118.6 I think, this morning was so long ago!

Meant to go to water aerobics today but got busy doing business readying activities and before I knew it the class had already started and I didn't want to join in late.

I officially have a vendor spot, sign a 6 month contract on Saturday. Start date is March 1st but I can start setting up the booth anytime after Saturday.

Went to Lanai ladies happy hour tonight and it was fun!

Leftover enchiladas for dinner!

Tomorrow is a super busy day, water aerobics at nine, cut and color at 11:00 and a couples massage at 1:45. I should have Bible study at 10 too but won't be able to fit it in!

198.7 - Well bust my buttons! I can't even remember the last time I dropped below 199.something.

It was cold yesterday. We had snow on the mountain. Very pretty, but for a CA with less padding than I used to have.... BRRRRR.... A little warmer today. Got up to the low 50s and only occasional showers. Tomorrow another storm is supposed to come through with another couple inches of rain.

It's Ash Wednesday, so that meant that last night was pancakes for dinner. YUCK! But it's a tradition that Ron loves. Fat Tuesday, don't you know! So, I made pancakes with scrambled eggs and some low fat, some type of paleo high protein chicken/basil sausages.

I am back to "body parting" out my workouts this week. Chest and back MWF, legs TTh. Felt good to do a full leg workout yesterday. I'll do a push pull tonight after my dog club meeting.

Not much else going on here today.

No weight - in Fort Lauderdale

We had a nice late afternoon and evening with DH's DD and DIL. We ate at a cool rooftop restaurant. Though my meal was extremely tasty it wasn't even remotely healthy. A bit of a disappointment. Shrimp and scallop pesto pasta had 2 small shrimp and 2 tiny scallops with ton of pasta. I usually eat stuff like that by filling up on the seafood then eating a little bit of the pasta. Too much pasta was consumed to make up for the missing protein. And of course that was after munching cookies in our room because I needed a snack and there wasn't anything healthy available. Must go back to my previous days of bringing my own snacks.

We knew that DH's son was going to start to look at new job postings in June after he completes 2 years in Poland, but apparently they have definitely decided to return to Fort Lauderdale so will only look at postings there and DIL is looking at homes to buy during the upcoming week. Wow! Big news, and good to hear. They have had marvelous travel experiences in Europe, but didn't love Poland and are ready to get back to life and starting to have children. Yay!

We are leaving here within a few hours to pick up Justice and do our walk with him at home. At least I don't have to worry about him there as he immediately recognized the people working there and was all wiggly and giving them kisses. It is a daycare/boarding place but is very clean, has lots of outdoor space and a stable staff so he does well there.

Have a winsome Wednesday!

I haven't made that hamburger cabbage dish for a long time. I don't think DH has ever had it so should try it on him. He likes the stuff in it.

Greetings all

Lazing about here as the weather clears up. I woke up to rain and hail and there was thunder and lightning. Some of the hail accumulated for awhile and allegedly there were a number of car wrecks. Makes me chuckle because this bit of hail is nothing like a good old midwestern snow and ice storm where there is nothing but a few road ruts in the deep snow and they close the gates to I-80. But it is lighter to the west so I will venture out in a bit. The gallery is out of small bills so I might as well do that errand and do the gym.

Yay Peps on your weight number and dexa result. I suspected you were building muscle mass. Good job. And yeah the olympics are fun to watch - even stuff like the bobsled is interesting. There is a funny youtube video of people doing olympic sports at an airport and using wheeled suitcases for curling...

Congrats Liz on a new fridge. Now you can start over with new stuff to toss after a year. Glad the cyst removal went well. That coffee will be great when you finally get it.

Nice sounding road trip CC. Arizona really has varying terrain and plant life. Glad you could have a fun day without worrying about Kirby being entertained. And yeah we loved Department Q. It gets better with each episode. So glad there will be season 2.

I made the hamburger cabbage dish last night. Pretty good. It would be better with some noodles but isn't everything?
