Ohhh, we do not have any plans yet for summer. We aren't feeling the pressure to cram all our traveling into summer break, and are hoping to stay home more and enjoy a Minnesota summer too. It would be such a treat to meet up with you!

I will keep you posted.

I hope we can order up some perfect weather for you! January has been a bit nippy!

Greetings all

It's another sunny day here and quite calm. Good thing because we made our voyage to the beach to meet up with Poppy's brother and another dog plus owners. This beach is kind of out of the way and fairly easy access. What I did not count on is that crab season is starting and fishing boats go out from the pier here so there were piles of cab traps in the parking lot plus trucks and people moving them. But the beach was fun. I let Poppy run loose and she was mostly pretty good except for one attempted escape through the parking lot. But all is well and she had a great time running around. They have redone the beach access as it is for boat launching but it's fine. Nice pavers. But boy am I worn out. Big day for me. Then some butthead parked so close to the driver side neither one of us could get in. I had to go in the passenger side and climb over the consule. Good thing our electric car has no transmission hump. It was the most athletic thing I have done in years.

Great weekend Peps! BIS owner is a BFD. Enjoy the wins! Love hearing it.

DD sympathies for the cold. Glad you have the Florida trip booked. And I hear you on the husband dinner shopping. My DH brought home two cans of Beeferoni! Seriously? But on some cold rainy night it will be appealing. We are fortunate that there are a couple of hippy dippy grocery stores that have delis. Last night it was chicken tenders. Tonights dinner is to be determined but I am not going out again. Hmmm beeferoni????

Liz those kids sound like fun. Teenage energy is fun. And a good Reuben is to die for. Best ever if done right. But Justice has snuggle rights!

Bonnie what cool art supplies!! I don't know some of them but they all sound great. Score!! What are you going to make? I am intrigued by the air brush. Thats a seriously artsy thing.

Aloha Paula.

Cheers all. Diane S

Beeferoni? I'll take my chances with the frozen pizza.

"BIS owner is a BFD."

Cleverest thing I've read all day. ;=]

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to get in the drivers seat at all: What jerks some people are!

Fun day in Kihei today. Yummy fish taco for lunch and shave ice for dessert! Wore one of my new Tommy Bahama outfits! Felt very vacationy.

Y'all I have sagging knees! Skin is sagging all over but for the most part is hidden by clothes. But dang it all, my knees are sagging! I also have no butt. The skirt I'm wearing today is an XXS while the top is a medium! Narrow hips and no butt! I'll be happy to get a tummy tuck (probably next Fall). Not sure if I will do the thigh lift. I didn't need the face lift 8 years ago but it certainly would help now. I'll give it all time to see where I even out and start hitting the home gym to firm up my muscles!

Why can't we just be happy with our bodies? My DH told me to stop being so critical with myself!

Sorry to those of you having cold weather. I don't mean to be taunting you all!

We're happy for you!! (Warm weather, not saggy knees). We all will have our day in the sun in due time.

My knees are so saggy, I don't wear shorts or knee length dresses. Good thing I love a fit and flair midi length. Remember the picture CC posted wondering if her dress was too short. She looked so cute! Not a look I can pull off.

Hard advice to follow, but your DH is right! You are looking great. We've seen the pictures. :)

Thank you!
