Greetings all

It's cooled off here. Thats more like it! It should be illegal to be too hot. Wearing my usual long sleeved tee shirts. I don't do the short sleeved ones often because I have "lunch lady arms". You all know what that means.

Scrabble this morning. I beat the Shark right off the bat but then lost the next two games. Oh well. I can only beat the Shark if I have exceptionally good luck on draws which I did today. Then I got my weekly cheeseburger and went to the bank, art supply store, and finally the studio. Did some glazing and clean up of dry items. All these errands are a big day for me but I feel pretty good and not like a wreck. More evidence that minimal exercise might actually be a good idea.

Ocean D glad you made it home safely with the rough tide. No taking chances with the ocean or tides - Mother Nature is totally in charge. Good that you have someone know your plans. People get lost in the woods all the time around here with failure to share plans. Not cool. All that paddling sounds sublime and we are glad that you get to do it and that shoulder is being good.

Paula that dinner sounds great. I forget to do lettuce cups but it's a super idea. Lettuce by itself is worthless but with some meat items and sauce it's super. Might be time to make BLT's with no bread.

Costco chicken tonight after same last night. We will eat it every night until we are sick of it at which time the dogs get a bonanza. They also get the skin.

Still watching "Tehran". It's really intriguing. Hard to stop.

Liz onward on the house. Yep prices are ridiculous. My first house cost $40,000 and no it was not a trailer.

Scrabble friend gave me a bunch of old towels that she needed rid of. Took them to the pet rescue and they were thrilled. The towels really seemed in good shape. Good thing DH did not see them or he would have tried to keep them.

CC looks like Kirby is having a blast at the lake. I bet he is swimming like a fool by the end of the summer.

Cheers. Diane S

I have somewhat droopy upper arms with vertical wrinkles. Not a good look but when it is hot I wear no sleeve shirts. I don't care about my arms showing anymore.

My first house cost $50K and was the cutest little cape ever.

NSV!!! Okay, I'm so happy! I took a deep breath and ordered pants that were 4 inches smaller in the waist than what I had bought previously. OMG!!! THEY FIT COMFORTABLY!

I am having a Terrific Tirzepatide Tuesday!

Yeehaw!!

4 inches! Now, that's significant progress . Moving on over to the "buff" side of of the clothing aisle is super satisfying. Once again... well done and carry on.

Best feeling! Smaller sizes tell the true tale!

Congratulations! Yay to well-fitting, much smaller pants!

Awesome NSV!

There are fewer events in life more joyful than fitting into "skinnier" clothes!

I swear ... one of my most effective relaxation drills is playing dress up in my head. Works especially well when I'm too revved up to fall asleep.
