Nice day with DD and SIL yesterday. Their flight was a very fast 2.5 hours and they didn't check luggage so we were back at the house by 9 am. We spent a whole lot of time trying to display the wedding pictures on the TV but couldn't because they were in Google photo, not iPhoto. We finally just looked at them on the laptop when we got back from dinner last night. Very emotional viewing them. So many good shots (1000 pictures!). In the middle of the day we took out a pontoon boat and docked for lunch, then beached it on a little island to swim. Much nicer riding on it vs the little power boats. DH did have some problems docking it but hopefully with practice will get better.
Today the plan is lunch at an outdoor Tiki place, outdoor music this afternoon, then steaks back at our house. Now that it is dark at grilling time the nasty biting no seeums are a problem so I will have to remind DH to put on bug spray before he grills.
But before that is a walk, then water aerobics while the younger folks sleep in. Have a satisfying Saturday!

The medication is supposed to be stable for a year in an unopened vial. Once opened, it is good for a month. Some pharmacies label it in confusing ways but that is what I have found googling it and reading FB groups - my vials say 1 year. I heard that the patent for semaglutide runs out in 2027, so at least there is some hope for the future. The patent is much further out for tirzepatide unfortunately.

So are you done when you leave for KY next time? Good luck getting it all accomplished. Brings back recent memories...

The month we were in Arizona the dryness of the air made me constantly thirsty and my skin needed lotion multiple times a day. I even needed a saline nasal spray because of it.
I hate really large cars - you can't see past them and like this one they take up way too much space. How rude that they didn't even check to see if they were too close on your side.

152.1. First weigh in it was 152.6, but after some good bathroom time, it dropped (even with breakfast on board). We'll see tomorrow what number holds more true.
Chiily day here, but not at chilly as CC, eeeegads! 29 degrees in AZ! A CD of mine matured. It was meant to go toward a FL property, but now that we are staying put in WI, I just put in back into another 10 month CD. Will come in handy for a tummy tuck come Fall!
DS3 will be home soon. Made him his favorite meatballs with mushroom gravy over rice for dinner ! I like treating them with their favorites when they visit!
No plans for the weekend. DH is back to work tonight, working 12 hour night shifts through Monday.

How interesting that they've offered to let you buy a year's worth of tirz in advance. Does it last that long? I know the semaglutide seems to have a fairly short shelf life. I met with my PA at Henry Meds recently and they didn't say anything about that possibility. Of course, I'm on sema (but I think that is also coming off the shortage list?)...and who knows, it may be illegal to send that mu*****A. We can't even get tirz thru Henry Meds here. I did ask him about oral semaglutide for maintenance, and he thought it would be quite effective, but that's not available in CA either at this point...
UPDATE: I called Henry Meds, and they said semaglutide has not yet officially been taken off the shortage list but that when it does, they will likely offer the same deal of a bulk purchase for existing customers..
