You have certainly had a full trip in San Diego. Makes me want to go there (I was only there once about 40 years ago for a conference).

Love my Dyson, which is an awesome vacuum. And I also love my Roomba. They're good for different things.
I love closing the door to my white-carpeted bedroom and letting the Roomba do its thing.

I'm with you on 90 minute programs. 45-60 minutes is my limit in general. DS seems to like the longer programs though. Maybe it is an age thing? We don't have as much time left to waste.

Happy July 4th! I hope you all have good weather today for whatever you are doing.
DD and her fiancé arrived late last night after we had already gone to bed. Prior to that we had a nice visit with DH's family at dinner with the meal cooked on the new fancy Weber grill they bought for the house with DH's credit card. I ate what I felt like with no guilt - most of a hot dog and some potato salad.
Today we are having a cookout with my family. The plan is a burger without a bun and salad.
Most of the major house stuff is done other than staging, fixing some exterior paint on the house, removing more of DS's items to the storage unit, and taking difficult to throw away items like electronics to the proper waste facility. Hopefully DD's fiancé will be here long enough that we can get the 2 latter items done with his pickup truck. My realtor friend is coming Monday to walk through and let me know if anything else needs to be done before we put it on the market in about 11 days or so.
Today is injection day, meaning tomorrow is weigh-in day. No clue what that will bring. I feel I have mostly eaten what I wanted but not in great quantity.
Have an idiomorphic Independence Day!

Another sunny day here in San Diego! Today we took the light rail in again to the touristy sites near the harbor. We went on a 2 hour cruise of the south and north harbor. Lots of Marine and Navy helicopters flying, making DH a happy guy. It was very lovely on the water and I learned a few things about San Diego. We had a quick lunch, where DH agreed to split a hamburger with me, and that worked a lot better than yesterday's chicken. I could tell DH was longing to see the aircraft carrier museum in the harbor, so I proposed he tour that while I shopped in Seaport Village. We both were happy. DH went on a tour guided by a docent who was a sailor on the Midway before it was decommissioned, so that sounds pretty cool.
Tonight we're meeting our niece and her husband at a marina park she really likes to eat pizza, drink wine, and watch the sunset. Tomorrow back to rainy Minnesota, and the day after, back to my parent's house so DH can change the brakes on my Dad's truck. Then, in not too many days, we'll be back in the airport, heading for Boston.
Like Liz, I tend to be more plugged up (which I, too, appreciate, since like Liz, I tend to the looser side of things). That said, I find that once per month usually with the first or second injection of an increased dosage, I may have a day cramping and diarrhea. Dairy is never a good thing to eat with a bad gut, IME. Guts can be really sensitive to lactose and want it OUT ASAP!
