So sorry your friend is suffering. We have a friend who has gone through similar issues over the last few years and has had various diagnoses including a hip replacement which seemed to help at first but then the weakness/pain recurred. Getting old is not for the faint of heart.
And yes, lizards will be fairly frozen this morning.

I know nothing about induction stoves. I don't cook enough to make it worthwhile investing in one. But good timing for you! Time to cook comfort food for the cold days coming up.

I'd say you are solidly under 200 now!
Your soreness should subside pretty soon now I bet. I think most of my tenderness had subsided at your point and I was just dealing with some bruising along my jaws.

DSD's bernadoodle was overexcited with everyone until she turned about 3. One thing that helped her was learning some self-calming techniques like putting a shoe or a stuffed animal in her mouth. Don't know why that works but it does.
I hope the meeting with the architect was productive. Can't wait to here about the stretchy suit ;)

Falling frozen iguanas are indeed a risk for this week!

Greetings All
Yet another sunny day here. Almost makes me feel guilty in view of the deep freeze in much of the nation. Watching all the film of Minneapolis these days reminds me of living in Omaha - big piles of snow in parking lots, visible breath and thick bulky coats all around. No thanks but bravo to the souls who brave it.
Slow day even by my standards. I went to the studio and glazed and picked up newly finished things. Then I had to run stuff to the accountant. That is about it. I need to get up to the gallery but maybe tomorrow. The host of our scrabble group is in the hospital. She had some significant leg pain last week, had a cyst drained, but eventually came down with more pain and ended up in the ER. They can't figure out what is wrong so are sending her to a PT hospital. So this is awful for her as she values independence plus no one knows if physical therapy will hel*****t. She pretty much can't walk. So I will find out where they put her and go see. Yuck. Aging.
CC I do hope the range of motion improves. I think I have mentioned that years ago I did something to one shoulder and after about 6 months of dinking around I went to the chiropractor and it did help. I so hear you on getting stuff from the back seat - I pretty much can't do it. Agree with Peps that a trainer is a good idea (said she who does not use one) but it would be nice to walk Kirby without injury. Good on you for helping neighbor. She likely just wanted company.
Well Paula do you and Liz have to worry about dodging the iguanas again? Hope it is not that cold. Water exercise in a storm, no thanks. Nice that you have your own dome of warmth. I did not cook the farro today as planned but will do it tomorrow. Results to be determined. I had leftover Mexican food for breakfast!! Yum.
Hug Justice Liz.
Peps my weight ESP was right. Enjoy the return to work outs. I will do the gym tomorrow. Glad you are healing and that you are pleased with results.
Not much else. I am trying hard to keep my laundry rat hole from becoming a total mess. Must attack the closet.

Welcome back to FL Liz! Sorry the weather is going to be cold for the next week plus!
Today was the last day of water aerobics for a bit due to cold weather moving in. The front literally moved in while I was doing the class this morning. The sky got very grey, the winds picked up and there were even a few sprinkles. Thankfully no lightning, I would have been outta there lickity split! DH and I took a walk this afternoon, the sun came back out for a little while.
New induction range was delivered today! Yay! I'm looking forward to the more precise control the burners have and the fun features the oven has!

I knew that scale wasn't going to stay above 200!
Yay for sun, even if the temps are a *****illy.
I needed to sleep on my back for quite sometime after my PS and still find it the most comfortable position some of the time!
Hope your return to regular exercise goes well! I know you miss it!

Nice that your good heartedness in helping your neighbor with her Christmas decorations was rewarded with a fairly easy job and a yummy lunch!
I bet the training for Kirby will be great. Especially if a little sibling is in the cards.
Finny how a little threat to go elsewhere lit a fire under the architect's butt. Hope you can plans soon!
