120.6 - DH lost 5 pounds last week on his WW routine, which he is pretty happy about. His goal is 1-2 pounds a week.

I made my old WW chicken Marsala recipe yesterday. DH really liked it. We had it with riced cauliflower and beans, so a low-point option for him. I actually have a lot of old WW recipes including a Greatest Hits cookbook. I like their recipes as they are pretty healthy, tasty, and generally easy to make.

Golf this morning. Hopefully it doesn't rain - supposedly there is a chance of showers early on but you never know around here.

I think I need to replace my old 32 inch TV (located on the lanai). I bought it really cheap 7+ years ago and it seems to be struggling with some apps. I may move up to a 43 inch version but I don't want anything very big out there. I keep the TV on a rolling stand so it can be used in our guest room/office when we have visitors.

Not much else going on here. Have a thirsty Thursday!

Our tribe certainly experiences many different destinations and types of weather. I spent some time on TT yesterday, trying to problem solve again. I'm glad that the site wasn't hacked, and Bonnie wrote that post. Devon's pups have been released from the spam folder. I checked all buttons and tabs and approval is not needed for a TT member to post, but somehow multiple puppies were tagged as spam.

It is supposed to be muggy and 80's today. The yellow pollen is thick on everything on my screened porch. A few more weeks to go before it is worth it to spray everything down and uncover the outdoor furniture. Great news... apparently my most recent ex-husband has remarried! I am praying this really means he's moved on!

Now he can haunt someone else. I hope you are forever free of him now!

Hope this means the end to your worry and his stalking!

206.1 up a tick, but that's par for the course after a leg workout. It was a good one, too! Food was very much on point, too. Just gotta keep on it.

Liz, yay for DH!!! Glad he was feeling good about his weight loss. That is always motivation to keep going.

I finished work on the club newsletter. It was my first time doing it. Not being a wiz at layout and formatting and graphics made it quite the time consuming little project. It is 26 pages. I feel quite accomplished. However, I was up until 1:30 working on the redos my co editor wanted. She is a semi-retired editor/publisher. Working with her has been fun, but she is precise. I've learned somethings and had to bite my tongue on others. She's a wonderful and kind woman, so I roll with it. She knows of what she speaks!

More grooming today. Need to work on taxes. Workout this afternoon.... oh, and of course, the never ending garage purge...

Ocean Diane, nice to see you check in. Glad Chuck has moved on and will now focus on someone new.

Cheers!

Garages and closets tend to refill with too much stuff even when purged periodically. Part of what I like about our condo is not too much space to accumulate stuff in.

So true. It seems like our stuff automatically expands to fill new space.

Yay for Mike! If you have time, could you post the chicken Marsala recipe?

The points (4) on this are from around 2002, so would be different on today's plans:
