Nice warm and breezy day. Picked banana peppers, several fingerling zucchini and super baby Romain lettuce for a salad today. Very yummy. Fall crop radishes are not quite ready. It is truly about the end of the garden save waiting on winter squashes and sweet potatoes which won't be ready to take up until just before the first good frost. Oh, and okra-Okra everywhere...

How can something this pretty....

.....Please, make it stop!

Just a quick check in before leaving this evening.

Weight is stable. I am going to do my level best to eat intuitively while away and not Piggy It Up just because I'm at the nationals. There is a part of me that so wants to just let go and eat like a 20 year old athlete who knows nothing about nutrition. There is another part of me that wants to eat like a normal, naturally thin, lean middle aged adult male with athleticism pulsing through his blood, body and psyche. (Now, I just reread this and was going to delete "normal", but decided to leave it in because that's what really went through my head. I'm not sure I like being "not normal" and thinking middle aged male model is normal. Hmmmmm..... )

Having a cup of coffee to get me jump started for the evening. Need to pack and be out of here by about 7:30, quarter to eight.

Lots going on here - changes in partnerships, people healing, lots of travel, worries over loved ones and loss of loved ones, and... And through it all, we support one another. It's wonderful to be a member of this tribe.

Hope to pop in on and off the rest of the week. If not, "see" you next week.
