Weight 118.8. We will be home in Florida by the end of the day. Our flight doesn't leave Providence until 6:30 pm though so it will be a late night. Luckily the airport on the other end is only 10 minutes from home. We will need to take a taxi/uber. We could be home by 10:30 but that may be optimistic.

The car is on the trickle charger. I put everything I read about to repel rodents throughout the car. I have those plug in noise emitting things and a fake snake (very creepy) under the car. In the engine compartment and everywhere else I put peppermint balls made specifically for this purpose, mothballs, and dryer sheets. My car is going to need to be fully aired out after the winter. Hopefully the rodents don't like it either.

This morning we need to wash the sheets and towels and do some housecleaning. Not much in that regard as it is mostly cleaner than when we came here. It feels like a relatively organized departure. I just hope there are no delays in travel. The weather is supposed to be fine for traveling on both ends so at least that isn't a factor.

Have a moving Monday!

Now that would scare the little guys away!

Even if you had a nice live one, it probably wouldn't be moving around much in November. Brrrr.

I bought the painting. I think it will go in my folk's room as there is a large expanse of blank wall in there and this painting with the frame is 44" square. It breaks my rule of no red rock paintings, but the colors are perfect for in there (reds, golds, grays). My friend Cathy is an expert picture hanger and comes complete with supplies, so will come hang it for me.

The gopher guy is coming this morning. I have new holes for him to look at. And the garage guy will be here this afternoon to replace and fix seals around the garage.

I'm feeling the need to organize something, so will try to seize on that feeling today.

It's been a munchy week. I need to dial that back. I've been more open to food since I switched back to the pharmacy that covers AZ. Maybe it's my imagination, but it felt like the other stuff worked better. Other possibilities are I'm hormonal or being my 5th shot of 12.5mg, the early new dose efficacy has worn off.

Ooh, and I got Wordle in 2 today! Anyway, that's all I know. Take care!

Many administrative BS things at work. But do I care? Nope. Has little to do with me, as my feelings of detachment increase with each passing day. My energy is best devoted to the students, and helping my colleagues when I can.

Some packing to complete, and then I should be ready to go. Yippee! I have to work a half day on Wednesday, then catch a plane at 2:40 pm, and Houston by 6pm.

Hope your travel day goes well Liz, and everything is as you left it at home.

Weight exactly the same, 156.8

Liz, oh my goodness what you did to not get critters in your car again! I really did laugh out loud at CC's snake comment!

Dog in grooming day. Ben used to say we were taking them to the dog parlor. At least now they smell like fake strawberries instead of dog!

A few errands run and a little nap! DH was sleeping since he has to work tonight so the bed was nice and toasty! Built in bed warmer!

Checking out the new church again tonight. They are having a meeting for leaders of Bible study groups. Since I'm interested in taking that training, my friend invited me the leaders meeting. Dinner provided, whatever that might be!

DS2 coming home tomorrow to get his coats. It got cold fast and all of his coats are still here!

Planning on driving the 1.5 hours to DS3's college town on Thursday to take him out for dinner.

When our DS was at Stout, it was about 1.25 hour drive from our house. I loved being able to go visit him for dinner, or lunch on the weekend. Now Madison is about 5 hours. Enjoy your dinner with him!
