar article makes a great deal of sense to me. It is exactly how I see my own body react to that type of refined food. What amazes me, too, is the improvement of my mood when those foods are greatly lessened in my diet. The article about being thankful is fantastic. I'm sharing it on FB. I doubt many will take the time to read it, but it sure does help put things in perspective.
With my new found free time today I am going to get in an extra workout at the gym, pick up those batteries, pick up some protein powder at GNC, get to the bank, maybe work on a dog of my own, and waste some time doing nothing. Later I have a dental cleaning and after that a session with my shrink. A full day, yes, but one filled with the gift of time.
Good Morning All - stunning sunshine before we have thunderstorms tonight. DH has left for work and Im cooking the roast veg for the salad. Hoping to have a quieter day as I slept really badly. We have 9 for dinner tonight so onwards we go. Should be a nice night
Bonnie :) Wonderful to hear from you - sleep and heal x
Waving to everyone today as I best get moving - have a ton of things to get done both for work and around here before everyone arrives tonight
:)

Greetings All
151.5 today. No clue why. Maybe because I didn't eat too much. But I did some late night peanut eating. I must be part elephant.
Gallery duty all day long. usually its a half day. Enough people to not be totally boring but I did walk in circles and do some squats. Late in the day an odd guy came in and talked and made me kind of uncomfortable. Said he was burned out in Paradise and showed me his drivers license. I stayed near the phone as he said stuff like he would protect me if robber came in. But in the end, he bought a card and left. I think he was just lonely. He also told me he wanted women for president for the next 500 years.
YAY Bonnie, thanks for the message. Rest and heal.
And DH finally got a call to schedule his scan for tomorrow. Someone must have cancelled. It was ordered a month ago.
Tomorrow is scrabble day plus shop for what I have to do for Thanksgiving which is not much. Hope everybody has a good one.
Well not much else. Time to cook a steak. Diane S
