It is Bocce day! Before that we may go to the pool or beach depending on weather.

After we are looking at one of our new friend's condos prior to it going on the market Friday. Last year we decided to give it a season to decide if we wanted to stay where we are. We haven't completely come to a conclusion but I would say we are leaning toward staying in our development but potentially getting a place with a better view. The amenities here with the clubhouse, beach club, golf, and restaurants is fantastic- country club living right on site. But sometimes it bugs me that the house doesn't feel totally like my own especially since I am sure a fair amount of the choices in it were made by DH's long-term girlfriend. The place we are looking at is slightly larger in square feet (we want to stay close to our current size), has a lanai which is about the same size (another big deal for me - I didn't want to go smaller), and it overlooks the marina. It also has a fair number of updates which our place needs if we stay here. We shall see...

Not much else on the table except Justice's usual 3 miles. Have a tingling Tuesday!

I know I would be interested in having a waterview. If you want something that is more yours, that you picked out together, that seems fair. Look forward to hearing what you think.

A somewhat uneventful workday. My cold lingers, but I'm mostly okay. The temperature is tolerable and the sun is bright. And there's leftover roast for supper.

I feel like my fat burning switch has finally flipped again. It's interesting how well we can get to know our own systems. When I reduce calories, it feels like my body resists for awhile, and then finally shrugs and says, well, I guess it's time. Once I start burning fat, my appetite decreases too. Must not disrupt this delicate hormonal dance by eating sugar...

I picked Thursday as my return to workout day. I had a meeting after work yesterday, another today, and ill have one tomorrow. Coupled with the still present cold, that's enough for one day.

Interesting comment about flipping the switch. I think I have similar experiences.

Greetings all

It's a nice sunny day which is good because I had to take Poppy to the vet to have her ears looked at. There is some kind of gunk so they cleaned them and I have meds. Poppy whines in the car and at the vet office and behaves like a dufus. Stopped at the store next door and made the mistake of going in as school lets out so the store was full of packs of kids. Where do they get this energy? How can I get some. Anyway, home for a bit of peace and quiet before the evenings entertainment (state of the union) begins.

DD yeah there is some kind of fat burning mode (also fat adding mode) that I wish I understood better. Glad you are in the zone and feeling better.

Liz go Sharks! Hope you won.

I feel like a nap. Wrestling a high energy dog for an hour wears me out.

My DH observing a group of middle schooler boys goofing around at school football game, it's like they're drunk. I know they're not, but that's what it's like. Watching them, I had to agree.

Yeah, where did our energy go? Remember the days when it seemed endless?
