116.8 - unchanged even after eating out twice yesterday. But there was no snacking as we were away from the house from 9 am to 8 pm. I had a mushroom ravioli dish for dinner that I haven't had in years and it was just as good as I remembered. They had half portions, which I love. I ate all of it.

Very proud of Justice not having any accidents that whole long day. I wouldn't have been upset if he did.

SIL's tree is up and quite beautiful. She is looking a bit more mobile than she had been. She has been going to an easy exercise class. Apparently she hasn't had a back specialist helping her, just the endocrinologist who works with her for osteoporosis and a pain specialist. Everyone (including her) feels she needs a back specialist so she is trying to find one. She sees her PCP today and hopes she can get a recommendation from her. Interesting that she has an endocrinologist for that. My PCP said the endocrinologist specialists for osteoporosis are hard to get appointments with so she suggested an orthopedist who specializes in osteoporosis. Maybe SIL would have been better off going that route but when she started treatment for it she didn't have any fractures. Now she has suffered multiple ones in her spine.

I retrieved all the packages that I had shipped to SILs yesterday. We have NO specific plans for today which is great! I am taking Diane's lead and making pot roast. I will probably set up my table top Christmas tree and wrap the gifts. There will be a Justice walk as well of course. The snow is melting here so it should be an easier walk for him than it was yesterday where most if it was on icy paths.

Have a turtledove Thursday!

Sounds rather complex. But the results are great. I bet it gets easier with practice.

I have never built a home for some of the reasons you listed. I'd rather have it all in place and work on decorating it to my taste.

50 degrees?!?! They do it at our place down to 55 and I think even that is crazy. 60 without much wind is my limit.

I hope you went to "Lanai Ladies". Sounds like a good way to to meet more people.

I love that you worked with your Dad on his "fantasy". Being able to keep him happy and in the conversation is so good for both of you.

Love those cookies! I think the plaid looks great.

Congrats on moving more stuff out soon.
