Mine is Emerge Weight Loss. (My mind was running through Em words, embrace, employ, empower...). I'm not sure they can prescribe Tirzepatide in CA. Might just be Orderly and Mochi? Guessing at that though!

I was trying to remember where else I had heard the name Bug. Our neighbor here in Michigan is from Birmingham, Alabama and she invites her Book Club ladies up every year. One year they had a local author come and speak to the group and invited me. We had all read the book (terrible if you ask me), and after we had dinner with all sorts of wonderful southern recipes. Where has cheesy grits been all my life? Anyway, one of the women goes by the name Bug. she's in her 60s and doesn't quite remember where it came from, but if you use her real name, nobody knows who you're talking about!

Kinda of a lazy day here. I have been working on getting matted pictures ready for my upcoming art show.

DC invited a new friend over to dinner tonight and then they will go to a drag show. DH works until 5:30.

Injection day tomorrow!

Good luck with the art show!

greetings all

The sun is out early today! It's going to be fairly warm. Like 70. LOL

Liz I feel your pain. Please just don't overdo it. I wish I had a magic bullet for sleep. Lots of people here use CBD oil which does not work for me. And yeah one slice of pizza is nothing. We have a new pizza place in town that DB ordered from and they can make any pizza with a cauliflower crust and they deliver fast! A new entry in my "how to not cook" log book. Also delivered a salad.

I will do some studio time today. Need to make new stuff. Also catch up on gossip.

CC congratulations on sleeping to a reasonable hour. Thank you Kirby. Your comments are wise. And glad you told parents about your med. No big deal which secrets can become at times.

Tomorrow we go to an early July 4 event. These are the people that start cleaning up about an hour after you get there and sho you out the door. Fine with me. I have been asked to bring baked beans. Kind of annoys me but I will do it. After a search of local delis with no results I bought canned beans and some local bbq sauce and will do the totally lazy cheat method.

Peps when you said Podunk I guessed it was Gridley. Never been to those shows but heard they are nice. But hot - geez. Glad puppy ladybug is traveling well.

Last night we had fish that DH brought home from Marina. Yikes, it was fried fish with garlic in it! Not good. Whose idea was that? Even the dogs would not eat it. They also would not eat the boutique hand made dog food that my brother brought for his dog. Not a bite.

Cheers. Diane S

I love visiting California, because I can be a morning person! After breakfast we went to the pool. Suddenly I heard a voice yelling, Uncle Pat! It was a stunning moment of nostalgia, I looked st DH and said, when was the last time you heard a niece's voice, calling for you across the pool? DH was having the same reaction. BIL has 5 daughters, and 4 of them are here right now. Feeling blessed to have this time with them.

The weather is beautiful, and the sun felt incredible after this rainy spring/summer in Minnesota. In a little while we will head over to our oldest niece's house for her baby shower. Its a big family party with a hog roast executed by her husband. Apparently the pig went into the pit he prepared before dawn, and will be pulled out later this afternoon.

I'm still a long ways away from Northern California, but it's fun to know I'm on the same coast as Peps and Diane S. (And Lizanne, also in Northern California?)

Sounds like some great family time - a bonus with the sun too!

Yes, Lizanne lives only about 30 minutes from me. Diane S on the other hand, about 4.5-5 hours north along the Pacific coast. The area in which Diane S lives is really breathtaking! Very much like coastal Maine, but with different trees!

Yes, Bay Area, quite near Peps but pretty far from Diane who's much farther north. I think you are in San Diego? My husband's uncle and aunt live in La Jolla and our DD went to UCSD, so we have spent a fair amount of time there--it's beautiful!
