The problem with dog shows is I take the RV and once I'm parked, I'm parked for the weekend. I never travel with a tow vehicle. So, while the weather will be lovely, I'll be camped out on a middle school football field albeit surrounded by wooded hills within two miles of the Pacific coast.

Yay to DC doing well!

Closet shopping is the best! Enjoy Carmel-by-Sea. I'm sure it is beautiful there.

On my gosh, what a beautiful day. I could just sit outside taking in deep breaths of the intoxicating loamy green scent wafting through the yard for hours. No rain for the next few days, and a heat wave is coming. We will probably turn on the AC for the first time this season.

Last night I was craving the best hamburger in our metro area, so off to St. Paul. They use brisket, chuck and new York strip, ground in house. Pricey, but oh so good. I ate half in the restaurant, and just had a quarter of the burger here at home for brunch.

Today running some shopping errands. Afterwards, I hope to work more on my deck pillow sewing.

Liz, I'd say your DD made a good decision about bringing in the pros for getting things out of her inherited house. Does she not live in the area? I would think a property on the Cape would be precious, no matter the condition. But maybe it is a moneypit.

Off to run errands!

Thalassic.... yet another new one for me.... of or relating to the sea.

I had an extremely intense training session yesterday evening. I was sure I would either be the same or slightly up on the scale this morning, but I was down another pound. So....

OFFICIALLY DOWN 40 POUNDS since starting the meds. Makes me quite happy.

1 pound to my next mini goal. I have to think about a next goal. All I can really think of at the moment is getting to under 200, but that's too far away still. Need something a little closer and easier to achieve.... I tend to make my weight goals about memorable photos or events in my life that for some reason or other have a weight attached to them.

I think I have gotten to the point of shelf life build up in my body. I don't seem to notice a wane in the med's effectiveness as shot day approaches. I've been pretty steady that past few weeks. Not to say I don't have "hungry" days, but I've always had "hungry" days. I think that's just a normal ebb and flow of appetite and satiety.

Did a Costco run last night. They had a huge stack of the Fairlife protein drinks I like so I bought two cases, which lasts me about a month. I was delighted to find it yesterday. The last few times I've been to Costco, it has not been in stock.

I'm off to Carmel-By-The-Sea for 3 days of shows. I'm leaving behind 100+ degree weather for forecasted highs of 63 and 64 degrees. HEAVEN! I'll need a sweater in the evenings! Whoo hoo!

I am thinking about getting a mini portable car fridge for my road trip to Wisconsin and North Dakota. I realized last night I have to take my meds with me. (I could just use a regular cooler I suppose, but that means buying ice along the way.) Does anyone have any experience or recommendations?

Another NSV: I couple of years ago I got a really good deal on some suits, but when they arrived they were a tad snug. Weight went up from there. Took them out of the closet and the suit coats fit beautifully. No alterations needed. YAY for closet shopping! Deciding what to do with the suits I bought last September - take in or donate? Hmmmm.....

Time to get moving!
