66 pounds over a year is an incredible loss!

I need to turn on Aretha once DH is up. I find that it gets harder and harder to find the Christmas music I would call traditional these days. Though White Christmas by Bing Crosby is supposedly the top song, when I ask Alexa for traditional Christmas music it is rarely included. And forget ever hearing Little Drummer Boy.

Merry, merry everyone!

Just lots of prep today. House is spic and span, food is all prepared. Just need to wrap a few last minute things. Yay!

215 on the dot. MY BODY MUST REALLY LIKE IT HERE! But given last December at this time I weighed 281, I gleefully accept my pause at 215!

Greetings all

Christmas Eve already? I am not - ready that is. Started the day with Scrabble. Won two, lost two. Learned there is a thing called the Royal Order of Adjectives. Look it up. After that I had to go for dog food and some cards that I forget yesterday. Just sat down and had three Christmas cookies delivered by a friend last night. Small and three is plenty. Took a bite of another and tossed it. I am preferring my glass of Fairlife.

Yikes Liz freezing cold! No fun. Can't get up the energy for that kind of cold. Stay inside.

DD thats more like it. A day where you don't have to go out. My kind of day. Hoping DS gets in safely and the ice storm abates. Snow is one thing. Ice is its own thing.

I need to get cooking. Gotta do the pate. Found out one of my scrabble friends likes it so I will make more next week. Dogs will be allocated one chicken liver. They also get yak chews,

Great pajamas CC. Perfect attire for jammie day.

We are supposed to get a boatload of rain. Driving down the 101 this morning it was cloudy on one side and sunny on the other. The ocean is really fierce and two groups of people got washed into the sea at two different beaches yesterday. They got out. Danged lucky. Those events usually end badly.

Crab legs Paula. Enjoy. Glad the new church service was nice. I heard an NPR program today where they were playing weird Christmas music - like really sad Christmas songs. Interesting but peculiar. I will listen to my favorite which is Aretha Franklin singing Joy to the World.

Cheers all. Diane S

Merry Christmas Eve!

141.5, down a bit but as low as I was about a week ago when I was probably too dehydrated!

Beautiful Christmas Eve day service at our new church today. They opened up with an awesome rendition of Little Drummer Boy! Brought tears to my eyes! I wish the kids would have joined us but no such luck!

We will frost cookies either today or tomorrow. Crab legs, Mom's homemade Mac and Cheese and green bean casserole for dinner with the chocolate mint cheesecake for dessert. We will end the evening by exchanging gifts and perhaps playing some games! Life is good!

Hoping all of you are enjoying time with friends and family!

Sweet way to remember your Mom. Picture in your Christmas jammies?

Merry Christmas Eve!

Polar plunge! Sounds like a heart attack waiting to happen.

Another dry, warm sunny day on tap. My folks are looking at the cameras at their house seeing all the snow on the ground and gray skies and I think are happy they are here.

Weight is still 183. Seems my body likes being here. My dad commented, you aren't going to lose any more are you? I wouldn't mind another 10, but if this is where I stay, I'm fine with that too.

We don't do anything special for Christmas Eve. My mom used to buy me new jammies to open and wear on Christmas Eve night. I bought myself new ones this year. Flannel with Christmas dogs on them.

Not sure what we're doing today other than a dog walk.

Take care all!

Water view looked awesome on Facebook. I avoided cold weather yesterday, I only left the house to get my bone density scan and to venture out into the garage to get a diet coke. I hope you finally warmed up!

A few tasks to tackle this morning, then church this afternoon, followed by 7 for dinner. Christmas day, ill pack up food, and we'll travel to my parent's house.

DS wasn't able to arrive last night. There was freezing rain in Madison. Not good for driving. He should be here this afternoon.

Happy Christmas Eve everyone!
