118.4

Day 3 with the sisters. We spent another day at the beach club yesterday but are skipping it today. We plan to eat lunch at a tiki bar on the water then listen to music outdoors at another bar nearby. Dinner will be steaks grilled at home. The sisters are very basic in what they will eat: steak, burgers, chicken fingers, grilled cheese, salad. Sauces always on the side. They eat pizza with just cheese and no sauce. Kind of like a cracker with cheese melted on top IMO.

I need to get my act in gear to get flowers for the funeral and make some appointments. Always something on a to do list. You probably saw that I posted my BIL's obituary on FB. I hesitated until I saw that DD had done so because their family sometimes makes a big deal over privacy. But I knew there were people I wasn't going to call who would want to know and it was the best way to inform them. In fact I got a call from an old family friend last night who found out because of the post.

My new living room chairs arrive today so we must move the leather chairs out of the room. We are hoping friends will take them. Water aerobics in 2 hours - hopefully it will warm up a lot by then.

Have a successful Saturday!

Good that there was no damage. After feeling that quake in Napa and seeing the floor rolling I was amazed at how well most structures survived it.

Lucky you to have a day to just do your own thing. I am a bit envious.

Quick iPad check in after gallery day. Actually had some sales. I spent time straightening all the framed art which was wonky from the earthquake. No other damage though

bonnie must have coffee!,,, I hea****er in a hot pot and pour it through a coffee cone and filter. Pretty basic but I get what I want. Dh does not drink coffee so I don't make a whole pot. Hope you find a new and worthy method,

someond brought butter cookies to the gallery and I ate them sugar is a crime of opportunity

DH brought home Mexican food from lunch so that was dinner.pot roast tomorrow.

dd I vote boots, be warm and enjoy

more tomorrow

145.9. Same. Took my 1/2 dose shot yesterday morning. Seems to be working well. I'll reduce my dose once I get to using my new vial!

Today was a pajama day! Loved it! Still quite cold here and no reason I needed to leave the comfort of my house, so why bother changing? I'll take a jacuzzi bath before bed to get clean and warm up! DH is working 12 hour nights starting today, so it will just be the puppies and me!

Leftovers for lunch (2 1/2 onion rings from our Red Robin outing the other day) along with part of a Fairlife shake which I will complete later tonight. DH ate my leftover burger! Costco had some premade chicken Italian meatballs, so I made those with a red sauce and angel hair pasta for dinner. Pasta dishes just don't do much for me these days! My go to seems to be cottage cheese. Filling and not sweet! No matter what it is, I'm done after a handful of bites!

Made another Etsy sale. I think that is 2 this month! Lol! Better than zero! I really need to get on my Search Engine Optimization! A friend wants to buy some of my cards to give as Christmas gifts! That will be one more sale for the month!

The treadmill is calling my name! I should start heeding that beckoning! Perhaps I will hop on for a bit tonight! Nothing better to do!

Hair done today then off to a gallery show opening with my neighbor. Kirby is displeased to be left alone much of the day! Had to pause as he just threw up on the carpet. Are all dogs this yakky or just my dogs??

My bff just sent me my birthday present early. It was a Cameo! Where a famous person sends you a personal message. Has anyone seen the show, Miranda from the UK? Hilariously silly show about an awkward woman navigating through life and love. So funny and heartwarming and all written by Miranda Hart and she plays herself Miranda. So one of my all-time favorite comfort shows and also beloved by my bff, my UK bff, my CA artist bff and her mother and daughter, and I found out my old boss loves her as well and can quote season and show numbers when quoting it! So loads of oohs and ahs over my personalized birthday video wish from Miranda which I widely showed off. Such a great idea for someone who has everything and needs nothing! Here it is.

I should get ready to scoot to the opening. Hope everyone is happy and healthy! And look up the show Miranda if you're in the mood for "Such Fun"!

I like my keurig because I'm the only coffee drinker in the house most if the time. I know the purist's out there really like the big contraptions that go from grinding the whole beans to putting on the fancy foam with everything in between, but you are right they take up a lot of counter real estate!
